Mark Daly: Okay, Chairman.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade: Relations Between Ireland and Great Britain: Ambassador of Ireland to Great Britain (2 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: I thank the ambassador for his contribution. He outlined issues around the forgotten Irish in Britain and the organisations that look after them and the scale of this problem is growing every year. It was once proposed that those Irish living isolated lives in Britain, in terms of housing and communities that are no longer Irish in nature, could be brought back to Ireland. Is there any...

Mark Daly: I am just asking questions.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade: Relations Between Ireland and Great Britain: Ambassador of Ireland to Great Britain (2 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: Either we did not raise this issue at an official level with the British Government or we did. Ironically, when I wrote to Downing Street asking about the letter in question the reply was sent to Senator Mark Daly and Marcus Ó Dálaigh.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade: Relations Between Ireland and Great Britain: Ambassador of Ireland to Great Britain (2 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: I just ask for it to be raised. The programme by the RTE special investigations unit on the "hooded men" will have ongoing consequences around the world. The Irish Government took a case to the European Court of Human Rights and information was withheld by the British Government.
- Seanad: Adjournment Matters: Planning Issues (1 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: I have a very simple question on planning legislation passed by the previous Government whereby those whose planning permission was about to expire were able to apply to a local authority by way of a very simple mechanism to have it extended for a period of up to five years. Obviously, it was hoped that banks would begin lending and that people would be able to build on those sites in that...
- Seanad: Adjournment Matters: Planning Issues (1 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: I thank the Minister of State for his reply and wish him the best of luck in the election. The issue here is not only one for private developers who have zoned lands and planning permissions, but also for those who hold single permissions for one-off developments in the countryside. It is also an issue for the Government, because NAMA has a large number of properties which are subject to...

- Seanad: Order of Business (1 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: I am calling on the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport not to be a hypocrite because if what is happening now was wrong at the time, it is wrong today. It is blatant, shameful, disgusting cronyism of the highest order. It is jobs for the boys and girls but not many for the girls and should stop. I remind Senators opposite of what is stated in the programme for Government, to which...
- Seanad: Order of Business (1 Jul 2014)
Mark Daly: The Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport is too busy stuffing State boards. Ministers are not paying attention to their budgets. My colleague, Senator John Crown, has called for the Minister for Health, Deputy James Reilly, to stay in his current position. I would like him to come into the House before he goes anywhere else to explain the shambles in the Department of Health. We have...
