- Leaders' Questions (11 Dec 2013)
Enda Kenny: This applies whether it is to supply water for this city for the next 50 years or to supply quality water for major infrastructure projects that need huge quantities of it and so on. Do we want to deal with these problems or do we want to shove them aside? As far as I am concerned, we must deal with the future. We exit the bailout programme on Sunday. On Monday, we stand as a free member...
- Leaders' Questions (11 Dec 2013)
Enda Kenny: We still must provide power for infrastructure in order that we can have jobs in Donegal, west Kerry, Wexford and everywhere else. We cannot have that unless we have basic infrastructure. To do that, there is a process in law and a planning process that must be adhered to and determined independently. This is not a case of a Government diktat. It is a case of talking about what kind of...
- Leaders' Questions (11 Dec 2013)
Enda Kenny: What I can confirm to Deputy Ó Caoláin is that the process followed here is well known to him. Deputy Ó Caoláin was at the meeting yesterday. He is aware of the Minister's intention to attend the committee once due process has been followed in respect of provision of the HSE service plan. The budget takes place in October. Then there is a Vote given for the health...
- Leaders' Questions (11 Dec 2013)

There is always consternation and controversy in the country on issues such as the development of dual carriageways or motorways, the provision of gas lines or wind turbines or, in this case, upgrade and expansion of the electricity grid. As leader of the Fianna...

- Order of Business (10 Dec 2013)
Enda Kenny: Ba mhaith liom go mbeadh sé de ghnáth go gcuirfear na cinn faoi bhráid na gcoistí. Tarlóidh sé sin i gcás gach uile Bhille tar éis na Nollag nuair a thosóidh an chéad seisiún eile. B'fhéidir go gcuirfear cuid de na cinn chuig na coistí idir seo agus sin. Tarlóidh sé mar is gnách i gcás gach Bille tar...

- Death of Nelson Mandela: Statements (10 Dec 2013)
Enda Kenny: It was with great sadness that we learned last week of the passing of Nelson Mandela - a global icon, a true champion of people of all nations and without question the greatest statesman of our generation. The mark he left on our world is indelible. His epic battle against injustice and discrimination is a powerful reminder of our responsibilities to stand up for what is right. Today, we...

Enda Kenny: This is a procedural matter. When one brings in an amendment that is outside the scope of the Bill, one has to have a procedural motion in order to discuss the amendment. That is the only reason for it.
