Paschal cannot tell between day and night.

I thought the Minister sold them.

How does the Minister know if he does not know how they were paid for?

The Minister said on radio and in the House that he had sold the tickets to Mr. Stone. Now, he cannot tell us whether that involved cash, cheque, bank card, credit card or a new currency like crypto. Surely the Minister can remember. Did he sell so many that he does not know?

It is a simple question. This matter should be clarified.

No one said anything about that.

I too am glad to have the opportunity to speak on the Bill. All present recognise that organ and tissue donation is a service that saves lives, improves the quality of life and has cost benefits for the health service. All Members know people who have had the benefit of organ donations. Indeed, my late uncle donated his body to medical science. There are many people who are affected in that way. Bills like this one have a long gestation but they have to be tightly couched because there can be room for ambiguity. Th…

Farcical.

I stood in Soloheadbeg last Sunday, the place where Tadhg Crowe and Seán Treacy, among others, fired the first shots in the War of Independence. The Government is going around the country commemorating our independence, as is the Sinn Féin Party, and reading the Proclamation. What a neck to come in here then and bring this forward. The Minister of State, Senator Hackett, is not even elected to this House. She has the privilege of sitting at Cabinet but she has been an utter disgrace in relation to afforestation. Th…

The Government is blackguarding every individual farmer with regard to licences. Sin scéal eile. Sugar beet was mentioned previously. What about our fishing industry? Are we going to sell out everything that we have? It is nothing short of a sell-out. It is a scandal and it cannot be accepted. The Irish people are growing sick and tired of this, particularly when they see our Taoiseach and former Taoiseach heading out to the World Economic Forum, WEF, a secret body that is dictating policy here. The Minister for Pu…

Yes, we can see all the Minister's backbenchers there behind him.

It is not a history lesson either.

It is for broadleaf.

The Government is like Seán Treacy and Dan Breen and the rest of them.

The Government is voting against it.

Vótáil.

It is hypocrisy of the highest order.

I too am not satisfied with not having questions and answers regarding the Minister, Deputy Donohoe. We have statements before European Council meetings and post European Council meetings. When will we have pre-visit to Davos statements? The Taoiseach said he will only be there for a day and a half and that he would like to be there for a week. Frankly, I do not care how long he stays there. Professor Schwab said that it has penetrated many cabinets around the world. I know the Minister for Finance, Deputy Michael …

I have no interest in going.

Very funny. It is a great laugh.
