- Housing and Homelessness: Statements (22 Mar 2016)
Gerry Adams: This party believes that everyone has the right to a home. We are saying clearly that our plan is about ensuring that this right is realised. The Minister knows that he took the wrong decisions. If he and the Government had taken the right decisions it would have brought this crisis to an end.
- Housing and Homelessness: Statements (22 Mar 2016)
Gerry Adams: I welcome the opportunity to make a statement on housing today, although, as I said earlier, I am disappointed that this is as close as the Dáil will get to debating very topical issues at this time. The responsibility for this and the contrived impasse in the formation of a Government lies with the two conservative parties in the House. Those in need of housing, in emergency...

Gerry Adams: I extend my condolences, once again, and my party's sympathies to the families of those who were killed or injured in Brussels this morning and I condemn in the strongest possible terms these horrendous attacks.

Gerry Adams: May I appeal to the Taoiseach to at least extend to me the courtesy of responding?
- Business of Dáil (22 Mar 2016)
Gerry Adams: I wish to make two points. I thank the Ceann Comhairle for his remarks. First, I appeal to the Taoiseach. This is within his gift. He has ordered the business of the Dáil. He said we should go away for 15 days but we do not believe we should. I appeal, through the Chair, to the Taoiseach to allow us to discuss these matters. I spoke to the Ceann Comhairle about my second point...
- Business of Dáil (22 Mar 2016)
Gerry Adams: Under Standing Order 170, I propose, as an urgent necessity, the suspension of Standing Orders to allow an urgent and meaningful debate to take place in the House today. The Government did not want us to meet this morning; that was not its initial plan. We now have a very superficial clár. This is only the second time we have met in 47 days and there are major issues, with which we...

Gerry Adams: Ba mhaith liom cead a fháil caint faoi ghnó na Dála i ndiaidh an chúpla focal atá le rá agam faoin timpiste i dTír Chonaill. Go raibh míle maith agat, a Cheann Comhairle, as ucht seans a thabhairt dom caint faoin mhéid a tharla ansin. On behalf of Sinn Féin, I want to extend our sympathy and solidarity to the McGrotty and Daniels families...

- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (10 Mar 2016)
Gerry Adams: That was conveyed to our Whip and our Whip said that was not acceptable to us. We want these issues dealt with. We also put these issues in to the Ceann Comhairle's office; other parties may have been lackadaisical about doing that but we were not and the Ceann Comhairle's office accepted the motion. Others have reasonably asked to see the motion but it is up to the Ceann Comhairle's...
- Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion (10 Mar 2016)
Gerry Adams: The crux of the issue is this - the Taoiseach said it a few moments ago - there was no intention of meeting until 6 April, as I have said. The simple question was put as to whether the business of the last Dáil can be pursued so that Ministers can answer questions and the Taoiseach said that cannot happen. I do not agree with that. We would like to put a motion to suspend Standing...
