Covid-19 (Health): Statements (7 May 2020)

Peadar Tóibín: I raise the shockingly slow pace of Government formation in this State. Tomorrow will be 90 days since the general election took place. In the teeth of one of the largest crises the country has ever seen, we have a Taoiseach with no mandate and a Cabinet comprising some Ministers who are not Deputies. We have a Legislature which cannot legislate and a Dáil that has little ability to...

Peadar Tóibín: I recognise that the Government is working around the clock and is under massive pressure.

European Council Meeting: Statements (5 Mar 2020)

Peadar Tóibín: It is 25 days since the election, yet there is no Government with a mandate in this State. This is a scandalous situation.

Environmental Policy: Motion [Private Members] (18 Dec 2019)
