Houses of the Oireachtas Commission (Amendment) Bill 2021: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2021-12-08
============================================================

Jerry Buttimer (FG), Labour Panel

There are not too many who are trying to ride both horses in being a Deputy and a Seanadóir. As Members of the Upper House, the research we have to do in the scrutiny of legislation means that we deserve to have parliamentary assistants and not just one member of staff. I thank the Acting Chairperson for his indulgence.
