Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: The Benefits of e-Conveyancing: Discussion (25 Jun 2014)

Seán Kenny: My third question follows on from Mr. Dorgan's point that some people do not ask legal practitioners about how good they are. They just want to know how much the service will cost.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Luas Cross City Line and Future of Public Transport in Dublin: National Transport Authority (25 Jun 2014)

Seán Kenny: I asked a question about the growth in services. The fact that passenger numbers on buses and rail increased recently is very welcome. It is a very welcome sign.
