Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

With regard to contributions on the Order of Business, I remind all Members of the House of all hues that it is an opportunity for them to come into the House to raise a matter. Please be cognisant that in referencing people, whether members of government, NGOs, political bodies, political organisations or whomever, they are not here to defend themselves; they are outside of the House. I ask Members to please be careful in their remarks. Equally, regarding the Electoral Commission, it is an impartial independent group separate from any of us in the Oireachtas. I ask Members to be cognisant of that when making allegations about it. That applies to all Members, including myself.

Ar son gach ball den Seanad, cuirim fáilte mhór roimh ghaelscoil as Luimneach, Gaelscoil Chaladh an Treoigh. Bhí rang eile ón scoil anseo cheana. Tá céad míle fáilte roimh na daltaí agus na múinteoirí. Anois ba mhaith liom glaoch ar an Seanadóir Robbie Gallagher.
