Leaders' Questions (16 Feb 2012)

Mary Lou McDonald: The Tánaiste claims there is a priority and an urgency around making these homes safe, with which I agree. However, there is no signal of urgency on the part of the Government.

Finance Bill 2012: Second Stage (Resumed) (15 Feb 2012)

Mary Lou McDonald: During this debate it has become clear that the Government is completely disconnected from the realities that face low and middle-income families or perhaps it is uninterested.
