The criticism of the former Attorney General by Mr. Justice Fennelly had absolutely nothing to do with the overall scandal regarding the tape recording in Garda stations but had everything to do with the circumstances that led up to the midnight visit which led to the...

Appointment to the Judiciary Nomination Procedure: Statements (21 Jun 2017)

Clare Daly: She failed to inform the Minister for Justice, Deputy Shatter, and failed to verify the facts of the situation with the former Garda Commissioner. Not only that, but she presented a statement to the Fennelly Commission in February. She was asked to verify that statement in February, and she did.

Appointment to the Judiciary Nomination Procedure: Statements (21 Jun 2017)

Clare Daly: It was those circumstances that led Mr. Justice Fennelly to be highly critical of the individual in question. An individual with no trial experience. If this is the best person for the job, I wonder if the country is that small.

Appointment to the Judiciary Nomination Procedure: Statements (21 Jun 2017)

Clare Daly: Absolutely Leas-Cheann Comhairle. I was trying to put some balance to Deputy Howlin's earlier eulogising. The Taoiseach made the point earlier that this appointment was made legally and with the correct process. That is not the case. It is a red herring to say that it was not illegal. We know that it was not illegal because the current system of political appointments to the...

Building Standards, Regulations and Homeowner Protection: Motion [Private Members] (21 Jun 2017)

Clare Daly: The Minister said that the problems in construction were largely due to inadequate design, poor workmanship and improper materials. That is not quite true. That was part of the problem but it was mainly the quest for super profits by cutting corners, which was facilitated by the State's failure to have a proper system to ensure that standards were enforced and that regulation was put in...
