Seanad: Order of Business (24 Feb 2015)

Paul Coghlan: ...has less chance of becoming allergic, but what do I know of that matter? The Senator wants a debate on it and I am sure that we can arrange one in early course. Senator O'Sullivan agreed with the Apple proposal regarding Athenry, but pointed out that the IDA had provided no jobs in the south west recently.

Seanad: Order of Business (17 Dec 2013)

Paul Coghlan: Of course. There are bad apples everywhere as those in Fianna Fáil know. We are all subject to original sin and we are all human. There is capacity for good and bad in everyone. Let us not run away with ourselves. The matter in question is being dealt with. I accept that it is serious but it is not the House's place to deal with it. Rather, it is being dealt with by the Garda...

The councillors of this country give of themselves unstintingly but unfortunately there were a few bad apples. The tribunal of inquiry began in 1997 and had over 900 public sittings and called more than 400 witnesses, with many thousands of pages of evidence and correspondence. It is important...

No doubt Senators will be...

Seanad: Order of Business (13 Nov 2007)

Paul Coghlan: ...to a large extent because of its membership. We now know that public trust in the legal profession is at an all-time low for perhaps understandable reasons, even if it is only caused by a few bad apples. Among other things, undertakings have not been put in place and have been dishonoured. Has the Government proposals for an independent regulatory authority? I look forward to the...

Paul Coghlan: ...be the same as those applicable in Northern Ireland. In their daily policing duties, most members of the force perform in a highly admirable and commendable way.

Seanad: Order of Business. (16 Apr 2003)

Paul Coghlan: ...for the Environment and Local Government to come before the House to debate the matter?
