Cyprian Brady (Fianna Fail)

This is a technical Bill which has been discussed at all Stages –ad nauseam, in some cases. Unfortunately, the Opposition has repeated a mistake it has made on previous occasions, namely, it confused discussion and debate with dissension. Regardless of the feelings expressed within the Fianna Fáil Party, we have concluded that the Bill will enhance local and national government. I congratulate the Minister for the Environment and Local Government, Deputy Cullen, and the Minister of State on producing it.
