- EU Council Meetings. (11 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: I assume the Taoiseach will attend that meeting. If there is a summit meeting of the European People's Party of which I am a member, I will be happy to attend and to lend my voice to that. Did the Taoiseach confirm that a conclusion was reached at the Council meeting about the transfer of â¬100 billion in respect of the climate change challenge between now and 2020? Is he hopeful some kind...

- Leaders' Questions (10 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: We are now four weeks from the budget when the Government will attempt to put forward its choices in respect of bringing in â¬4 billion. These choices are obviously difficult. Owing to choices made in recent budgets we now find ourselves in an unprecedentedly serious situation. In 2008 some 600,000 families received child benefit in respect of 1.1 million children. These families are put...
- Leaders' Questions (10 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: I disagree with the Taoiseach. The Minister for Social and Family Affairs did not appear on a popular television programme merely to muse aloud in what has amounted to a cruel exploitation of hundreds of thousands of families who do not now know where they stand in regard to child benefit. The Taoiseach is right that organisations and individuals deserve to know with clarity what lies ahead...
- Leaders' Questions (10 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: That is our choice and we will not hide behind any other choices we have to make. We will defend those choices.

- Order of Business (10 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: I hope the Ceann Comhairle will find it within his capacity during his term to allow a Standing Order 32 debate. It would be good for the record.
- Order of Business (10 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: The Ceann Comhairle has quickly fallen into the rut of not seeing these issues as important. In respect of the Road Traffic Bill 2009, I understand from reports that the equipment used for measuring the alcohol level in people brought to Garda stations must be recalibrated at a significant cost. When is it proposed to take the Bill in the House? Will it be taken next year or will it be...

- Official Engagements. (10 Nov 2009)
Enda Kenny: I share many of the Taoiseach's views with regard to Ireland's relationship with the United States. I had a recent brief meeting with Ambassador Rooney. He is a good man with a great love of Ireland and I am confident he will do whatever he can to continue the very strong relationship between our two countries. Is the Taoiseach happy with the reports from IDA Ireland in respect of the...
