Independent Reporting Commission Bill 2017: Committee and Remaining Stages (14 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Sinn Féin welcomes the passage of the Bill, which is part of the outworkings of the Fresh Start agreement. It is a pity that many of the promises in previous agreements have not been delivered as quickly as this one as we would not be in the current lacuna in terms of setting up the Executive. It behoves all of us in the House, and outside it, to be as constructive as possible rather...

Defence Forces Operations: Motion (Resumed) (13 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I urge all parties, including the Government, to support our amendment that this vote be deferred until such time as the Joint Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence has considered it. Despite the claims of the Minister earlier today, there is no urgency. Why would we sign up to an operation that is nearing the end of its mandate in December, given that it would take at least...

Mediation Bill 2017: Report Stage (11 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: There are quite a number of other points that I could make about these amendments. A key point is that it is not a voluntary process if a person has been the victim of domestic violence, because often emotional blackmail is involved or the former relationship has left one of the parties feeling inadequate or unequal to the dominant person. The Minister mentioned a remedy through the...

Mediation Bill 2017: Report Stage (11 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I have listened to what the Minister has said. I am here because Deputy O'Brien is attending a committee meeting dealing with the Citizens' Assembly report. He cannot be in two places at once, which is a pity. I am mindful that it is not just Deputy O'Brien who suggests this. Others, as I mentioned earlier, who deal day in, day out with the victims of domestic violence have suggested the...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: What he outlined is relevant to a case in respect of which proceedings have begun. Sometimes an allegation is made but that does not mean proceedings have begun or are ever likely to begin.

However, sometimes...

Other Questions: Defence Forces Medicinal Products (11 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: This is not a question on the administration of Lariam per se. The Minister of State made a comment that it was not up to the Dáil to make a decision on medical advice and the administration of Lariam.
