Northern Ireland Issues. (14 Feb 2006)

Trevor Sargent: Does the Taoiseach accept that to many people outside the House, and maybe inside it too, the peace process looks becalmed, like a duck floating on a pond, notwithstanding that its feet may be paddling away furiously below the surface of the water?

Order of Business. (9 Feb 2006)

Trevor Sargent: Before I ask regarding promised legislation, perhaps I might inquire regarding the report in today's newspapers about the Government Chief Whip, Deputy Kitt, who, although not present at a rezoning vote in 1992, received £2,000 and failed to declare the payment.

Future of Irish Farming: Motion (Resumed). (8 Feb 2006)
