Equality (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2013 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (19 Nov 2015)

Clare Daly: I believe am sharing time with Deputy Coppinger. I was nearly going to punish the Minister of State by starting where I started last night.

Housing and Homelessness: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (18 Nov 2015)

Clare Daly: We have a housing crisis. It is an emergency. Everybody seems to realise it except the members of the Government, who are displaying ostrich-type behaviour.

Other Questions: Pyrite Panel Report Recommendations (18 Nov 2015)

Clare Daly: If any homeowner was listening in, far from thinking the process has become simpler, their head would be splitting after listening to the Minister.

Based on the Minister's response, I am not clear whether we must...
