- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach and the Government were elected because of the widespread anger at how the previous Government had behaved. He clearly knew that the people wanted equality and transparency and they still do.
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach promised to bring this about, but his promises were cynical and not based on any real conviction. It was rhetoric that tapped into the people's hope and desire to have society organised fairly. There is little talk nowadays from the Taoiseach about the Government's five point plan because, of course, it was never a plan but a PR device. On the Taoiseach's watch there has been...
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: We have a more divided society, an ever-worsening housing crisis, the closure of Garda stations and post offices, while the health service is in chaos.
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach also promised to deliver political reform.
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: He promised that every vacancy to fill a paid directorship on a State board would be advertised through the Public Appointments Service. He said the directors of all State bodies would be asked to resign and reapply for their positions within six months of a Fine Gael-led Government taking power.
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: None of this happened. The Government stole Fianna Fáil's social and economic policies and also perpetuated its culture of cronyism and political patronage. In the past week the Tánaiste, Deputy Joan Burton, chose to appoint Mr. David Begg as chairperson of the Pensions Authority. The arrogant way in which she did this, irrespective of Mr. Begg's suitability, made a mockery of...
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: In my question I tried to contrast the rhetoric as the Taoiseach tapped into widespread public anger and his failure to deliver on the promises he had made. He avoided answering that when he responded and is skirting around the issue. He made detailed promises on political reform. He promised a public appointments Act that has never materialised. Why? The Taoiseach promised a vote in...
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: They want a caring society and they want to be treated as citizens but the Taoiseach treats them as fools. He has blustered and bluffed his way through all of this. Apart from the demographic that Fine Gael is targeting at the next election, increasing numbers of people know he will not bring this about because he has no conviction about these issues.
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: Yesterday, and again today, the Taoiseach expressed confidence in the Tánaiste. He has little choice, however, as they are in this together, recycling the old politics of cronyism and insider machinations which are the opposite of the democratic revolution the Taoiseach promised. It is time for the Taoiseach to go. I said it yesterday.
- Leaders' Questions (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach has run his race and failed the people. Will he please let the people have their say on the past five years of failed politics, particularly, but not exclusively, on this failure and refusal to bring in the type of reform which he promised?

I mo bharúil, theip ar an Rialtas an Ghaeilge a...
- Order of Business (20 Jan 2016)
Gerry Adams: Maith go leor. The health information Bill has faced significant delays. We have still not seen the Bill. Could the Taoiseach tell us when the Bill will be published?
