- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (18 Sep 2024)
Mary Lou McDonald: Go raibh maith agat, a Cheann Comhairle. The Taoiseach's treatment of children with scoliosis and spina bifida who are waiting for surgery is disgraceful. These children wait in agony for operations that can save and change their lives and the longer they wait, the worse their condition gets. It is a race against the clock and against the child's condition becoming inoperable and the...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (18 Sep 2024)
Mary Lou McDonald: The difficulty is the Taoiseach has not done everything he can to resolve this situation. Harvey's parents, Steven and Gillian, are in the Public Gallery. They should not be here. They very fact that parents of children with scoliosis and spina bifida have to come to the Dáil in this way is a testament to failure in and of itself because their child is running out of time. That is...

Mary Lou McDonald: I thank the Ceann Comhairle. I again raise the issue of safety in Dublin, particularly in Dublin's inner city. As the Taoiseach will know, last Saturday, there was a very vicious attack in Thomas Street in the south inner city on tourists visiting the capital. It was shocking. It happened at 7.30 p.m, and it is not an isolated incident - far from it. I have raised this issue with the...

- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Sep 2024)
Mary Lou McDonald: The debacle surrounding the construction of the national children's hospital continues. At the weekend, we learned that the hospital's completion date will be missed yet again. We are now looking at a completion date of 2026, and we cannot even be sure of that. A report from KPMG published this morning calls into question whether the hospital will be ready to open even when it is built....
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Sep 2024)
Mary Lou McDonald: Yet again, we see not just a grossly incompetent Government, but one that is entirely unprepared to take responsibility, much less to be accountable, for anything. It is the board's fault. It is the contractor's fault. Of course, it is Sinn Féin's fault. How could it not be? Let me recite this again. On 17 occasions, the completion date has fallen through. There is an overspend...
