Alan Kelly: When the programme told Dr. McKenna that there would be a meeting to sort it out, he believed it would be. Since he thought it had been sorted, he did not feel that there was a need to follow it up.

Alan Kelly: I find it bizarre. The minutes of this meeting are important, yet so many people did not even bother to partake that there were no minutes of the next meeting. The first meeting called was the September meeting. People came together because of this issue - let us call a spade a spade - but there are still no minutes of the follow-up meeting because it is obviously such a damning issue. I...

Alan Kelly: I hope Mr. Connaghan has taken away a lot more than what he just said. I would be absolutely devastated for the people I represent, for Vicky Phelan and Stephen Teap, if Mr. Connaghan only took away from this meeting what he just said.

Alan Kelly: I am lost for words to be honest. The strength that both of the witnesses have shown is frankly incredible. Vicky does not live that far away from me even though we live in different counties. We will be shouting against one another on Sunday when Limerick plays Tipperary. With regard to the way in which Stephen has told his story in such a short space of time, because he has not known...

Alan Kelly: Open disclosure? Come on, open disclosure is a joke. I look at the letters that were drafted. Cian made reference to them earlier. There was that awful commentary to the effect that in cases where the woman died, the result should simply be recorded. I think of Irene and what was going on until Vicky blew the lid off it and then she was communicated with. Then they had to tell her....
