Is there a record of how many days he attended the Dail, because his record is fairly miserable I would imagine? In addition to this, as a 70-something year old, he is entitled to free train travel (his mode of transport to Dublin) but has not applied for a free travel pass, saying he will do so 'in due time', whenever that may be! John O'Donoghue was correctly villified for his extravagance, but for Healy Rae to be one of his chief accusers was the blackest of pots calling the kettle black.
