Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements
Dail Éireann — 2022-11-30
============================================================

Catherine Connolly (CC), Galway West

There are two things. The comments were made yesterday. No one asked to have them withdrawn yesterday. In that time, the Taoiseach said it was in the rough and tumble of politics. That was accepted yesterday to a certain degree. The Deputy came back today legitimately and asked for the questions to be withdrawn. He came back a second time during a question, which was possibly inappropriate. I hear what has been said. The Taoiseach said it is in the rough and tumble of politics. Allegations have been made on both sides. I am going to leave it like that for the moment. The Deputy asked us to consider it; I hear that. We are over time.
