- Leaders' Questions (28 May 2015)
Timmy Dooley: The question is the one the Tánaiste unfortunately failed to answer. Will she stall the vote this evening? Will she allow for an appropriate discussion of all the facts involving all the stakeholders before the Joint Committee on Transport and Communications?
- Leaders' Questions (28 May 2015)
Timmy Dooley: Next week is available to us. There would be no hesitation on the part of Members from any side of the House to come back for a couple of days so that the committee can tease through this. It would also then allow the people ultimately to see what is happening. The Tánaiste might not convince me, but she might convince some of her own backbenchers and some the people outside this...

Timmy Dooley: However, from what I have seen in this report, it certainly supports the contention that the Government is rushing the decision in this House because it does not want all the facts to be made available. If the Tánaiste is in any doubt as to Aer Lingus's intentions-----

- Order of Business (28 May 2015)
Timmy Dooley: We do not agree. Not all the facts about the proposed sale of Aer Lingus are available to Members of the House or to the Irish people. If we are to discharge our duties in line with our mandate, we need the information. I have additional sections of the Nyras report, if the Tánaiste wants it.

- Order of Business (28 May 2015)
Timmy Dooley: Another set of documents was presented to the Tánaiste by a different usher without intervention by the clerk.
