Jerry Buttimer: I will do so. Many of us would like to see those who did wrong brought to justice and, ultimately, put behind bars, but that is a matter for the courts and the inquiry, if one is to be held.

Special Educational Needs: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (26 Jun 2013) See 1 other result from this debate

Jerry Buttimer: It is extraordinary that this motion has been brought before the House by a party that spent 14 years in government. Today, representatives of that party had the audacity to meet the parents of special needs children outside this House to feign a sharing of their indignation and concern. I remind Deputies that the result of its 14 years in at the helm was €64 billion being put into...

Jerry Buttimer: It is important that we not only develop a high level steering group, but that we have a national sexual health strategy which targets young men in the age group I mentioned. I should put on record that the Gay Men's Health clinic and Gay Health Network, along with GLEN do powerful work in communicating and working with young men.
