Prayer. 17/11/2020A00100Statement by An Taoiseach 17/11/2020A00200An Ceann Comhairle: Before Leaders’ Questions, I understand the Taoiseach has a brief announcement for the information of the House 17/11/2020A00300The Taoiseach: On behalf of the Government, I want to issue the following statement The independence and the integrity of the Judiciary is of paramount importance The Judiciary has played a vital role in supporting the democratic and constitutional traditions of the State since its foundation and has ensured respect for the rule of law which underpins those traditions The Government notes the informal process, which was both transparent and comprehensive, conducted by the Judiciary to address the legitimate concerns arising from Mr Justice Woulfe’s attendance at the Oireachtas golf dinner in Clifden The Government fully supports the Su- preme Court and recognises the importance of protecting its collegiate nature and its concern to maintain the highest standards The Government notes the important distinction between a res- ignation and the deliberately high constitutional standard of removal for stated misbehaviour After very careful consideration, and having listened to the Opposition leaders on this matter, the Government believes the constitutional protection of the Judiciary is best achieved in this particular case by taking no further steps in this matter 17/11/2020A00400Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders’ Questions 17/11/2020A00450An Ceann Comhairle: Leaders’ Questions will now be taken Deputy Mary Lou McDon- ald, please 17/11/2020A00500Deputy Mary Lou McDonald: Can I respond to the statement? 17/11/2020A00600An Ceann Comhairle: You can, of course 17/11/2020A00700Deputy Mary Lou McDonald: Thank you, a Cheann Comhairle All of us value the in- dependence of the Judiciary and every measure must be taken to protect that I appreciate the 849 Dáil Éireann events as set out by the Taoiseach The Judiciary chose an informal process of its own and it reported on the matter of Mr. Justice Woulfe’s attendance at a golfing event in Clifden. I hear also the Taoiseach’s determination that the Oireachtas would take no further steps However, the Chief Justice expressing no confidence in a member of the Bench remains problematic. I believe there ought to be some mediated solution to this particular issue On a wider matter, it is essential for the Oireachtas that the Government is fully accountable and that the Minister for Justice, Deputy McEntee, would attend and answer all of the relevant and pertinent questions around the appointment process of Mr Justice Woulfe to the Bench 17/11/2020A00800An Ceann Comhairle: I do not want to stop the Deputy in her flow but----- 17/11/2020A00900Deputy Mary Lou McDonald: This is not my Leaders’ question, by the way I am re- sponding to the Taoiseach’s statement 17/11/2020A01000An Ceann Comhairle: This is not the Deputy’s Leaders’ question 17/11/2020A01100Deputy Mary Lou McDonald: No The Taoiseach has made a statement I asked to re- spond to the statement and I thought that was clear 17/11/2020A01200An Ceann Comhairle: It is in order as far as I am concerned to discuss here the process of selection within the House provided we do not stray into the area of personal suitability that would reflect on any individual
