Martin Mansergh (Fianna Fail)

I strongly agree with the point made by Senator Norris about appropriate uses of churches. In Aberdeen there are ex-churches, now night-clubs, which offer for sale cocktails called the Seven Deadly Sins. It is an invitation to mock religion. There should be some limits on what former churches are used for.

I would welcome an informed debate on primary school buildings. As a candidate in the last general election my impression was that it was one of the biggest issues in the election. People were coming from every quarter looking for commitments.
