Finance Bill 2020: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2020-12-11
============================================================

Rónán Mullen (IND), National University of Ireland

If the Minister of State came close to accusing me of something bad, it was of being somewhat irresponsible in referring to an incident which, were it to be delved into, might disclose the identity of a particular person. My response to that is important, a Leas-Chathaoirligh, and I ask you to let me make it. I will make it very clearly. If you were to ask me off the top of my head who that person is, I am not sure I could say with clarity who it is. The name of any such person simply did not enter my head in preparing the recommendation, other than the factuality of it.
