Official Engagements. (28 Sep 2005)

Enda Kenny: While I know a greater distance is involved, clearly it is cheaper to hold a Cabinet meeting in Emo than in Cork. Does the Taoiseach plan to hold other Cabinet meetings outside Dublin this year? Does he have a list of such meetings? Is it his intention to hold them in constituencies that might be deemed to be key marginals? Does he have any report on the fulfilment of the decisions taken at...

Northern Ireland: Statements. (28 Sep 2005)

Enda Kenny: It would be most inappropriate, improper and premature for the Taoiseach to raise such an issue when so many other serious issues remain unresolved, such as criminality, racketeering, paramilitary punishment beatings, the Northern Bank raid, and the murders of Robert McCartney and Joseph Rafferty. I am glad that the Taoiseach met the Rafferty family in Dublin. That story and witnessing those...

Northern Ireland: Statements. (28 Sep 2005)

Enda Kenny: In that respect, it is not appropriate that there should be such secret meetings at which secret deals might be done on very important issues.
