Order of Business. (26 Apr 2006)

Trevor Sargent: We have a long list of promised legislation and, as the Taoiseach indicated, we are expecting a general election in 2007. Are all those Bills genuinely promised or is this a pre-election list to encourage re-election on the understanding the Government will process the rest of the Bills? Are there two separate lists or can we take it that they are all promised legislation for this Dáil? It...

Leaders' Questions. (26 Apr 2006)

Trevor Sargent: On this day 20 years ago, the devastating potential of nuclear power was unleashed by the explosion of just one reactor at Chernobyl.

Leaders' Questions. (26 Apr 2006)

Trevor Sargent: Perhaps one out of four from the Taoiseach is not that bad. However, I also asked whether the fire service would have an emergency exercise to assess how we might cope. That is what it seeks, but I have not had an answer. There has never been such an exercise.

Northern Ireland Issues. (26 Apr 2006)

Trevor Sargent: I wish to return to the Taoiseach's earlier comment that the Prime Minister, Mr. Blair, is well aware of his views on the privatisation of Sellafield. I know from what he has said that he has not made a formal written submission on the British Government's nuclear plans in general, but I suggest that he should do so. He spoke a moment ago about the parties in Northern Ireland cosying up to...
