	Garret FitzGerald - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		FitzGerald's mother, the former Mabel McConville, who, although an ardent nationalist and republican herself, came of Ulster unionist Protestant stock and left a lasting affect on her son's political philosophy.
		FitzGerald declined, choosing instead to follow in his father's footsteps by joining the rival Fine Gael party where he was hugely influenced by the ideas of the TD, Declan Costello.
		FitzGerald was elected to Dáil Éireann in 1969, the same year he obtained his PhD for a thesis later published under the title "Planning in Ireland." He became an important figure almost immediately in the parliamentary party and his liberal ideas were seen as a counterweight to the conservative leader, Liam Cosgrave.

		Garret FitzGerald: I should like to protest that we were not notified of this when we were discussing taking motions because had the House known that we would be sitting here with nothing to do we would have taken a very different view on the question of the motions.
		Garret FitzGerald: I may have misled the Senator, perhaps, by taking a particular example, using the flourmilling industry as an illustration of the way in which responsibilities are divided between two Departments, as a historical example of the division of responsibilities.
		Garret FitzGerald: I see it may be wiser to do so though it is not often that here it makes that much difference because the Commission under the terms of the amendment would not take this action unless they were of opinion there was a risk.

	Seanad Éireann - Volume 63 - 01 August, 1967 - Livestock Marts Bill, 1967: Committee Stage.
		Garret FitzGerald: First of all, it would appear to me that the Minister holds that the Cork Co-operative Mart is not carrying on its business, which is the business of selling livestock by auction, at the place where they hold their board meetings.
		Garret FitzGerald: If the business of Cork Co-operative Mart is the business of selling livestock by auction and if they are carrying on their business vis-á-vis the business of selling livestock by auction where the board meets, then the place where the board meets must be licensed.
		Garret FitzGerald: I understood the Minister to say that my amendments as drafted would mean that people could sell livestock at some place other than a mart by putting up a stall or some such structure and that it would not be a licensed mart.

		Garret FitzGerald: I am a little puzzled by what the Minister says as [109] to section 49 which I do not very much like in its present form but is designed to give him the power to exclude people in pensionable employment from the operation of the scheme.
		Garret FitzGerald: What I shall propose when we come to it is that we should do some such thing as they have in the British Act where the Minister has power to exclude people in other schemes from this scheme or to modify other schemes so that people are included under this Bill.
		Garret FitzGerald: Of course, there would be a dispute, but at least under my amendment it is clear that the criterion for settlement of a dispute would be the interest of the employee.

		Garret FitzGerald, a highly regarded medical doctor at the University of Pennsylvania, told a conference in Edinburgh, Scotland that the problems surrounding the Vioxx recall in the U.S. could happen, again, with a different unsafe drug unless the FDA makes some fundamental changes.

	Penn Researchers Add More Evidence to Demonstrate Role of COX Inhibitors in Heart-Disease Risk (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Six years ago Garret FitzGerald, MD, Director of the Institute for Translational Medicine and Therapeutics at Penn, raised the possibility that selective COX-2 inhibitors might predispose patients otherwise at risk for an increased incidence of heart attack and stroke.
		In this first study, the researchers used a conventional statistical approach called meta-analysis to combine the findings of two trials to obtain a stronger estimate of the risk of heart attack plus stroke than is possible from looking at either trial alone.
		FitzGerald adds: “The clear emergence of a cardiovascular hazard from COX-2 inhibitors in patients, the weak rationale for a study of their protective properties in the first instance, and now this evidence from mice would indicate to me that a trial in high-risk patients, such as that proposed for Celebrex is, at best, ill advised.”
