- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (9 Mar 2022)
Mattie McGrath: What is it going to take to get the Taoiseach and his Government to act to help our people, from our elderly to our children? The paltry efforts being talked about now include the reduction of 20 cent a litre in the price of petrol, 15 cent a litre for road diesel, 2 cent a litre, which is an insult, for green diesel, the price of which has more than doubled in the past year, and nothing...

- Flexible and Remote Work: Motion [Private Members] (9 Mar 2022)
Mattie McGrath: I compliment the proposals in this motion, but we have to be sensible and sensitive in how we deal with this area. The opportunity to highlight the positives of working from home is really presented here. Remote and flexible working can offer a renewed vigour to the Government plans, if the Government has the plans. The post offices have been floundering for decades and the Government has...

- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (8 Mar 2022)
Mattie McGrath: When is the Taoiseach going to support the men and women, the postmasters of Ireland, who did sterling work during the Covid period? Post offices were some of the only places that stayed open and looked after people. The postmasters are on their knees, and if they do not get some package by this summer, they will be gone. Beidh siad imithe. The Taoiseach knows this better than I do. They...

- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (8 Mar 2022)

- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (8 Mar 2022)
Mattie McGrath: I was very disappointed with the Taoiseach's response to Deputy McDonald earlier. We need action now. We sleepwalked into this crisis. Blaming Ukraine and what goes on there is horrific. There is no excuse and the public know it. There is a 64 cent in excise and carbon tax on every litre of petrol and 54 cent on every litre of diesel. This can be wiped away with the stroke of a pen. I...
