- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (25 Sep 2019)
Marie Louise O'Donnell: I spent the morning listening to the Irish Medical Organisation, IMO, make its pre-budget submission. What it had to say is quite frightening. This morning, many Senators spoke about hospitals and primary care centres in their areas and they spoke about the health of their communities, villages and towns. We need to start taking the IMO very seriously, especially what it is telling us...

Marie Louise O'Donnell: No, the Senator is not multitasking at all. This place is supposed to be one where people speak and are listened to and there would be reflection, discourse and argument.

One might believe something to be true but when the facts were presented on the floor of the House one might change one's mind. We might as...

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Sep 2019)
Marie Louise O'Donnell: I congratulate the OPW on the wonderful restoration of this room. I hope our intellectual prowess and argument can parallel it. However, I do not particularly like the front door to the building. It reminds of a funereal door, into a very modern undertakers. We have lost the clink and clitch of the mahogany door and I have written to the OPW, and to the ushers, about it. Our own room...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Lusitania Museum and Related Matters: Discussion (18 Sep 2019)
Marie Louise O'Donnell: I thank the witnesses for attending. They have come a long way. I sometimes give out at this committee, wrongly or rightly, to other Deputies and Senators for being territorial, since I believe this is a national committee. I gave out to a Deputy earlier, but I was wrong. This is a brilliant national project. I congratulate the witnesses on it. What they have done as a voluntary group...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Lusitania Museum and Related Matters: Discussion (18 Sep 2019)
Marie Louise O'Donnell: I do not say it as a criticism; I am saying that the genius of the project is not being recognised. One can never tell people long and loud enough about the really great, creative things being done nationally by voluntary organisations, one of which is the witnesses' organisation. The witnesses could put their heads together and ask how they are going to let everyone in Ireland know about...
