Electoral (Amendment) (Voting at 16) Bill 2016: Committee Stage
10:30 am

The Senator contradicts what is actually in the party's policy document, which commits Fianna Fáil to legislating for voting in the 2019 local and European elections. We have it in black and white. The party is "engaging the future", but not just yet.
I urge those young people who are here today to go out and tell people what happened here. Tell people which Members stood up for their rights, who did not and who played cynical party politics; they are sitting over there.
