Covid-19 Vaccine Roll-out: Statements (27 May 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I thank the Ministers for their speeches today and for their work. In the short time available, I want to ask several questions and I do not know if the Ministers will have time to answer me. On a question to the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, I want to raise the issue of day centres. There will be an announcement tomorrow but respite has never resumed in Galway. It is painful to walk...

Covid-19 Vaccine Roll-out: Statements (27 May 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I will stick with the five things I was going to ask. The question on day centres and respite has been asked. In regard to Connemara, I reiterate what was said and I will not repeat it, but arrangements should be made and they cannot possibly travel into town and across town. I am not sure where pharmacists are at. I am not sure why we made an agreement with the pharmacists but have not...

Health (Amendment) Act 2021: Motion (27 May 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I absolutely agree that absolute power is never healthy but I think the Minister has done well on this by standing by what he believes in when it comes to quarantine. I agree with him. My difficulty is it should have been brought in last year and that when it was brought in this year, that happened as a result of pressure and in a way that was destined not to succeed. There was no...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Traffic Management (27 May 2021)

Catherine Connolly: I thank the Ceann Comhairle for choosing this matter for Topical Issue debate. I am glad the Minister of State, Deputy Naughton, is here because I know she is more than familiar with what has happened in Galway. Many of her colleagues on the council have spoken out on this matter. It is an issue I raise reluctantly as it should be managed locally. Unfortunately, the event last Sunday,...

This is not about the public gathering but about a relatively small number of people organising an event that is not controlled. It is about the Garda being overwhelmed because when I spoke to some members of the force, they...
