Order of Business (29 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: It would be better if the Taoiseach were very clear on that so that the people along the route of this interconnector would know that they are being treated the same as other citizens who live near other proposed pylon routes.

Leaders' Questions (29 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: Tá ceist agam faoin ábhar céanna. The Taoiseach's replies have missed the point which is that there is a groundswell of opinion in opposition to the erection of a series of huge electricity pylons across the Irish countryside. EirGrid has received 35,000 submissions and there have been calls for a fair and transparent consultation process. Up until yesterday, the Taoiseach...

Leaders' Questions (29 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: We all want to see infrastructural improvements. The North-South interconnector is very important infrastructure. However, the issue is whether the power should be carried by huge pylons or underground, as is the practice is other states. I would have thought that an issue as important as this and which has been raised by Deputies from all parties and by me, should have been discussed in...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Northern Ireland Issues (28 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach mentioned the Narrow Water in his response to my earlier question. What is the mantra coming from me today? Without appearing to lecture or to preach, it is that the Irish Government is a sovereign government, or what passes for sovereign in these days, facing up to a British Government, and it needs to get it to fulfil all of its obligations. One of the things I have always...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Northern Ireland Issues (28 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: In the interests of keeping one another informed, I wish to contradict flatly something the Taoiseach said. The British Government is not supportive of these proposals. The Taoiseach needs to be very clear about this.

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Northern Ireland Issues (28 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: I am not suggesting that the British Government wants to see the situation slipping backwards or any of the rest of it. Of course it does not. If the Taoiseach wants an example of the British Government’s behaviour in those issues over which it has complete control, he has only to consider the flag. It is a British flag. It is the Union flag. Arguably, the British Government could...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Northern Ireland Issues (28 Jan 2014)

Gerry Adams: I thank the Taoiseach for his earlier answer. I welcome his assurance that there will be a series of Dáil debates about the North and about issues arising from the conflict. We need to look at how we order our business in here. We deal with the North in an ad hoc way, usually as a result of some crisis or some other difficulty in the political or the peace process. That is not the...
