Recent Arson Attacks: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2024-02-27
============================================================

Mattie McGrath (IND), Tipperary

I want to rebut some of the claims made here earlier by people who are now far distant. People like us who were looking for a debate on the issue of migration were not in the Chamber. We all have committees and a lot of committees were sitting today. I was listening in my office to some of the diatribe. I point out that when we had our motion, we did not have a quorum for the whole motion.
The Minister for Justice said last week in Thurles that she has to "push back very strongly" against claims by women in Roscrea that they do not feel safe in their own town.
