Seanad: Health (Amendment) Bill 2020: Second Stage (23 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: It is regrettable, in the first instance, that we in the House have to bring forward legislation such as this. It is symptomatic of a desire on the part of certain people to ignore the basic guidelines. Looking through the window of where society currently is, there is the zero-Covid side on one extreme and, on the other, the herd immunity analysis. The reality is that most people are...

Seanad: Health (Amendment) Bill 2020: Second Stage (23 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: A great colleague at that.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (22 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: Broadband has been promised to every house in the State for over ten years now. It remains no more than a promise. The Government last year signed a contract with National Broadband Ireland to the value of approximately €3 billion. Since then, we have heard precious little from National Broadband Ireland on when it intends to begin the installation of broadband. At the time, the...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (16 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: Most Members will be familiar with the problems associated with pyrite and mica. However, they may not be aware that the schemes involving restitution for those affected by these issues are limited to certain areas, namely, counties Mayo and Donegal in respect of the defective block scheme and parts of counties Dublin and Meath in respect of pyrite. The pyrite scheme has been extended to...

Seanad: Shannon Group: Motion (14 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: I welcome the opportunity to contribute to the debate and I thank Senator Gavan who has a good understanding of the issues that arise at Shannon Airport. He and I share a lot in common on this particular issue. The facts of the matter are that the separation of Shannon Airport has not worked. There have been ups and downs and it has had some good periods and some bad periods but the...

Seanad: Shannon Group: Motion (14 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: We should go back to the model that existed prior to the DAA, which was Aer Rianta. This would be the way. This is where we need to go in terms of the review talked about in the amendment. This is the outcome I would like to see from the process. We should come to the point that the three airports are together, not named according to one particular airport or another but with an overall...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: General Scheme of the Climate Action and Low-Carbon Development (Amendment) Bill 2020: Discussion (14 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: I thank Mr. Carroll for the presentation. If the Government was minded to extend the just transition fund that currently exists for the midlands to include workers in the west Clare area who are significantly affected by the reduction in activity at Moneypoint, would it require an amendment or could it be done under the auspices of the Bill as it is currently drafted?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Aviation Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: I have a few questions for Mr. Dawson and Mr. Hackett. The Covid support scheme that was referred to in the budget yesterday links those payments to level 3 or above. That would suggest that travel agents are not included in that but they should be because they have been at level 5 since March. I thank Dr. Horn for the work he has done. There are a few areas we need to cover. The work...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Aviation Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2020)

Timmy Dooley: I will just come back on that. I would like to see the task force look at how we might structure aviation policy into the future. Previously, the three State airports operated under the banner of Aer Rianta, as three entities within that umbrella. I would like to see some consideration given to that again to see if that might be the best model rather than the competitive tension that...
