Martin Mansergh (Fianna Fail)

The criticisms made by Senator Bannon of this Bill, which could have been equally applied to any other legislation before the House, were that it was a disgrace, a shame and an embarrassment. His accusations reminded me of the great 18th century English writer who said: "There is a lot of ruin in a nation." If windy rhetoric were able to blow a party out of Government, then Senator Bannon would do so single handed.
