- Northern Ireland: Statements (15 Jul 2015)
Gerry Adams: The example has been set. We are not revisionists. One of the disturbing aspects of Deputy Micheál Martin's contribution was his departure from the wide pro-agreement consensus across the island in recent years. On more than one occasion he has sought to denigrate the political institutions in the North and to erect new barriers to Sinn Féin's full and equal participation-----

- Northern Ireland: Statements (15 Jul 2015)
Gerry Adams: What I want to appeal to him to do, for the third time, is to organise his party in the North. There are people in Ballymurphy who are waiting; there are people on the Bogside who are waiting; there are people in Crossmaglen who cannot sleep at night at the prospect of it coming North-----
- Northern Ireland: Statements (15 Jul 2015)
Gerry Adams: Fine Gael should so the same, as should the Labour Party. The peace process is the most important political project on the island.

- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (22 Sep 2015)
Gerry Adams: I wish to repeat, if I may, what the Chief Whip read out to Members: "there shall be no Order of Business... Oral Questions to the Taoiseach and private notice Questions shall not be taken... matters may not be raised under the provisions of Standing Order 32... on specific and important matters of public interest." This is what the Chief Whip is asking Members to support-----
- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (22 Sep 2015)
Gerry Adams: -----namely, they should not do business here today. Also, Members were only handed this, or I was anyway, ten minutes before coming to the Chamber. The decision by the Government to introduce a motion of confidence in the Taoiseach is no great surprise. While that is fair enough, if Members have learned anything on these benches over the past four years it is about the arrogance and...

- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (22 Sep 2015)
Gerry Adams: There is a deep problem. There is a deep problem about homelessness and Members do not have the opportunity to discuss it. Every day, Members read about the tens of thousands of refugees in coffin ships who are dying by the scores. One hears it on the news every evening but Members have no opportunity to discuss it.
- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (22 Sep 2015)
Gerry Adams: Moreover, they have no opportunity to discuss the Fennelly report. Let me state again for the record that I would have had no objections, had the Taoiseach gone to the Cabinet and asked for majority support for the resignation of the Garda Commissioner. That would have been the appropriate and proper thing to do. However, he did not do that. He did not give the Garda Commissioner the...
- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (22 Sep 2015)
Gerry Adams: The media management that rolled out on the day the interim report was given to the Government or when it was published at least was a class act. The Taoiseach put himself forward to answer questions on the report that no one except him had read.
- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (22 Sep 2015)
Gerry Adams: None of the journalists who questioned him that evening had even read the report so he got his spin in first. The Dáil has been denied the opportunity to discuss that.
