Neale Richmond: I thank the Social Democrats for bringing forward this motion. As I proceed to completely disagree with them, I say it is a good thing that we were able to have a frank and open debate in the Chamber. I agree with Deputy O'Donoghue's paying credit to the men and women of the Defence Forces and the service they give to the State currently and have given previously. It is with great pride...

We have called on all parties to respect the ceasefire and hostage release deal, and for an immediate end to hostilities, and a return to talks aimed at implementing the second phase of the deal.

I will refer this matter to the Minister for Defence, but I cannot give any guarantees because it is important that there is no such thing as ministerial intervention in the operation of or recruitment by the Defence Forces. However, I will...
- International Security and International Trade: Statements (20 Mar 2025)
Neale Richmond: I greatly appreciate the opportunity to reply the many points made across what has been an exhaustive and extensive debate on international security and international trade at such a crucial time in geopolitics.

- International Security and International Trade: Statements (20 Mar 2025)
Neale Richmond: We are more than happy to have pre-legislative scrutiny to engage with those with whom we agree and disagree. It is a fundamental and long-standing position of my party. With respect to Deputy Paul Murphy, I have been going to Fine Gael Ard-Fheiseanna for more than 20 years - I presume he has not been to any; I really hope he has not – and I have spoken on countless motions that make...
