- Flood Relief: Statements. (24 Nov 2009)
Timmy Dooley: I welcome the opportunity to contribute to this important debate. An unprecedented weather event has taken place.

- Adoption Bill 2009 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (18 Nov 2009)
Timmy Dooley: I welcome the opportunity to contribute to this debate. I recognise and welcome the fact that the Government, on behalf of its citizens, has decided to ratify the Hague Convention.

- Public Transport Regulation Bill 2009 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (10 Nov 2009)
