That provoked some speakers and I am interested that Senator Harris found his voice. I was confused as to his position on the Taoiseach and the Mahon tribunal, although an article in last Sunday's national newspaper gave some indication in a panegyric about statues being erected in Belfast and Dublin to the Taoiseach. This is based on a dangerous myth with dangerous consequences because it suggests that the Taoiseach is of such a nature that statues are being built to him and that he must be exempt from scrutiny, investigation or, as a Deputy of the Lower House said, prosecution.
