Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I did not interrupt. I am entitled, through the Chair, to argue and make points to the House and to answer the questions the Deputy has raised. My point is a valid point and I will not be browbeaten by the Deputy just as she tried to browbeat me last year when I had a consultative forum, which is a basic act of participative democracy. She tried everything to denigrate the chair and tried everything to stop debate because she do not even think we have the right to discuss these issues-----
