The special classrooms have their place and are extremely...

- Planning and Development (An Taisce) Bill 2024: Second Stage [Private Members] (9 Oct 2024)
Mattie McGrath: It is a sacred cow. All we ever strive to do – it is in the Bible and the gospel – is do good. If you cannot do good, do not do anything bad.
