- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: I will make a couple of final points. I, too, lend my support for the retention of Lyric FM in Limerick. I hope the decision will be taken on sound grounds rather than on a request from the Taoiseach. It would not be appropriate for RTÉ to make a decision based on a request from the Taoiseach just because he is ponying up €10 million of taxpayers' money. The business case...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: I was hoping there was some kind of plan to address that. Sometimes it is a matter of accepting the reality, like "newsflash - we are all going to die". A crisis can be viewed as an existential one or just problems to be solved, working on morale. Perhaps this is something to address. What is Ms Cusack's view on the freelance contributors and the implications?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: Were there not some issues about people who were contracted but who essentially should have been employees?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion (10 Dec 2019)

- Environmental Impact of Quarries and Incinerators: Motion [Private Members] (4 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: I welcome the opportunity to address this important debate. I thank my colleague, Deputy O'Dea, for tabling this motion. He and I operate in side by side constituencies and we are equally disturbed by the proposals to put an incinerator in place that will impact negatively on the livelihoods of people in the region. We do not believe it is acceptable to our communities. Nor is it right...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Overcrowding (4 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: All of that sounds fantastic, but the reality is that it is not having an impact on the ground. Trolley numbers at University Hospital Limerick are still unacceptably high and are entirely out of sync with every other hospital in the country. The only solution is for the Minister to appoint a senior official within the HSE or the Department of Health, or an external independent consultant,...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Overcrowding (4 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: Good. I will call off the protest so.
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Overcrowding (4 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: I welcome the opportunity to raise the important issue of overcrowding at University Hospital Limerick, UHL. I am disappointed that the Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, has not got the time, inclination or interest to be here to discuss such an important issue. He has no problem, however, travelling to Limerick next week to participate in the opening of what is referred to as the health...

- Written Answers — Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Forestry Grants (3 Dec 2019)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Data Collection by Digital Assistants: Discussion (Resumed) (3 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: I thank the witnesses for coming in. This is helpful. Our concerns were probably aroused by the information that came about as a result of the situation Mr. Davis talked about at Apple. It was a surprise to many people that data was captured in this way, that it was stored, that it was later used and that it was reviewed by humans, albeit to enhance the user experience. The biggest...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Data Collection by Digital Assistants: Discussion (Resumed) (3 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: Apple identified a unique random identifier. Is Mr. Davis saying that under no circumstances, whether a law enforcement request or whatever, Apple could find some key to trace that back, at a minimum, to the device, recognising that the device will present itself elsewhere using other codes that are connected with an email and a telephone number?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Data Collection by Digital Assistants: Discussion (Resumed) (3 Dec 2019)
Timmy Dooley: Mr. Davis has set out a standard that Apple applies. Does Google follow the same standard?
