Seán Crowe: Deputy Barrett is doing a great job. Mr. Hynes and Ms Walshe are very welcome. I am sure they will get the sense from members that we want to be supportive of Glencree's work. I wish to record my thanks for the work the centre has done over the past 45 years, it is ground-breaking. Glencree's geographic isolation helps with its work. It is not that easy for people to drift off or go out...

- Pre-European Council Meeting: Statements (11 Dec 2019)
Seán Crowe: I was not sure if Brexit would be formally discussed at the European Council meeting until I heard the Taoiseach's speech. We would all accept that Brexit casts a long shadow. Polls in the Westminster election will close at 10 p.m. tomorrow and we should get the first exit polls shortly after that. This will occur during the European Council meeting. I am sure that the Taoiseach and all...

- Scouting Ireland: Statements: Drugs Dealing (5 Dec 2019)
Seán Crowe: The primary purpose of this Topical Issue matter is to draw attention to the issue and get a more proactive response to it. Every day I see drug-dealing in my community. It is an attack on the community in which it happens, and no one should have to live beside it. That is the other big problem. I asked in my initial contribution what one says to those people living beside this open drug...
- Scouting Ireland: Statements: Drugs Dealing (5 Dec 2019)
Seán Crowe: I want to ask about the Government's approach to open drug dealing in my constituency of Dublin South-West.

In many cases, it is...

- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Dec 2019)
Seán Crowe: I raise an issue of concern under promised legislation. I visited a number of parks last weekend and saw clear evidence of turf having been gouged out by the tyres of scrambler and quad bikes. Will the Taoiseach discourage parents who might be thinking of buying these bikes for their loved ones at Christmas from doing so? These vehicles bring mayhem into communities and are destroying our...
- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (3 Dec 2019)
Seán Crowe: The Taoiseach mentioned the importance of marking the International Day of People with Disabilities. What about people who have a disability and are looking for respite care?

Unfortunately, for many of...
