- Leaders' Questions (27 Jan 2015)
Gerry Adams: Críochnóidh mé anois. It is also believed that if IAG were to take over, most of the senior decision-making posts, the executive posts, would be transferred to London.

- Leaders' Questions (27 Jan 2015)
Gerry Adams: Concerns about the potential sell-off of Aer Lingus will not have been assuaged by the Taoiseach's answer. My concern is the Government will follow the example of Fianna Fáil on this issue, as it has on so many other issues. When Fianna Fáil privatised Aer Lingus, Sinn Féin opposed it tooth and nail, and an Teachta Martin was a very prominent member of the Government at the...

- Junior Cycle Reform: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (21 Jan 2015)
Gerry Adams: I ask her to refrain from speaking about coming back from cuts given what her Government has imposed on public services. Teachers are not being given the necessary supports in terms of continuous professional development and whole school in-service training. If these supports are not provided, we will be creating the potential for future difficulties. The Minister spoke about the need to...

- Junior Cycle Reform: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (21 Jan 2015)
Gerry Adams: Molaim an tairiscint. In his contribution, the Minister spoke a few times about whether Sinn Féin is genuine about it.

First under Martin McGuinness,...

- Junior Cycle Reform: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (21 Jan 2015)
Gerry Adams: That is what is possible when there is a vision, strategy and people with a commitment to make these things happen. That is what is desperately needed in this State and this Government. When I raised this issue with the Taoiseach this morning, he acknowledged that teachers are professionals. That means that they are the specialists. They know about the job, career and vocation they...

Gerry Adams: ----- it strikes me that while the Taoiseach states the Government wishes to give more time to more speakers, it does this by cutting an hour and a half off the time allocated. It is supposed to go on until 5.30 p.m.
