International Protection Bill 2026: Second Stage
Dail Éireann — 2026-01-28
============================================================

Alan Kelly (LAB), Tipperary North

We will get through the meat of the Bill on Committee Stage because so much is missing. The facts are that the Government is deliberately putting out spurious messages on migration and what is going on here is a bloody disgrace. The people who have come into this country from other countries and who work here are welcome.
That is the message the Government should be sending out, rather than leaving us to do it.
