- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (26 Feb 2019)
Danny Healy-Rae: I suppose the Taoiseach is aware that a €5 million contract was lost recently. A Libyan cattle buyer who wanted to buy 400 bulls had applied for a visa in mid-November to come to this country to see what he was buying. To date, he has been given no account of the status of his visa. He has now gone to Spain to purchase these animals. Previous taoisigh and Ministers for justice and...

Who is going to be policing these boundaries? If someone wants to go to the...
