Residential Tenancies (No. 2) Bill 2021: Second Stage (23 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: Fáiltím roimh an deis páirt a ghlacadh sa díospóireacht seo. Tá mo thacaíocht go huile is go hiomlán taobh thiar den reachtaíocht seo mar go dtugann sí síneadh ama do na cosaintí atá ar fáil do thionóntaí.

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (23 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: Tá seirbhísí faoisimh nó respite services á n-ardú agam inniu. Tá sé níos cirte easpa sheirbhísí faoisimh a rá, i nGaillimh ach go háirithe, ach de réir mar a thuigim, ar fud na tíre. I am referring to respite services. I am in receipt of a letter, dated 14 June, confirming there are no respite services in Galway...

National Maternity Hospital: Motion [Private Members] (23 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: Tá sé breis agus 70 bliain ó a forógraíodh an tír seo ina Phoblacht. Roimh an bhforógra sin, agus faraor, tar éis an fhorógra sin, níor cuireadh mórán béime ar ghuthanna na mban nó ar chearta na mban. Faraor, sa 21ú aois, táimid fós ag brath ar chomhlacht príobháideach agus ar charthanacht chun...

Ábhair Shaincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Matters (23 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I wish to advise the House of the following matters in respect of which notice has been given under Standing Order 37 and the name of the Member in each case: (1) Deputy Bríd Smith - to discuss the impact of the quota for hook and line mackerel fishing on our coastal communities; (2) Deputy Patrick Costello - to discuss the appointment of a local community representative to the digital...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Covid-19 Pandemic (22 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I think the Minister of State is failing to grasp the significance of what is happening here. We are sending out a message that businesses can take over public spaces and serve alcohol, which breaches by-laws that prevent the consumption of alcohol in such spaces. That is one message that is being sent out. The Government is placing the Garda in an impossible position. Galway City...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Covid-19 Pandemic (22 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I welcome the opportunity, however short, to raise this matter with the Minister of State. I have a slightly different view on it from my colleagues. First, I think the Garda has done us a favour in highlighting the difficulties its members are facing in being asked to use their discretion. That is extremely difficult to do. In fact, we know from history and various tribunals that it is...

Catherine Connolly: I think there is a little discretion because two questions are being taken together.

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Arts Policy (22 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: Yes. I think the rule is that a little discretion is shown if a Deputy goes over one minute. I thank the Minister. One of the advantages of being Leas-Cheann Comhairle is that I have a copy of the Minister's answer but she read an additional answer that I do not have. She might supply me with that because the answer I have is a basic one. I welcome what she has set out but I would like...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Arts Policy (22 Jun 2021)

Catherine Connolly: The best legacy we would all like to see would be a basic income for artists. We think of the amount of money that went into Galway 2020, without a basic income for artists. That issue will come up later in another question. On buildings, I would love to see what we are getting from Galway 2020. Has progress been made on the An Post building? I think it has but the Minister might...
