Dentistry Services: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (22 May 2024)

Marian Harkin: ...recommendations are really important but, to me, this is a core one. Normally when I speak, I cite lots of statistics to make the case for change and I will give the House some statistics from Sligo-Leitrim in a minute or two. Today I want to give an example of the many emails I have received which tell of the utter frustration and disbelief of parents as they seek dental care for...

Thomas Pringle: ...cost of living, the housing shortage has made owning a home a pipe dream for most people in my constituency and across the country. Renting is not an option for many either. It was revealed this week that Donegal and Sligo have seen some of the highest increases in rent prices in the first three months of 2024. The latest Daft.ie report shows that rents in Donegal were 13.3% higher than...

Housing for All: Statements (21 May 2024)

Darragh O'Brien: ...to the defective concrete block scheme. These are two very firm commitments the Government made to step in when there was a market failure. It did so not only to get homes back together and remediated but also to help to get people's lives back together. We are seeing an acceleration of applications across affected counties. I recently added County Sligo to the defective concrete...

Mattie McGrath: ...day week ago. He and his colleagues have a great vision - vision is not a pun but it is very important - of how we can make things better here for eye treatments and cataract operations. We looked at the Sligo model, which was a success. He told me last week that he is half half-tempted to give up because he is meeting resistance, blockages and roadblocks that he had never anticipated....

At...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Regional Development (16 May 2024)

I am talking about the completion of the N17 from Charlestown to Sligo. The Minister mentioned the Donegal TEN-T project. It is still not up and running despite the fact that it was in a national development plan in 2000. We have the upgrade of the...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Rail Network (16 May 2024)

Martin Kenny: ...argument across the line. I feel another problem we have with it is that when an analysis is done of passenger numbers, it is done in much too narrow a scope. For instance, when I lived not far from the Sligo-Dublin rail line, people got on and off the train from Dublin in Dromod in County Leitrim. Many of them are from as far away as west Cavan because it is the nearest railway to...

As the Deputy is aware the proposed scheme would run on regional routes from Dundalk to Cavan and national routes from Cavan to Sligo.

Road Safety and Maintenance: Motion [Private Members] (15 May 2024)
