- Nomination of Taoiseach (7 May 2008)
John Moloney: I cannot beat you on that, a Cheann Comhairle. I join with everybody in the House in my congratulations. I want to be realistic.

John Moloney: Notwithstanding the finding of the court, we had to wait two further years. Were it not for the political motivation of Opposition members of the health board this sad debacle would not have occurred. I have one piece of advice to impart.
