Insurance Industry: Motion [Private Members] (1 Mar 2017)

Tom Neville: I too welcome the fact this issue has been raised. In my inaugural speech I said it was the issue raised with me by people on the doorsteps.

I welcome what the Minister of State, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, has done in recent months regarding the generation of the report,...

Topical Issue Debate: Mental Health Services (7 Mar 2017)

Tom Neville: I thank the Minister of State. I do not question her commitment to this issue. One of the big developments she has progressed is the 300 hours of mental health classes to help students maintain their well-being in the post-primary school sector. That is very welcome in terms of prevention and helping people as early as possible. However, I must highlight my frustration and that of the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: General Scheme of Childcare (Amendment) Bill 2017: Discussion (8 Mar 2017)

Tom Neville: For a new member like myself, cases such as the Grave case have happened in my lifetime and are very recent, and that has hit it home to me. Not to take away from the other subject which has arisen, which was before my time, for me and for my generation it beggars belief that this took place in our lifetime. Could the witnesses flesh out in more detail why they would prefer an independent...

Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs (Revised) (8 Mar 2017)

On administration non-pay versus the ECCE preschool programme, will the Minister flesh out the reasons for the 31% increase in the allocation for non-pay...

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Knowledge Development Box (Certification of Inventions) Bill 2016: Committee Stage (9 Mar 2017)

Tom Neville: I support what the Minister of State has said. We do not want to put in something that might stifle creativity, and stifle research and development of products particularly in the IT area. We are marketing Ireland as an IT hub and IT leader. We want to continue that from a research and development point of view. I understand the Deputy's concerns, but we do not want to use a sledgehammer...

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Knowledge Development Box (Certification of Inventions) Bill 2016: Committee Stage (9 Mar 2017)

Tom Neville: To follow on from what Deputy Rock said, the increase in new products will hopefully have a spin-off effect in terms of an increase in manufacturing. If a new product works well and one has done one's due diligence, one starts manufacturing it and one goes from there. I agree with the Minister of State on this. Much of the language used in the amendments is vague. There is a proposal to...
