Septic tank registration

Summary

Senators exchange partisan remarks about septic-tank registration and Senator Rónán Mullen’s support for protecting financially disadvantaged households.

Fianna Fáil Party Senators are feeling wry amusement at the new-found enthusiasm of the Senator for septic tanks.

The Senator should not pooh-pooh my contribution. I am a country dweller.

All that walking has gone to the Senator's head.

Comment on this

The Senator is correct. Fianna Fáil Senators are smiling wryly because our party has been fighting this issue for several years. The latter day conversion of Senator Rónán Mullen to the issue may have something to do with his tramping through the highways and byways of 15 rural counties. I am sure that has been a new experience for the Senator, coming as he does from the leafy suburbs of Dublin 4.

The Senator should check my voting record. He is not sufficiently in touch with his constituency.
