Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

I hope we will be able to discuss Senator Coghlan's housing Bill before the summer recess.

Senator Kitt spoke about the voting register and the need to rely on a census to fill the register. Senator Quinn referred to a decision of a judge in Northern Ireland in which he deemed the Continuity IRA and the Real IRA not to be subversive bodies. That decision has been appealed. He also pointed out to Senator Leyden that the price of pint in 1966 was 2s. 6d. What was each person earning at that time?

Senator Bradford claimed that no steps were being taken to promote democracy, while Senator Feighan spoke about voter registration. He pointed out that a particular Roscommon Senator has learned Portuguese. All I can say is hasta la vista.
