Seanad Éireann · 2025-05-13
Party shown is the one held on 2025-05-13, frozen at parse time — not the speaker's party today.
I move: That Seanad Éireann, in accordance with section 8(3)(b) of the Houses of the Oireachtas Commission Acts 2003 to 2024, appoints the ordinary members of the Commission as follows: Senators Robbie Gallagher, Joe O’Reilly. I move amendment No. 1: To insert the following after “Joe O’Reilly”: “and Michael McDowell”. I move amendment No. 1 to amendment No. 1: To delete “Michael McDowell” and substitute the following: “Nessa Cosgrove”.
I welcome the guests of Senator Costello from Tallaght and the various residents associations. Will the Senators who are claiming a division please rise? In accordance with Standing Order 61 the names of the Senators dissenting will be recorded in the Journal of the Proceedings of the Seanad.
Built by scoring every sentence in the debate on how distinctive its language is, then quoting the highest-scoring ones back word for word and in the order spoken. Nothing is paraphrased or invented — if a sentence appears here, it was said in the chamber. Drawn from 76 words across 9 contributions by 6 speakers.
How often each word appears across the whole debate, ranked by how distinctive it is to this debate rather than common to all parliamentary language.
All 9 contributions, start to finish, in the order they were made. The one you came here for is highlighted.
