Northern Ireland Issues (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: I have 11 of these questions. Five of them are what I would consider questions of substance. Most of those relate to parts of agreements between the Irish and British Governments and some relate to parts of international agreements. Therefore, I would like the opportunity to come back on them. I will concentrate, if I could, on the Pat Finucane killing and the Government's efforts on that....

Northern Ireland Issues (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: I wish to return to the Pat Finucane case. I agree with the Taoiseach's expression of concern for all the victims. Sinn Féin represents many of those victims. I know many of them and their families. They include members of my family, so I have an affinity with what the Taoiseach said on the issue. The Taoiseach also took the opportunity of responding to my question about Pat Finucane to...

Northern Ireland Issues (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: Yes. To return to the question about Pat Finucane, I would like if the Taoiseach will go further than simply noting the suggestions I made. If a government has an agreement with another government and the other government breaches that agreement, there is a duty on the government that is the injured party to draw upon the strengths, influence and goodwill it has to seek adjudication on the...

Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach might know this but for his information, the decision on the M2-A5 project was part of the St. Andrews Agreement.

Order of Business (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: It is not agreed. The referral to committee, without debate, of Vote 34, dealing with jobs, enterprise and innovation, relates to an underspend in Enterprise Ireland of €12 million. Given that there is such a crisis for indigenous enterprises and their difficulties and failure to source funding, there should be a debate on why €12 million has been underspent in Enterprise Ireland. I...

Order of Business (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: I understand that. We wanted to debate it before it is referred. Every one of us has taken complaints and queries from small businesses that cannot get funding, yet this is a €12 million underspend.

Order of Business (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: It is not agreed but I have made my point. We wanted a debate. Deputy Micheál Martin has been helpful by telling me that we can go to the committee and so forth but that is besides the point.

Order of Business (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: Not yet.

Order of Business (29 Nov 2011)

Gerry Adams: I oppose the guillotine imposed on the debate. This totally flies against the Taoiseach's assertion that he seeks a more open, inclusive and transparent Dáil. Half an hour is allocated for more than 20 amendments of which our party has put forward a substantial number. Our Deputies have done their work diligently but the debate will not get beyond the second or third amendment.
