Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: The question I need to ask the Taoiseach is whether he is aware of the meetings of the Shell committee of managing directors in London prior to the commencement of the Shell project when it discussed whether the company had sufficiently well-placed contacts in the Irish Government and among the Irish regulators, an instance which it said it would investigate further and which set the scene...

Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: If the Taoiseach is not aware of these instances, will he make himself aware of them and visit the residents, his constituents, and tell them how he reconciles this with his previous statements that we are on the cusp of a new Garda regime?

Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: The Taoiseach has very much clarified matters for his constituents, which is probably one of the reasons Fine Gael now has diminished representation on Mayo County Council. He seems to be very well versed with the propaganda of Shell, as is his colleague sitting in front of me, Deputy Grealish. Perhaps he got this information on his visit in February when he took time out to go to Shell and...

Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: She was the subject of Garda manhandling. The Taoiseach told us previously that the acting Garda Commissioner represents a new police force. Will the Taoiseach make contact with this family, in whose kitchen he drank tea before he reached his elevated status, and asked them what happened?

Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: Will the Taoiseach once and for all deal with these issues in the area? Will he tell us how this possibly represents a new Garda force?

Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: The whole issue of inquiries has been very much in vogue with much chatter over the weekend. The focus, however, has been on the wrong inquiries. It is quite clear that the toothless banking inquiry is not going to expose anything, except maybe a few politicians to a bit of badly needed publicity.

Leaders' Questions (17 Jun 2014)

Clare Daly: It has dawned on many citizens now that the Oireachtas inquiry into banking has about as much chance of getting to the bottom of what happened in the banking sector as Billy Bunter would have in finding out who robbed the school tuckshop. It is a joke. Instead, maybe the Taoiseach will focus on a different inquiry, one which might have the chance of actually succeeding, if he had the will...
