Micheál Martin: I wish to make an observation. It is my understanding that since last July nobody has got any water bills. Is that correct? I do not think they will get any in the future either. That is just a little observation when all the outrage and rhetoric is made. There was a reason for that. The programme for Government said funding would be increased for home care packages and home help...

- Leaders' Questions (12 Apr 2017)
Micheál Martin: That response - €100 million - is meaningless. The hotel money is an appalling waste. The Capuchin centre gets €450,000 and the Taoiseach is talking about €100 million for children in emergency accommodation. I will give the Taoiseach the figures again. In 2013, 4,747 children attended for meals at that centre. At the end of last year, 8,353 had attended. That says...

- Ceisteanna - Questions: Northern Ireland (11 Apr 2017)
Micheál Martin: I want to make a point through the Chair. The Northern Ireland Executive and the Assembly were deliberately scuttled on an issue that everyone knew about six months in advance, namely, the renewable heat scandal. Sinn Féin has no monopoly in the context of objecting to corruption, no more than anyone else. Tonight's "Panorama" programme might be revealing in that regard. I want to...
