Financial Resolution No. 3: Stamp Duties - Section 126AA Bank Levy (8 Oct 2019)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am opposed to the proposed increase in Financial Resolution No. 4 in respect of non-residential properties, which will affect farmers. The farmers are badly enough off, as was outlined earlier today. We all know that for farmers to continue to exist they must invariably buy a bit of land to increase production and stay in the race. For that reason, I oppose Resolution No. 4. It would...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Oct 2019)

Danny Healy-Rae: It is a fact that it has been raining in County Kerry for at least seven weeks. Cattle have been housed for several weeks. Farmers in the North of Ireland, the other side of the ditch, may spread slurry when the weather is right. The land is drenched at the moment. Farmers want to be allowed to spread slurry legally such that they do not lose their single farm payments.

Health and Childcare Support (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2019 [Seanad]: Second Stage (15 Oct 2019)

Danny Healy-Rae: In the short time available, I hope that whatever agreement happens our health service does not get any worse. It could not be any worse. We are taking children to have their tonsils and eyes seen in the North. We are lucky to be able to do that. I had a very sad experience recently dealing with a nine year old child from another country who moved to Killarney. I had to take that nine...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (16 Oct 2019)

Danny Healy-Rae: I too call for the lifting of the injunctions on these farmers in the spirit of the deal that was agreed. It is a shame that those people are still being threatened with an injunction. I point out that the price of beef has actually fallen in the past few weeks to €3.30 and €3.20 per kilogram. Farmers cannot survive on that. The quicker the Minister realises that, the...

Acknowledgement and Apology to Women and Families affected by CervicalCheck Debacle: Statements (22 Oct 2019)

Danny Healy-Rae: I welcome all those in the Visitors Gallery who have been affected by this sad debacle. I thank the Taoiseach for apologising on behalf of the Government for the failures of the State and the health system which let down so many women, with their husbands, partners, children, parents, grandparents and siblings. I especially thank two women, Emma Mhic Mhathúna who has departed and Vicky...

An tOrd Gnó (Atógáil) - Order of Business (Resumed) (22 Oct 2019)

Danny Healy-Rae: If someone else has something to say about it, let him or her say it. That is what I am saying. 5 o’clock Provisional drivers have a serious problem because they cannot get to their apprenticeships or go to college. I ask the Taoiseach to reduce the age from 17, where the youngster gets a provisional licence, to 16 years of age. This is the case in many other countries. They...
