Refactored

I've refactored this from List of addresses to the Oireachtas. The Seanad invites people much more often than the Dáil, and as part of its regular business rather than as a ceremonial honour, so the two lists are better kept separate. jnestorius(talk) 12:41, 4 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Paul Murphy no-show

edit

I note that Paul Murphy was invited on 28 May 2013 to address the Seanad on 30 May 2013, but did not do so. He did speak on 7 March 2013 at the joint committee on EU affairs, which also met on 30 May 2013, though without any MEPs present on the latter date. I wonder whether Murphy's absence from the Seanad was a snub; that would be consistent with the Socialist Party's support for the Abolition of the Seanad. jnestorius(talk) 10:44, 27 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
