Feargal Quinn (Independent)

I join Senator Ormonde in expressing concern about the gas explosion in Dublin last week on which the Health and Safety Authority will issue a report. It is important that that report is published immediately. This week the Commission for Energy Regulation is offering tenders for gas supply to 7,000 homes in the midlands and west. There are concerns not only in Dublin with its older buildings, but throughout the country, and confidence must be restored.

In his book, Looking Under Stones, which I started to read last night, Senator O'Toole has claimed not to be a golfer but the worst footballer Kerry has ever produced.
