Seanad: Order of Business. (24 Oct 2002): Joe McHugh: ...with Seanad protocol, but will the Leader request the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources to initiate a debate in the Chamber, which would include our international diaspora, by way of tele-conferencing? I am calling for such a debate in light of the fact that local authority members and Members of the Oireachtas regularly visit Irish communities in America, Australia...
Seanad: Order of Business. (24 Oct 2002): Mary O'Rourke: ...Minister would welcome Senator McHugh's intervention when he is discussing the Digital Hub. After all, as I understand it, the Senator is talking about worldwide electronic communication with the diaspora. The Senator should raise the point with the Minister.

KildareStreet search is case-insensitive, and tries to match all the search terms within a document.
To exclude a word from your search, put a minus ("-") sign in front, for example to find documents containing the word "representation" but not the word "taxation":
representation -taxation
To search for an exact phrase, use quotes (""). For example to find only documents contain the exact phrase "Mahon Tribunal":
"mahon tribunal"
If you want to search for words only when they're used near each other in the text, use "NEAR". For example, to find documents containing the word "elephant" near the word "room":
elephant NEAR room
If the search phrase matches (part of) a TD or Senator's name, their own page will appear as the top result, but will also search speeches made by them too.
From a person's page, you have the option to search only their speeches.
