Gateway Scheme: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (12 Mar 2014)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I did withdraw it. Ghlac mé leis nár chóir dom é sin a rá agus tharraing mé siar é. The Minister repeated what Deputy Jim Daly said. He is trying continually to distract from the issue at hand. With his newfound interest in the North, he might stand in elections there because he does not have a clue what he is talking about. The Youth Employment Scheme...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Gabhaim buíochas leo siúd a ghlac páirt sa díospóireacht. Bíonn sé i gcónaí go maith éisteacht a thabhairt, ní hamháin dóibh siúd a aontaíonn ach chomh maith leo siúd nach n-aontaíonn, in ainneoin an chacamais a bhí á rá ag roinnt acu.

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I recommend that this petition be forwarded to the Joint Committee on Health and Children, as the Minister for Health is responsible for the legalisation or not of different substances, and to the Joint Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality to ask it if it could deliberate on this issue, as it is one that is constantly raised.

We have received correspondence from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade but I do not think it addresses all the points raised by Dr. Horgan. He referred in particular to a High Court judgment in 2003 which found Ireland to be in breach of international laws on neutrality. The State took no action on foot of that judgment. He also makes...
