Mattie McGrath: On behalf of the Rural Independents, I want to condemn both sides in Israel - the horrific attack by Hamas and, indeed, the ongoing response of the Israelis - and the death of that young Irish citizen. It is horrific. I want to ask the Tánaiste how come the Government had a budget this week and it did not even mention these workers who are going on strike next week. Forced to go on...

- Financial Resolutions 2023 - Financial Resolution No. 4: General (Resumed) (11 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: Budget 2024 has spectacularly failed to provide relief to workers. Despite significant financial flexibility, the Government has neglected the concerns of working men and women throughout the country. The Government talks about this but it did not do anything meaningful with the USC. The cuts introduced offer limited relief to low income families while the decision to cut the universal...

- Financial Resolutions 2023 - Financial Resolution No. 1: Mineral Oil Tax (10 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: I support the Sinn Féin amendment. Many workers are feeling hard done by. From today, the average working family will be approximately €15 per week better off.

I acknowledge the risk of poverty to anyone on social welfare, particularly those on disability, pensioners and one-parent families and the...

- Financial Resolutions 2023 - Budget Statement 2024 (10 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: Ar an gcéad dul síos, I congratulate the Minister for Finance, Deputy McGrath, on his first budget. I am delighted that his wife and seven children were here to listen. However, it is a failed opportunity. It is a typical accountant’s budget that just moves the figures around and manages them. The Minister, Deputy Donohoe, said it was a great country in which to be a...
