Questions on Promised Legislation (23 Nov 2017)

Mary Lou McDonald: The programme for Government makes numerous commitments to older people, empowering women, protecting children and young people and equality and inclusiveness. It appears that when it comes to the survivors of the Magdalen laundries all of these worthy commitments go out the window. Following a comprehensive investigation into the administration of the Magdalen restorative justice scheme,...

Leaders' Questions (23 Nov 2017)

Mary Lou McDonald: We have now spent over a week discussing this email, the e-mail which outlined the very malicious strategy designed by former Garda Commissioner Nóirín O'Sullivan and her legal team to destroy the reputation and the life of Sergeant Maurice McCabe.

Mary Lou McDonald: Why did she sit idly by as the plan to discredit Sergeant McCabe unfolded? She said that she could not remember the email but I do not accept that because the political controversy surrounding Maurice McCabe had already led to the resignation of a Minister for Justice and Equality and a Garda Commissioner. It centred on allegations against Sergeant McCabe of which the Tánaiste was...

Leaders' Questions (23 Nov 2017)

Mary Lou McDonald: In fact, it was worse than that because what the Tánaiste did do was continue to express unwavering confidence in the then Garda Commissioner O'Sullivan after the fact. She also continued to parrot this line that the whistleblower would enjoy protection from the Government. It was initially claimed by An Taoiseach, presumably after discussions with her, that the Tánaiste had no...

Leaders' Questions (23 Nov 2017)

Mary Lou McDonald: It goes to the heart of her integrity and that of her Government and it will not stand. Can the Tánaiste afford us clarity now and can she give an account for her failures?
