Seanad: Order of Business (10 Jul 2012)

Caít Keane: Like the others speakers, I believe I was the first in the House to raise the pilot training issue last Wednesday. I am not satisfied it is being addressed with the urgency it demands. There seems to be an authority in charge of every second thing in the country. The Irish Aviation Authority appears to be washing its hands of this problem. The statement on its website suggests it is...

Seanad: Order of Business (11 Jul 2012)

Caít Keane: What I have to say will not be as heart-rending as what Senator O'Brien had to say just now. I support Senator Ivana Bacik's comments on the Euroscience Open Forum.

This is a major achievement for Ireland. There...

Seanad: Access to Cancer Treatment Bill 2012: Second Stage (11 Jul 2012)

Seanad: Access to Cancer Treatment Bill 2012: Second Stage (11 Jul 2012)

Caít Keane: To say that any Minister of State would be led into this House with a noose around her neck to jump through hoops is a total insult. She is an opinionated Minister of State and I admire her.

Seanad: Access to Cancer Treatment Bill 2012: Second Stage (11 Jul 2012)

Caít Keane: We will reread it into the record of the House tomorrow. I admire Senator Crown and his expertise in the field is second to none.
