Our Rural Future Policy: Statements (14 Jun 2023): Michael Fitzmaurice: I welcome the opportunity to speak on this matter. There are some positives, including that the population has increased in rural Ireland.

The local improvement schemes have been a huge help as well and that has to be recognised. I live in rural...
Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Feb 2021): Michael Fitzmaurice: At the moment, it is not possible for somebody to do a driver theory test.

KildareStreet search is case-insensitive, and tries to match all the search terms within a document.
To exclude a word from your search, put a minus ("-") sign in front, for example to find documents containing the word "representation" but not the word "taxation":
representation -taxation
To search for an exact phrase, use quotes (""). For example to find only documents contain the exact phrase "Mahon Tribunal":
"mahon tribunal"
If you want to search for words only when they're used near each other in the text, use "NEAR". For example, to find documents containing the word "elephant" near the word "room":
elephant NEAR room
If the search phrase matches (part of) a TD or Senator's name, their own page will appear as the top result, but will also search speeches made by them too.
From a person's page, you have the option to search only their speeches.
Advanced Users: You can perform boolean searches, with brackets, AND, OR, and XOR. There are many prefixes you can use directly instead of the advanced search form, here's a selection:
- party:Lab
- department:Defence
- section:seanad OR section:wrans
- section:debates
- section:committees
- date:20120918
