Frances Fitzgerald (Fine Gael)

Yesterday we saw unanimous and widespread condemnation of the brutal murders of two soldiers and a young police constable, whose wife said this morning that she felt her life was over as well. It was good to see the political unity of all parties, North and South, and I ask the Leader to arrange time for an all-party motion in this House to express our condemnation and outrage at these killings. It is important — I know every Senator would agree — that we send a loud and clear message on our views on these horrific deaths. I hope the Leader will be able to organise that, either today or tomorrow.
