- Leaders' Questions (13 Oct 2016)
Catherine Connolly: I understand a trade agreement in our name is to be signed by the European Commission on 28 October, having been given the thumbs up by the Government. Unbelievably, it is an agreement that has not been discussed or put to a vote in this Chamber. In reality, it has not seen the light of day in Dáil Éireann. It has been left to voluntary groups, community groups, trade unions,...
- Leaders' Questions (13 Oct 2016)
Catherine Connolly: I agree with the Minister on one point, namely, that we need to consider the details of the agreement.

2015 Revenue Accounts (13 Oct 2016) Catherine Connolly: I thank Mr. Cody for coming in. He accepts all the recommendations of the Comptroller and Auditor General except two which were only part agreed. I welcome that he has come in, put his hands up and agrees with the recommendations.
