Kenny and Adams clash again over abuse claimsFriday 13 March 2015 19.07 Taoiseach Enda Kenny and Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams have clashed again over sex abuse claims. Speaking in the US, Mr Kenny said that he did not believe Mr Adams when he said that he did not know about Sinn Féin involvement in sexual abuse cases. During a St Patrick's Day trip to Atlanta, Georgia, Mr Kenny said that he was "quite sure" that Mr Adams was "well aware of what's happened". The Taoiseach said Mr Adams had "a duty" to live up to his own words and to go to gardaí about what he knew. But Mr Adams dismissed the remarks by Mr Kenny as "opportunistic and demeaning to his office". He added: "Mr Kenny says that I should go to the gardaí about anything that I know regarding issues of sexual abuse. He says this in the full knowledge that I have already done this. "The Taoiseach's refusal to act on Martin McGuinness's proposal for an all-Ireland mechanism to assist survivors and victims of abuse, and his failure even to write to the Deputy First Minister for over four months, speaks loudly of his attitude to this serious and sensitive issue. "Mr Kenny is more interested in exploiting it to attack me and Sinn Féin." Mr Kenny called on Mr Adams to bring the information he had to gardaí immediately, not just in the case of Paudie McGahon but in all the other cases that were known. Co Louth man Mr McGahon says he was raped by an IRA member when he was 17. He said that that both the IRA and Sinn Féin knew that the individual who abused him also assaulted another boy who was several years younger. Mr McGahon said that although Sinn Féin representatives told him he could go to gardaí in 2009 they also said that this could set back the recovery of the younger victim.

Taoiseach ag rá nach gcreideann sé ceannaire Shinn Féin Gerry AdamsDé hAoine 13 Márta 2015 18.49 Dúirt an Taoiseach in athuair inniu nach gcreideann sé ceannaire Shinn Féin Gerry Adams nuair a deir sé nach raibh a fhios aige faoi bhaint a bheith ag Sinn Féin le cásanna mí-úsáidte gnéis. Ag labhairt dhó in Atlanta Georgia sna Stáit Aontaithe agus é ar thuras do Lá Fhéile Pádraig dúirt Enda Kenny gur chreid sé go bhfuil a fhios ag an Teachta Adams go maith faoi thithe sábháilte agus faoi chúirteanna bradacha. Tá sé de dhualgas ar Gerry Adams a deir sé dul chuig na Gardaí. Ag tagairt d'eacnamaíocht na tíre seo dúirt an Taoiseach gurb í an tsaint a thiomáin cultúr an Tíogair Cheiltigh sa tír seo. Sé lá a chaithfidh an Taoiseach i Meiriceá do cheiliúradh na Féile Pádraig. Beidh sé in Austin Texas agus i Washington DC freisin.
