Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022)

Paul McAuliffe: I will make it a long question then. I want to clarify my contribution earlier. The document that was circulated earlier was presented by the president and prepared by the deputy president. Is that paper available to the committee? If we were to request it, could it be made available to us? It seems to have been heavily relied on by the executive body in making that decision. We have...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development (Street Furniture Fees) Regulations 2022: Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage (12 May 2022)

Paul McAuliffe: I appreciate the differentiation in the local authority's involvement. There is still too much specification about what needs to happen for someone to apply for this. For example, there is a big space in Ballymun with the plaza and the Axis theatre. I have no doubt they could put out tables and chairs on the plaza and it would make things safer and there would be passive policing. These...

Europe Day: Statements (10 May 2022)

Paul McAuliffe: I am sharing time with Deputy Alan Farrell. I am very pleased to be here to mark 50 years of Ireland's membership of the European Union.

It unlocked the potential of a State that was emerging from oppression under an empire and happened...
