Other Questions: Fáilte Ireland Staff (8 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: I thank the Minister. That was the answer I expected. I do not buy this rubbish to the effect that this was done before the Minister started. Actually, it was done in April and the Minister took up office in May. I would have expected that someone who chased these issues from the seats above not so long ago would have stopped this process and ensured that the PAS was used. I have...

Other Questions: Fáilte Ireland Staff (8 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: I would appreciate if the Minister answered the questioned I asked. He did not say he has confidence in PAS. I raised this issue previously. At the time, the Minister had not even met representatives from Fáilte Ireland. It took the Minister six months or so to meet representatives from Fáilte Ireland. Under the Acts, the authority has to get the Minister to sign off on the...

Other Questions: Air Quality (7 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: I do not doubt the sincerity of the Minister. I am raising this issue because people feel let down. They have come to me as the former Minister with responsibility in this area. The strategy was to be announced by the middle of last year, if not before. The Minister has committed to a smoky coal ban by 2018 on the record of the Dáil. Since notification must be made one year in...

Other Questions: Air Quality (7 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: I welcome the Minister back to the House. I want to know the progress on the national clean air strategy, which is an issue close to my heart. For the information of Deputies, more people die due to the quality of air in this country than die in road accidents. It is a huge issue, and one on which we have made major progress. I would like the Minister to give us good news in regard to the...

Other Questions: Air Quality (7 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: I have good time for the Minister but, to be honest, that is not an answer. In fact, the Minister did not answer the question at all. We have lost 15 months on this. The Minister knows it is an issue that is close to my heart and that I introduced the clean air strategy, but, 15 months on, nothing has happened. The smoky coal ban which was to be in place for the 2017-18 season has now...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (2 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: When was the decision taken to remove the staff? It is not anyone's fault here.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (2 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: Should we not have been told then? The consequence would have been for us to measure-----

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (2 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: My question really relates to the following. We do work programme planning here every week. There are resources there that are specialised because of the work of Project Eagle. There are staff working on that. Some of those staff were removed and we were not informed. Our work programme planning has gone out of kilter because we are not aware of what staff were there to do the work in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Primary Care Services: Discussion (2 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: You could actually. We all have to deal with-----

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Primary Care Services: Discussion (2 Feb 2017)

Alan Kelly: I welcome the witnesses. I apologise for being late. Unfortunately I am on two committees that sit at the same time on Thursday mornings, so I have to jump between the Committee of Public Accounts and the Joint Committee on Health. Like Deputies O'Reilly and Kelleher, I too am a member of the Committee on the Future of Healthcare, which is devising a plan for the next ten years. Politics...
