Mary Lou McDonald (SF), Dublin Central

That, to me, is an astonishing sum over such a short period of time. Can the Taoiseach please give us some response as to how that represents value for money? That is €500,000 on travel for the Taoiseach on private jets. Even by the standards of Fine Gael, that is certainly extravagant and self-indulgent at a time when students, families and workers are struggling. How does the Taoiseach justify such wastage and extravagance on himself?
