Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (27 Apr 2023)

Paul Murphy: That was quite an incredible display of bluff, bluster and attempted distraction from what has been happening. The Tánaiste did not answer any of the questions. Why has the Government, with the support of so-called Independents, voted to block any questioning of the Minister of State, Deputy Niall Collins?

Paul Murphy: I am not convinced by the Minister of State's response. Towards its conclusion, he outlined the consequences of being convicted of a hate crime, including a higher sentence and being labelled as a hate criminal. It is a serious offence.
