Local Government (Support for Elected Members) Bill 2024: Second Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2025-12-10
============================================================

Chris Andrews (SF), Labour Panel

I am sorry, but I did not interrupt Senator Ahearn, so he should give me the same respect, if he does not mind. A long list was read out of what still needs to be done. Fine Gael has had 14 years to do it and the party has been sitting on its hands and letting councillors in local authorities down.
