1229
[1229] An Ceann Comhairle: Deputy Finucane will now withdraw from the House.
Mr. Finucane Mr. Finucane
Mr. Finucane: There will be another day. I challenge any of the Fianna Fáil Deputies to stand on the Kerins case in Kerry. Deputy Finucane withdrew.
Mr. Spring Mr. Spring

[1230] An Ceann Comhairle: That is quite disorderly.
Mr. Spring Mr. Spring
Mr. Spring: This man is lying in Mountjoy awaiting execution in the morning. We have no one to blame only the Taoiseach. I can certainly say the Taoiseach or any of his Ministers will not be too willing to address a meeting in Kerry in the near future.

Minister for Education (Mr. Derrig): Is that a threat?
Mr. Spring Mr. Spring
