- Seanad: Order of Business (6 Mar 2013)
Mark Daly: I always welcome Senator David Norris' contributions. Brigadier General Thomas Meagher was sent to Van Diemen's Land from where he escaped and arrived in America in the 1850s where he led the Irish Brigade in some of the biggest battles of the American Civil War, notably the battle of Fredericksburg, to which John F. Kennedy referred in his address to the Oireachtas. The highest compliment...

- Seanad Public Consultation Committee: Social Entrepreneurship: Discussion (21 Feb 2013)
Mark Daly: My question is directed to everybody. I thank them for their presentation. Ireland is very much an individual-based society and the leading person, whether in politics or in social entrepreneurship, is very much identified with the organisation. It is a great sign that Ms Casey is stepping down in the interest of allowing the organisation to outlast and grow beyond her. Some of the...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade: Trade Promotion: Discussion (Resumed) with British Irish Chamber of Commerce (20 Feb 2013)
Mark Daly: Some issues have already been touched on. I thank the delegation for coming before the committee. For anyone who gets an opportunity to talk to Mr. Aiken afterwards, his previous life is almost more exciting than his current one. Referendums are coming down the line, including the one in the UK on EU membership, which this committee would regard as having more to do with UK politics than...

- Seanad: Adjournment Matters: Ambulance Service (20 Feb 2013)
Mark Daly: I am sure the Minister of State will be able to find the answer for me. I am grateful for his statement and for the previous briefing I received from experts in the field. Hidden in the Minister of State's statement is Civil Service-speak for box-ticking and ensuring that benchmarks are reached. When average call-out times are referred to, what is really meant is that a person will be seen...
- Seanad: Adjournment Matters: Ambulance Service (20 Feb 2013)

Mark Daly: Before commencing I welcome the research staff of St. Vincent's Hospital who work with Senator John Crown. It is apt that my question is on the ambulance service, although a long way from St. Vincent's Hospital. I welcome the Minister of State to the House. We miss him since he left. The matter I wish to raise concerns the people who will be affected by the proposed cut in ambulance...

Mark Daly: I congratulate the Taoiseach on what was a full apology to the women who were in the Magdalen institutions, an apology which was long overdue from successive Governments. It is a tribute to him that he appointed Mr. Martin McAleese to the Seanad to carry out that very difficult task of researching what had happened in the Magdalen laundries, culminating in the report presented and last...
