Louise O'Reilly: We are having this discussion in the context of a broader discussion on fuel poverty. I heard one of the Minister's colleagues, a junior Minister, last night, on a show I do not often watch, advise people who cannot afford to heat or light their homes that they can access an exceptional needs payment. Heating your house is not an exceptional need. It should be a basic right. If that is...

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the Chairman and our witnesses for coming in and for the comprehensive presentation. This is very technical, so I have written my questions down to ensure that I can keep some order to them. My first question relates to the ten categories that are listed, which Dr. Cahill has informed us are in the region of 1,850 and there are 50 types of dual-use items. Can Dr. Cahill give our...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Control of Exports Bill 2021: Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment (29 Sep 2021)
Louise O'Reilly: Am I correct in saying that the guidance, in the first instance, comes principally from the Department of Foreign Affairs?

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Control of Exports Bill 2021: Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment (29 Sep 2021)
Louise O'Reilly: In appendix 2, on assessing licensing applications, the Department states that 22 export licences were denied in 2020 and 38 were denied in 2019.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Control of Exports Bill 2021: Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment (29 Sep 2021)
Louise O'Reilly: In head 5, under the section Offences and Penalties, subhead 14, it states that "authorised officers will have discretionary powers to impose administrative penalties in lieu of criminal prosecutions for violations of control of export laws".

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Control of Exports Bill 2021: Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment (29 Sep 2021)
Louise O'Reilly: These powers are quite substantial. I would not like to think - and I am pretty sure it was not Dr. Cahill's intention to give this impression - that somehow this authorised officer might look at a situation and think that because criminal prosecution is very expensive and heavily resource-dependent, he or she will go for something else. The resources need to be made available if a criminal...
- Housing for All: Statements (28 Sep 2021)
Louise O'Reilly: I am sharing time with an Teachta Mac Lochlainn. I thank the Leas-Cheann Comhairle for the opportunity to speak to the Government's new housing plan. I say "new" but, as we have heard, there is little new in it. It is called Housing for All but, as we know, this could not be further from the truth. The Minister's plan is just more of the status quo. He stated he recognises it is cheaper...
