Rent Freeze (Fair Rent) Bill 2019: Second Stage [Private Members] (10 Dec 2019)

Maurice Quinlivan: It is crystal clear that Rebuilding Ireland has failed. Regardless of how many times the statistics are recycled or quoted by the Minister of State or the Minister, the evidence is overwhelming. The record number of people in homelessness is proof of this failure. The record, all-time high rents are more evidence. The squalid conditions that many renters are forced to live in shows this....

OECD Report on SME and Entrepreneurship Policy in Ireland: Statements (10 Dec 2019)

Maurice Quinlivan: The OECD report highlights how vital SMEs are to our economy, outlining the fact that 92% of enterprises operating here had fewer than ten employees, which shows that microbusinesses are the engine of our economy. However, one would not know this from the approach of Ministers, who focuses all their attention on cutting big ribbons at multinational headquarters. Multinational investment...

Maurice Quinlivan: I welcome the opportunity to make a contribution on Fifth Stage. Sinn Féin will support this legislation.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)

Maurice Quinlivan: I would like to focus my contribution on Lyric FM, as I am Deputy representing Limerick city and this is a huge concern in the area. It has been a good project in the city. When RTÉ brought Lyric FM to Limerick, it was seen as the national broadcaster reaching out to the regions. Now that RTÉ is retreating from that, the opposite is going to be perceived. It has not, as one can...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)

Maurice Quinlivan: Ms Forbes has not answered the question I asked. There is concern about why RTÉ thinks it is going to save money by moving to Dublin or Cork. RTÉ is reducing what Lyric FM will be, otherwise there will be no savings there. Limerick is probably the cheapest place to run it. Ms Forbes, if she has ever been to the Cornmarket, will know how big it is and how cheap it is compared to...

Environmental Impact of Quarries and Incinerators: Motion [Private Members] (4 Dec 2019)

Maurice Quinlivan: I wanted to speak on this motion as it is directly relevant to a very important issue in my constituency of Limerick city.

This area is surrounded by homes, sports fields and other community facilities. It is a rapidly growing area in...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Social Inclusion and Community Activation Programme (4 Dec 2019)

Maurice Quinlivan: I will be brief. Deputy O'Dea made a comment about Sinn Féin MPs taking their salaries. As the Deputy would know, if he knew anything about the North, that is simply not the case. Maybe if his party had not abstained from the North for 100 years, he would be well aware of that.
