Alan Kelly: In other words, the quid pro quo does not cut it. Most of my questions have been asked but I was very taken by the three-year review, on which I have a query. Things move so fast that broadcasters might have to be more dynamic. That is one thing. The second point relates to additionality. It has come up in this committee all the time. After the levy, additionality is the issue that...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport: General Scheme of the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill: Discussion (Resumed) (18 Jun 2025)
Alan Kelly: I agree with Ms Kirby. It will also be a time when the Irish Government will want a lot of public service content. I also sit on the justice committee. It is amazing that the Garda Representative Association was pointing out that this is a time when we need an awful lot of resources from An Garda Síochána. I think the witnesses will know what I am saying. It will be a time...

We will come out with recommendations subsequent to all of these meetings. We...

- Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (26 Jun 2025)
Alan Kelly: I attended a public meeting on Monday night in Ballymackey outside Nenagh organised by a biogas concern group. I also met groups here a week earlier. Despite the issue of the location of the plan possibly being unsuitable, which road networks alone would dictate, we are committed as a country to achieving certain renewable goals in this area by 2030. It is proposed that there would be over...
- Criminal Justice (Terrorist Offences) (Amendment) Bill 2025: Second Stage (26 Jun 2025)
Alan Kelly: We need to be very careful with this Bill. The Minister needs to get this right because there are legitimate concerns about it. The purpose of the Bill is to give effect to the EU directive 2017/541 on combating terrorism, which is to a large extent directed at the foreign terrorist fighter phenomenon. The Bill includes offences of travelling to commit a terrorist offence, facilitating...

It was months ago, long before this young man took his own life. Members will be aware that journalist John Lee wrote about it in the Mail on Sunday. So much has happened in this case that does not add up. This creates a...

Vote 24 - Justice (Further Revised) (24 Jun 2025) Alan Kelly: I have several questions. I raised here with the Garda Commissioner the fact that, some weeks ago, An Garda destroyed a range of ammunition and guns. This cost €160,000. It was the famous range of guns and ammunition whose storage in Garda headquarters I am sure the Minister is aware I have referred to many times. The Minister might take a look at the picture I have to hand in this...
