Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Galway City Council, for example, is only obliged to keep a horse for five days. Is the Minister saying it will then be allowed to sell it or give it to a better home if one can be found? It wants to be sure that it is covered legally in that regard.

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Is there a maximum from a funding perspective? There is not an infinite budget. That was the councils' problem. They would have spent about €90,000 last year on the issue.

Seanad: Animal Health and Welfare Bill 2012: Committee Stage (Resumed) (23 May 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: That is all right. Go raibh míle maith agat. I will make the opposite case to previous Senators. The legislation is an example of good co-operation between the North and South because it is in line with the legislation in the North.

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Gabhaim míle buíochas leis an Aire Stáit. Cuireann a fhreagra ríméad orm mar bhí go leor daoine den tuairim go raibh an togra seo marbh. Is breá a cloisteáíl go mbeidh sé ag tarlú. Tá ríméad orm faoi sin agus tréaslaím leis an Aire Stáit as an bhreagra. Táimid ag súil go mór le seo. Tá ceist bheag amháin agam.

Seanad: Order of Business (24 May 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: They probably had Brussel sprouts. We are voting on an austerity package that will lumber us with extra austerity on top of what we are already suffering under the troika deal. The people have not been hood-winked. To clarify for the House, the debate that my leader, Deputy Adams, is willing to have is with the leader of the Government's campaign, namely, the Taoiseach. He would have no...
