- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Engagement with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (31 Jan 2023)
Christopher O'Sullivan: I thank Deputy Devlin. Before we wrap up, I have more of a statement than a question.

- Interim Report on Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Statements (26 Jan 2023)
Christopher O'Sullivan: I welcome this opportunity to talk about CAMHS in CHO 4 in particular, which covers west Cork, including my constituency. There is clearly an issue there.

When one hears terms like this is a sell-out and a land-grab, perhaps some of that commentary is overplayed. He is also correct in his assertion that, at the moment, land use in general is an emitter as opposed to a sequester of carbon. For years we have been getting it wrong. I know the Minister of...

Christopher O'Sullivan: In the first instance I welcome the Rural Independent Group motion. In doing so I note some of the accusations being levelled at the Minister that he has done nothing for the inshore sector, of ignoring the sector, of neglect and this constant mudslinging which we are seeing from the Opposition representatives towards him.
