Seanad: Finance Bill 2011: Second Stage (28 Jan 2011)

Fiona O'Malley: I am sure the people of Dublin Central will, in their wisdom, choose him. I hope they will because the Senator has always contributed a great deal. I was prompted to say that even before he had indicated that he did not intend to return to the House. Previous speakers, particularly Senator Boyle, repeatedly referred to higher taxation and stated we taxed too little and we spent too much....

Seanad: Finance Bill 2011: Second Stage (28 Jan 2011)

Fiona O'Malley: In one way, I regret that is not the case because it would have required all Members to be honest about what they are offering the people. Fine Gael and the Labour Party were divided on the scale of the adjustment to be made this year with one proposing €6 billion and the other €4.5 billion. However, the Taoiseach and the Minister for Finance know it is in the country's interest and...

Seanad: Order of Business (26 Jan 2011)

Fiona O'Malley: I agree with the points made by Senator Ellis. Within an hour the general election may be called. The one thing the people need at the time of the general election is honesty, and that honesty will be demonstrated firstly by what the Opposition does at this point and whether it will be true. As Members have said, while the Labour Party in particular has stated that it is in the national...

Seanad: Order of Business (26 Jan 2011)

Fiona O'Malley: The people deserve that honesty and they should get it at this first point when the vote is taken in the Dáil. I cannot understand why Fianna Fáil and the Government have decided to stick with it because they are only making a rod for their own backs as they go. They will be brutalised in the general election when this happens because both major Opposition parties, while they recognise its...

Seanad: Export-led Growth: Motion (19 Jan 2011)

Fiona O'Malley: I welcome the opportunity to speak to the motion, particularly in the light of the amendment tabled to it. The motion provides the House with an opportunity to unite behind our export success story, but, unfortunately, the Opposition has not responded to it. The amendment condemns the Government for not being competitive enough. I find that deeply hypocritical, given that we have listened...
