Seanad: Election of Cathaoirleach (16 Dec 2022)

Ned O'Sullivan: It is a pleasure for me, politically and personally, to address Senator Buttimer as Cathaoirleach. He is well entitled to aspire to the position.

I always admire people in politics who take it on the chin and get on with the work when little setbacks some. From my experience...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (8 Nov 2022)

Ned O'Sullivan: Members may know I come from the town of Listowel and am proud to say that. The town has been making headlines recently for all the wrong reasons.
