Maximising Artificial Intelligence: Statements (19 Feb 2025)

Gary Gannon: I listened to the previous Government speaker who repeated something said yesterday. It is almost as if you cannot talk about regulation if you have a social media account. What a banal and boring analysis of the situation.

Maximising Artificial Intelligence: Statements (19 Feb 2025)

Gary Gannon: It is the equivalent of saying you are not allowed talk about banking regulation if you have a bank account. The only person I remember in the Chamber who could meet that standard was the former leader of Fianna Fáil. What a weird analogy. For years we were sold the dream that automation and AI would free people from drudgery, allowing society to prosper and with fewer working...

Housing Crisis: Motion [Private Members] (19 Feb 2025)

Gary Gannon: Almost every single week, I have listened to the Taoiseach responding in a very tedious manner to legitimate questions from the Opposition, including ourselves in the Social Democrats.

Parliamentary debate means that we...

Gary Gannon: Where is the strategy, then?

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (18 Feb 2025)

Gary Gannon: The Taoiseach is presiding over a Government that seems to see crime as something to be responded to only after the fact. I read the programme for Government once again earlier, I heard the Taoiseach's statements and I listened to the Minister for Justice on the radio over the weekend. There does not seem to be any co-ordinated strategy for a violence reduction approach. I hear the...

European Union Regulations: Motion (12 Feb 2025)

Gary Gannon: I support this motion and I will continue to do so as it progresses through the Dáil because it is about giving young people back the opportunities that they lost after Brexit. Regardless of what the scheme is called, whether it is the UK-EU youth experience or otherwise, it actually enables the British Labour Party to find its courage and recognise swiftly and loudly that Brexit has...

Programme for Government: Statements (Resumed) (11 Feb 2025)

Gary Gannon: When I consider the programme for Government we are now asked to speak about, the image that comes to mind is from the plinth in the early stages of the Dáil when a number of members of the Government, who are now established as members of the Government, stood there and said they would support this Government through the good times and the bad. That phrase has been reiterated in...
