Shannon Group: Motion
Seanad Éireann — 2020-10-14
============================================================

Róisín Garvey (GP), Nominated by the Taoiseach

I do not support the motion but I support the amendment to the motion. In some ways I find it somewhat ridiculous and I wonder if we are wasting our time on this motion. I am sure Senator Gavan, like everyone else, knows that Shannon Group is not just an airport, it is a large entity that has assets, so this motion is almost a waste of time. If he had said "Shannon Airport" rather than "Shannon Group" it might have made more sense. I would really appreciate it if he put down his phone and listened to me because I listened to him when he was speaking.
