Bríd Smith (PBP), Dublin South-Central

We are all aware of the controversy surrounding the decision of the National Women's Council of Ireland, NWCI, regarding its platform for the International Women's Day protest on 5 March. We have differing views on it and I do not do not want to go into those views here. However, I seek from the Minister and Government reassurance that the NWCI, or any other NGO which takes a view that is different to that of the Government or takes a decision that the Government does not like, will not have their funding cut or threatened and will instead be protected.
