Leaders' Questions (2 Apr 2014)

Gerry Adams: The difficulty with dealing with all of these ongoing controversies in the administration of justice is that every day brings a new revelation, such as the taping of prisoners' telephone calls and the latest twist last night in the penalty points debacle. However, there are other distractions. While I have no confidence in the Minister, Deputy Shatter, it was nauseating to listen to the...

Leaders' Questions (2 Apr 2014)

Gerry Adams: -----so the Oireachtas should keep its focus on what is involved here. Yesterday I made the point, and the Taoiseach agreed, that the Ian Bailey case is at the root of these problems. This arose from the investigation of the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier. Ian Bailey's solicitor wrote three times in 2012 to the Minister, Deputy Shatter, about the Garda Commissioner's refusal to...

Leaders' Questions (2 Apr 2014)

Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach's answer is very disappointing because I am not clear whether he is going to include these matters in the commission of investigation, or whether he is going to set up a separate commission of investigation.

Leaders' Questions (8 Apr 2014)

Gerry Adams: Ná déan dearmad faoi Mary Robinson fosta. Rinne sí obair thábhachtach mar Uachtarán. Nuair a bhí an Taoiseach ag caint faoi Gráinne Mhaol, agus nuair a luaigh sé an focal "maol", bhí mé ag amharc ar an Aire Airgeadais. Nílim ach ag magadh anois. Gabhaim leithscéal.

Leaders' Questions (8 Apr 2014)

Gerry Adams: Tá fhios agam. We need to celebrate peace on the streets as well as in the big houses and palaces. It needs to be felt in loyalist hinterlands and republican communities.
