David Norris (Independent) | Oireachtas source

I found that out today, and the source is unimpeachable and was directly personally involved. That is the truth. It is for that reason I want this Bill to be rejected.

University graduates were singled out by the Minister. It is a wonder to me that the Government did not have the guts to go the whole hog and use the word "Protestant" as quite a number of the correspondents who wrote in the media did. They derided what they called the Protestant ascendancy antics and so on. There is a little veil of sectarianism underneath this and Senator Barrett is right that it will not wash in the North.
