Home Care: Motion [Private Members] (8 Nov 2022)

Johnny Mythen: Home care is one of the most essential parts of looking after the well-being, mental health and welfare of our treasured older citizens and those living with disabilities. Many people who require this service are coming out of hospital. Coming out of hospital is a very worrying time for anyone, but doubly so for older people who may be facing mobility challenges. It is proven that home...

Mental Health (Capacity to Consent to Treatment) Bill 2021: Second Stage [Private Members] (27 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: I thank the Minister of State. We are a little bit disappointed that the Bill is not being supported. However, we also recognise that it is not about who brings forward the Bill, rather, it is about consent and the right of consent of people aged 16 and 17. That is what it is about. We will work together on this. I am glad the Minister of State accepted the principle that we put forward....

Mental Health (Capacity to Consent to Treatment) Bill 2021: Second Stage [Private Members] (27 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: I move: "That the Bill be now read a Second Time." I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, for attending this debate. I hope we can all agree with the intention behind this Bill, which attempts to progress an issue on which work is long overdue. The aim of the Bill is to amend the Mental Health Act 2001 to provide a right for minors over the age of 16 to consent to mental health...

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (26 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: It is a shame that the likes of a team such as Tyrone can play in the All-Ireland, raise the Sam Maguire Cup and their families at home cannot watch it on TV. That is an issue.

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (26 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: If we rely on RTÉ and its obligations, or this process, nothing will happen. It is up to us to protect workers in this country, as citizens and workers. It is a simple policy principle of equal pay for equal work, which everybody should have the right to. The amendment should stand. Relying on the obligations of RTÉ to do something will not do.

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (26 Oct 2022)

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (26 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: This is important legislation. When we met the stakeholders, many of them stressed that children of four, five or six are able to identify particular brands even on television at the moment. How they operate at times is not kosher. As the Minister said, the protection of children is the most important thing. This should be regarded as one of the most important issues in the Bill as it is...

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (26 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: We are asking for a code to be produced. Obviously, codes will be produced relating to harm, self-harm and all that type of thing. This type of code would help these workers who have a very unique job, which entails viewing a lot of horrible stuff which we know goes on in the world. However, those who need to look at it for hours on end should be protected. It should be included in one of...

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (26 Oct 2022)

Johnny Mythen: The Minister is mixing up workers' rights and workers' protection. There is a difference. What these people are exposed to, not rights, is the issue. It is in the industry itself. As I said, it is a unique industry. That is the point I am trying to make.
