QuestionView source ↗

My supplementary question to the very dishonest minister is: when did he get the invitation to attend the conference? Mr J.A. McGINTY

AnswerView source ↗

The question, as best I understood it, from the Deputy Leader of the Opposition was: when did I receive the invitation? If he wants to put that question on notice, I will go and look up the date on the letter. What a stupid question! How pathetic is it that he wants to know on what date I received particular correspondence; how pathetic is that! He should go out there and spread a little more disinformation about the referendum that he is so desperately trying to scuttle. I know that the Deputy Leader of the Opposition will stop at nothing in trying to make sure that he scuttles the ability to give the people of this State a choice.
