Vote 24: Justice and Equality (26 Apr 2018) Marc MacSharry: I am certainly not doing that. I am not damning a whole generation of anybody, but I believe that we have learned by our mistakes in the past by not listening and by choosing to ignore dissenting voices.

- Topical Issue Debate: Ferry Services (1 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I thank the Leas-Cheann Comhairle for taking this matter. The Minister is aware of the issue with Inishmurray Island where the Marine Survey Office under his Department has directed that no licensed craft may land on the island. This is a very serious matter. As the Minister is not personally familiar with Inishmurray island, I will paint a picture for him. Inishmurray island is the...
