I will stick to it. I thought I was sticking to it.

My point is this. We need more leadership from within the Seanad itself. It can only come - there is still time for it to come - from the Government Senators.

I am disappointed that three of the Taoiseach’s nominees did not vote with the amendment of Senators Quinn and Norris this evening. Senator van Turnhout’s claim she voted with her conscience is not credible.
