Niall Ó Donnghaile: If he does, he would ask us to doff the cap, bend the knee and crawl back into a British Commonwealth. It was a shameful contribution and I hope we will all treat it with the contempt it deserves.
- Seanad: Health: Statements (21 Jun 2016)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: I am grateful for the opportunity to address to some of the issues contained in the plan.

Niall Ó Donnghaile: I have just one matter to raise. However, on listening to the contribution on Brexit from a Fianna Fáil colleague, I note I am in the unique position of having a vote in that referendum, which I will use to put Ireland first by voting to remain.

Niall Ó Donnghaile: Ba mhaith liom comhghairdeas a ghabháil leat, a Chathaoirligh.
