Employment Support Services: Motion [Private Members] (30 Nov 2021)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank Sinn Féin and Deputy Kerrane for bringing this very timely motion and allowing us to speak on it tonight. I will be supporting this motion. I honestly feel the services we have are good enough. While perhaps at times they could have been better, I am very worried that what we will get will be worse. When something is for profit, I am afraid the people who will suffer are...

Horse and Greyhound Racing Fund Regulations 2021: Motion (30 Nov 2021)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Ceann Comhairle, and it is good to see him back in action again. I thank the Minister for giving this €88 million. The only regret I have is it is a reduction of €8 million from last year. We all know the cost of everything is going up. Why do we have to come in here every year to approve this spending? Should there not instead be a standing order that the horse...

Education (Health, Relationships and Sex Education) Bill 2021: Second Stage [Private Members] (24 Nov 2021)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am grateful to Deputy Gannon and the Social Democrats for giving us the opportunity to discuss this. Obviously, I do not agree with many parts of what the Deputy has said.

Danny Healy-Rae: What the Minister is doing in Ireland will not even move the global greenhouse gas scale, yet our people are being taxed out of existence and targeted financially because of a Green nirvana agenda that is more fanatical than realistic. Our small island country produces just 0.13% of all the worldwide emissions. That is all. Yet our farmers, who produce the highest quality food from fresh...
