Is the Order of Business agreed?
Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein)

It is not agreed. I asked the Taoiseach about the response of the Minister for Transport, Deputy Ryan, to the chaotic scenes we saw again at Dublin Airport. In his response the Taoiseach set out some of the work done by Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Deputy O'Brien. I am not satisfied with that answer. I am very concerned as we now come very close to Christmas, with huge numbers of passengers passing through Dublin Airport, that we cannot see the type of chaos, delay and distress that we witnessed during the summer. I ask that the Minister, Deputy Ryan, presents himself to the Dáil, makes a statement on the planning for Dublin Airport, and takes questions from Members.
Ivana Bacik (Dublin Bay South, Labour)

I already raised on Leaders' Questions our concerns about the rushing through of the Planning and Development and Foreshore (Amendment) Bill. These concerns were set out in our letter, sent by my colleague Senator Rebecca Moynihan, to the Minister, Deputy O'Brien, on 1 December. I want to raise it again and our representative on the Business Committee also raised the concerns about the tabling of business in this House. We are absolutely in support of measures to speed up the delivery of housing but we have very serious concerns about the extent to which the measures in this Bill will not have the proper scrutiny they deserve.
Mick Barry (Cork North Central, Solidarity)

We need a Dáil debate on the issue of this cold snap. We need a debate on how we will help people to keep their homes warm despite the massive increases in gas and electricity prices. The Government will say there is the €200 credit, but there are households who are burning through that €200 energy credit in the seven to ten days of this cold snap alone. Some of these households are on pay-as-you-go and could face the threat of disconnection this Christmas. There have been a lot of Elvis Presley references here in the past hour but it is now or never on this issue. We need a Dáil session to be organised on this, and if necessary the Dáil needs to meet on Friday to discuss it. We cannot have people being disconnected over Christmas.
Cian O'Callaghan (Dublin Bay North, Social Democrats)
Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source
I object in the strongest possible terms that here we are yet again at the end of a Dáil term seeing important planning legislation being rushed through without sufficient time for scrutiny. The current Bill allows for the concentration of power into the hands of the Minister when it comes to the appointment of members of An Bord Pleanála. It brings us back to the situation we got rid of in 1983 for very good reasons. It is highly regressive. This is not the way we should be doing Dáil business. Is the Taoiseach aware that with Water Environment (Abstractions and Associated Impoundments) Bill we have 45 minutes to discuss 41 amendments? How is that meant to work?
Mattie McGrath (Tipperary, Independent)
Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source
On behalf of the Rural Independent Group and in support of Deputy Carol Nolan, I ask for a reasonable, balanced, understanding and civil debate. The Taoiseach has said debate is not being stopped or suppressed in the House, but it is. Why can we not have a debate on the situation of migration? I am not talking about the war in Ukraine, which the Taoiseach has an obsession with, as I said previously. I am talking about migration from countries that have safe places and where there is no war. I have quoted figures previously to the Taoiseach. Some 3,100 people have come from Albania in the first ten months of this year with no documentation. Níl píosa amháin acu - nothing - and others have come from many other countries. The Taoiseach said our immigration and border controls are working but they are not working. How are they getting in here? We cannot afford to have them here.

Just one step at a time now. Deputy McDonald asked if the Minister, Deputy Ryan, could issue a statement or could come before the House.
We are meeting until beyond midnight tonight. I would hesitate to ask the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, in at 12.30 a.m. or towards 1 a.m. because he should be asleep at that stage.

I appreciate that the Taoiseach is being humorous and no doubt the Minister would be conked out by then, but it is a serious issue and I would like the Minister to come before the House.

We have Topical Issue matters so that might be an opportunity to raise issues. Deputy Bacik raised the planning issue again, as did Deputy O'Callaghan. Two weeks ago there was a lot of pressure on Government to declare a housing emergency, to accept that there is a housing emergency and to accept that it is urgent. This is a minor amendment which enables us to get houses built more rapidly on public land that is already zoned for housing. Local authorities are getting help as well because the Minister has allocated substantial funding to them to take away historic debt and to enable them to get on with building rapid-build houses.

We are discussing a range of issues with regard to the cold snap. Deputy Barry has proven himself to be individually robust in the context of that cold snap because, on Saturday afternoon I was walking up Oliver Plunkett Street and a rough cacophony of sound emerged from the sidelines and who was it but his good self, lambasting the Government out on the public streets. When he saw me his voice went up in intensity, blaming the Government for all our ills.
