- Seanad: Order of Business (7 Feb 2013)
Mary White: It is the kind of night I never believed I would experience again. It was on that night that Anglo Irish Bank should have been liquidated. We, as citizens of a sovereign, proud, independent state, have been treated despicably in the past year by the European Central Bank. We will never forget this. To add to our humiliation by it, some know-all or person wanting to cause trouble in...

- Seanad: Garda Resources: Motion (6 Feb 2013)
Mary White: The Fianna Fáil Party has supported six of the Bills that the Minister has introduced in the Seanad and cannot be accused, as we were earlier, of being opportunistic. If the Government is doing good work then my party will support the Minister. As I have said before, he is one of the hardest working Ministers with responsibility for the justice portfolio that we have ever had in this...
- Seanad: Garda Resources: Motion (6 Feb 2013)
Mary White: We support the Minister when he does a good job. My party always supports the Minister when he does a good job. There has not been a proper study of the Garda since 1970. I want an independent study carried out on its resources and needs. We have heard that the patrol cars are old. Something is seriously wrong with it.
- Seanad: Order of Business (6 Feb 2013)
Mary White: I would like to follow up on what my colleagues have said about the Magdalen laundries and the ladies who were incarcerated in these gulags. I have to say our reputation has been sullied once more.

Mary White: It is important. The comment the Minister made about the boards is disingenuous. That is a good departmental response to what I said. The boards were shackled by the lack of vision of the people in the Department. I know that from my discussions with the groups.
