Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: An Garda Síochána (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: Absolutely. We all want that, but to have a world-class policing service we must have the confidence of An Garda, which, at all levels, is losing confidence in this Bill. The Minister has had interaction with the Commissioner but he appeared before the justice committee this week and used the phrases to which I referred so, obviously, he is not too convinced that there will be too many...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: An Garda Síochána (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: 81. To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality her views on and response to criticism by Garda superintendents of the proposed policing Bill; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [51417/21]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: An Garda Síochána (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: I am concerned that the proposed policing Bill will walk us into a crisis. I have observed the various commentary on it. There were pre-legislative scrutiny hearings. What work has been done in the Department to address the very serious concerns that were expressed, even outside of the pre-legislative scrutiny process? A far greater response is required.

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: An Garda Síochána (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: I thank the Minister. Garda superintendents say the Bill will give more power to oversight bodies to deal with gardaí than An Garda Síochána has to deal with criminals. That is the kind of thing that is said for attention at annual conferences, but it is a very serious charge from a group of people who, as the Minister said, have co-operated with reform and are leaders in...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Common Agricultural Policy (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: I think the target participation rate for the new agri-environmental scheme is 50,000, which equates to the current participation level in the green low-carbon agri-environment scheme, GLAS. How will we ensure that those who are excluded from GLAS will not be excluded from the new agri-environmental scheme, whatever it will be called? How will we further ensure that the restrictions in the...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Common Agricultural Policy (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: 8. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine his plans to support hill farmers in the next CAP; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [51715/21]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Common Agricultural Policy (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: Farmers and sheep farmers have been left aside in previous Common Agricultural Policy plans. Given his experience of the sector, what are the Minister's proposals within the new CAP strategic plan to support and sustain this sector and to guarantee and encourage people to go into it?

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Common Agricultural Policy (21 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: I thank the Minister and commend him and his team, including the Ministers of State, Senator Hackett and Deputy Heydon, the Taoiseach and the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Michael McGrath, on the new CAP programme. It appears from the early signs that it is very positive and will support farming in our region in particular. On the extra €2.9 billion, how will...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Covid-19 Pandemic (20 Oct 2021)

Dara Calleary: I am surprised the committee has not been meeting more often considering where we are at. That said, is it working with the Cabinet health committee in relation to the issues with Covid-19 care and their impact on non-Covid-19 care, particularly in the days and weeks ahead? Second, has any decision been taken on the recognition for front-line workers and healthcare workers, in terms of a...
