- Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (26 Jun 2018)
Micheál Martin: I tabled two questions regarding the Prime Minister of Spain and the Prime Minister of Italy.

- Leaders' Questions (26 Jun 2018)
Micheál Martin: I asked the Taoiseach specifically about Dublin Airport and about the performance of the Minister, Deputy Ross. If the Government was 100% behind the DAA plans, the legislation would have been passed by now. The Government has known about this for many years. The Minister got the wrong nominating body, no homework was done and there was no attention to detail. It is shocking in many ways,...
- Leaders' Questions (26 Jun 2018)
Micheál Martin: The delay in taking decisive decisions by the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport on a second runway at Dublin Airport has reached farcical levels. We know Deputy Shane Ross is no expert in transport matters.
