Michael McDowell (IND), National University of Ireland

I am not accusing anybody, if we are not being lied to about the intention not to have a general election before next year. If, on the other hand, this is yet another instance of the Government saying one thing and deceiving the Irish people about its intentions, and ramming through this and the Planning and Development Bill in order to renege on its commitment, made publicly by the Taoiseach, not to have a general election until early 2025, so be it, but there will be retribution.
