Last December 40 families lost their homes. It is...
- Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Seanad Reform (1 Dec 2015)
Gerry Adams: I want to go back to my original question, which is for the Taoiseach to report on his comments that he did not think it would be possible to introduce the planned reform of Seanad Eireann before the next election.

- Leaders' Questions (1 Dec 2015)
Gerry Adams: Today, 1 December, is the one year anniversary of the death of Jonathan Corrie no more than 20 metres from this Chamber and within sight of the Dáil. Our thoughts today are with Jonathan's family and his loved ones. His death justifiably sparked outrage at the Government's inaction and failure to tackle the ongoing housing crisis.
