Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Deputy's Visit to Glasgow.
Arising out of the President's reply, I want to ask if he would have any objection to stating whether the individual in question has been or is in Government employment?
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Personation Offences.
Apart from the question of penalties, is it within the Minister's recollection that the Government was appealed to not very long ago to consider certain proposals other than penalties for the prevent...
I hope the Minister for Local Government has managed to overhear the question.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Tralee Disturbances.
asked the Minister for Justice whether it is the intention of the Government to bring any charges of assault, wounding, possession of arms, intimidation, unlawful assembly, conspiracy or riot in conne...
Not being satisfied with that answer, I desire to give notice that I will raise this matter to-night on the motion for the adjournment.
Question on Adjournment.
I, therefore, shall raise on the adjournment this evening the subject-matter of Question No. 7, dealing with scenes at Tralee on October 6th.
Unemployment Assistance Bill, 1933—Final Stages.
I must protest against the continual disorderly interruptions of the Minister for Industry and Commerce. He does not even trouble to rise from his seat to make his observations.
Order.
Might I ask the Minister a question? I only want to ask whether he is serious in the suggestion which he has just thrown out that there should be an alliance between the Government and the Opposition...
Unemployment Insurance Bill, 1933—Final Stages.
Before the Minister concludes I should like to ask him a further question on the same lines as Deputy Dillon's, that is, whether he is able to give us figures with regard to unemployment insurance, an...
The figures the Minister gave us with regard to insurance stamps and insurance books when they come to him do not differentiate between private and public employers?
Is the Minister in a position to say that there has been any substantial increase in the number of unemployment insurance books issued to private employees?
Rates on Agricultural Land (Relief) Bill, 1933—Second Stage.
I would like the Minister to be good enough to say exactly what he was referring to when he said that there was to be subsequent legislation to deal with the general question. What exactly did he mea...
Does “the near future” mean before Christmas?
Private Deputies' Business. - Adjournment Debate—Tralee Disturbances.
I asked the Minister for Justice to-day whether any prosecutions were pending in connection with the disturbances which took place at Tralee on October 6th, and if so whether such prosecutions would b...
Well, whatever they were, they were able to run up——
——and kick Deputy Lynch and deliver a number of blows on the person of General O'Duffy. Finally, one of them hit him on the head with some sort of instrument—I understand a hammer. Subsequent to tha...
What they actually did, again at the behest of the attackers, was to search one of the attacked young men to see if he had any arms, and he had no arms. And so it goes on. An Phoblacht is allowed to...
I submit, with great respect, that I am not going in any detail into what occurred in Limerick, and I was not going to mention any other places. I submit with great respect that the object of putting...
I put it to the Government that intimidation is going to be absolutely rampant throughout the whole country if that sort of thing goes on, that the Civic Guards cannot be expected to perform their dut...
Does anyone seriously suggest that as an analogy? The President was shouted down in this House one evening.
Partly by members of my Party, and no one in the House regretted that, I venture to say, as deeply as I did. After all, one swallow does not make a summer, and it is not often the President is shout...
Who said “rubbish”?
Whoever said “rubbish” is either extremely ignorant or extremely dishonest.
It takes very little investigation to find out the truth. I charge that people are being intimidated and kept away from the meetings of our Party. I charge that definitely, and I charge that the Civ...
