Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank my colleague, Deputy Mac Lochlainn, for tabling this important motion.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Shared Island Unit (29 Sep 2020)

Rose Conway-Walsh: It really concerns me and many of the Taoiseach's grassroots and lifelong supporters that nowhere in the 1,900 words of the programme for Government section on the shared island unit does it mention a united Ireland. That is why many supporters of the Taoiseach's party are leaving and joining Sinn Féin. I can only speak from my experience in Mayo on that. This concerns me as the...

Rose Conway-Walsh: One can work with them but one should not trust them.

EU-UK Negotiations on Brexit: Statements (24 Sep 2020)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank the Minister for his statement. While I do not wish to go over what has already been said, regardless of the outcome of the internal market Bill, and whether it is passed or not, the whole process involved has demonstrated very clearly to us what we would have already known, which is that we cannot trust the British. It should put us on a whole different level because, while...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (24 Sep 2020)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I welcome the Minister's announcement that he will intervene in respect of accommodation costs. I will change my question. Does he think it is fair that utility companies such as Electric Ireland are incentivising people to go online to pay their bills? People are being asked a deposit of €300 if they wish to continue paying at their post office. I am really concerned about the...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Rail Network (24 Sep 2020)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I agree with everything the Minister said. He does not have to sell the project to me or my colleagues in the Chamber, but we need action on it. This is a shovel-ready project and the time for tweaking and talking is over. We are impatient. We need the Minister to do what he says he will do. The reopening has been included in every plan, including the sustainable public transport...
