Seanad: Order of Business (18 Jun 2009)

Jerry Buttimer: I call on the Leader to address two specific questions in his reply on the Order of Business. Given that we are celebrating the 90th anniversary of the first Dáil, have Members on the Government side adopted a new abstentionist policy to the House?

Seanad: Departmental Reports (16 Jun 2009)

Jerry Buttimer: I thank the Cathaoirleach for again allowing me to raise the issue of the publication of the Cork docklands forum report.
