Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: It is correct.

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: The Tánaiste gave an interview at the weekend that caused a lot of anger. He said young people considering emigrating because of the extortionate housing costs could find the grass is always greener. He said if they go to a successful busy city, they will find the same high rents as here but the rents could be lower if they went to "a very rural area or a third or fourth tier city". ...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: I did not hear what the approach will be. The Tánaiste needs to tell us what that approach will be and what difference it will make. Is he aware that commencements are down by 30% in the past three months? Only yesterday there was a report about a reduction in the number of mortgage approvals, which is not a metric I want to see. What does the Tánaiste mean when he talks about...

Catherine Murphy: The revelations in recent weeks about the extent of the gross sexual abuse inflicted on children in Blackrock College over decades are horrifying but we have come to the stage now that they are no longer surprising.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2021: National Lottery Fund (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: I reiterate the points on the 98% and 2%, which was the standout issue in the chapter produced by the Comptroller and Auditor General. I question why the information came through the Comptroller and Auditor General and not the Office of the National Lottery Regulator, which would have been the obvious place. That took many of us by surprise and the 98% and 2% is way out of line with what I...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2021: National Lottery Fund (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: Where is it on the website?

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2021: National Lottery Fund (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: Has Ms Boate sought changes to allow her to put that information into the public arena? It seems ridiculous that it requires the Comptroller and Auditor General to do that.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2021: National Lottery Fund (24 Nov 2022)

Catherine Murphy: I found it misleading and will leave it there. I wish to ask Mr. Nolan about the spending of the income accrued from the national lottery. In 2021, Benefacts was able to provide a breakdown thanks to the way that database captured information. This was important. The term "good causes" almost sounds charitable. I would have expected there to be a national framework that allowed us to...
