When I was a wee fellow and I had a sick stomach, my mother used to give me milk of magnesia. I believe Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill has milk of amnesia in his system. We know it was the then Minister, Ray Burke, who dealt with many of the mining licences that are in place at present.

We are talking about the report where he is praising what happened to the Louth hospital. He has campaigned against it for years and years, and, now, it is the greatest thing that ever happened.

If Senator D'Arcy looked at the pre-election promises of the Fine Gael Party, that is where the amnesia comes in.

Senator D'Arcy, without interruption. I ask the Senator not to draw fire on himself.
