Nicky McFadden (Fine Gael)

The issues surrounding the Taoiseach and his finances and personal affairs are deflecting from the serious issues facing our country. Senators Harris and Corrigan both spoke passionately about depression and psychiatric illness. The Minister still has not graced this House to discuss these serious issues. It would be more in our line to discuss such serious issues in the Seanad. I feel passionate about this. The public at large will not thank us for this carry on.
