Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2011 [Seanad]: Second Stage (27 Sep 2011)

Pearse Doherty: During the last Dáil, when Fianna Fáil tried to rush legislation through, there were loud protests from both Fine Gael and Labour and rightly so. It is unfortunate that despite all the promises of new politics and parliamentary reform from his party during the general election, the Minister is seeking to rush through this important legislation and this is not good enough. Good legislation...

European Financial Stability Facility and Euro Area Loan Facility (Amendment) Bill 2011: Committee and Remaining Stages (21 Sep 2011)

Pearse Doherty: It is probably a unique experience, as Irish legislators, dealing with legislation we cannot amend. While we are having a debate on Committee and Report Stages, it is just for the purposes of going through the motions.

European Financial Stability Facility and Euro Area Loan Facility (Amendment) Bill 2011: Committee and Remaining Stages (21 Sep 2011)

The Minister has already spoken about Ireland coming out of the programme and there is...
