- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (17 Nov 2020)
Catherine Murphy: In 2017, there was a contribution in the House and the question then from the now Taoiseach was about the lack of judicial experience. I would have though it was self-evident that this particular aspect would have been fully interrogated when it came to the appointment of a Supreme Court judge. The fact that the Taoiseach was not made aware that there were other judges who had applied...
