- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (9 Oct 2019)
Terry Leyden: I second the welcome to the former Senator, Maurice Cummins, a former Leader of the House, and a man who is partly responsible for us being here today.

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (9 Oct 2019)
Terry Leyden: I do not particularly want to be out there. My point is that I would prefer it if the public had a right to see these artworks in the National Gallery instead of them being stuck out in RTÉ where nobody can see them. They are now going to Sotheby's in London, a British company, to be sold instead going to Irish companies. It is outrageous. RTÉ is losing its way. I am member of...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: European Court of Auditors Annual Report: Discussion (16 Oct 2019)
Terry Leyden: I welcome the delegation, which has a serious job to do. The way we operate European Union regulations is way above and beyond anything else in Europe. It is unreal. I do not know who is pushing it but the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine is unreal. It checks and measures every section of the land. My son has a farm which has an area beside a river which had to be cut...
