Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) (Amendment) Bill 2023: Second Stage [Private Members] (25 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: The number of abortions has jumped a devastating 25% just in the last year. Some 8,500 unborn children were aborted last year and this figure is nearly triple the rate it was in 2017. That proves the predictions made by human rights campaigners in 2018, that the legislation, if implemented, would see a massive increase in lost lives. In the four years since the law was put in place, 31,000...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: Authorising is not recruiting. Last year, the Government authorised that recruitment of 1,000 gardaí and 116 were recruited. That is the difference between a press statement and the reality of the experience in society. The Government's policy is backfiring on people because crime and antisocial behaviour are going through the roof. Ireland has become a more violent place in recent...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: Under Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and the Green Party, Ireland is becoming a more violent and dangerous place. The Government is soft on crime and soft on the causes of crime. The Taoiseach just needs to look at the facts in that regard. Over the last number of years, the Government has hung the Garda out to dry in terms of underresourcing and understaffing. According to EUROSTAT figures...

Hospital Waiting Lists: Motion [Private Members] (23 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: I will try to encapsulate the state of the health service in a number of figures. Last year, 115,000 patients left emergency departments before they were seen. That is an incredible figure. Some 115,000 people were sick enough to warrant going to the emergency department but were forced to wait so long that after a while they felt they were safer and better off at home. The emergency...

Accommodation Needs for New Arrivals: Statements (23 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: Sometimes I think we are having two debates about asylum seekers. There seems to be a debate in the political and media bubble and one happening outside in the real world. There is a disconnect between the two debates and what is happening around the issue of asylum seekers. Most Irish people want to help those who are fleeing violence, famine and war. Most want to be Good Samaritans and...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committees (23 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: The filmed attack on the child in Navan more than a week ago has shocked so many people throughout the country. The sustained nature of it, as the child lay on the ground, was brutal.

Peer violence outside schools is growing in this country and child-on-child violence is also growing in...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (23 May 2023)

Peadar Tóibín: Yesterday the Tánaiste said he was open to EU treaty change to delete vetoes held by the Dáil and other national parliaments on EU foreign policy and security issues. In other words, he is open to reducing the democratic say of the Irish people on incredibly important issues. This comes in the same week the three Government parties have decided to dump the triple lock mechanism,...
