Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: -----but his Government for the fact it is bringing in policies that will drive up the cost of rent for many people. Students will not buy his line of argument. They will see through his spin. Many students are going to see their rent and the cost of their accommodation increase. They know it. They know the Government does not have their backs. The Tánaiste talks about a balance,...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: It is more money for them and more profit for them, which is always the case under Fine Gael, which represents a cosseted, privileged class, from my perspective.

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: Ordinary people who have to pay increased costs on groceries, insurance and now rent are the ones who are paying the price. The Tánaiste should stand up once and for all. He should not be blaming Sinn Féin for something we did not do and take responsibility for his actions. The Central Bank made it clear today this will hurt those same people. Take responsibility for it, stop...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: More spin, more bluster.

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: People are not buying any of that bluster.

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: The high energy has fizzled out. Gone.

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: Well, now.

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: I have lost count of the number of times I have raised the need for funding for Waterford Airport in the House. In fact, I have raised this several times with the Tánaiste – almost a dozen at this point. I have also raised it several times with the Taoiseach and the relevant Minister. Despite all the personal statements of support I have received, more of which I have no doubt...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Apprenticeship Programmes (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: I too have been contacted by the Waterford-Wexford ETB. The issue seems to relate to the contract training programme for apprenticeships. My understanding is that there was a bid process previously, known as a funding allocation request, FAR, to the then Department of Education, based on the number of apprenticeships an ETB would fund and they would get the funding on that basis....

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Apprenticeship Programmes (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: The Minister has acknowledged that a funding pressure has been identified so we know there is an issue. The question then is how it will be resolved. I welcome that the Minister said no class or apprenticeship will be either suspended or cancelled. I have been told by the Waterford-Wexford ETB that many of the phase 2 classes for July have not been called, which could affect up to 500...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: I have never found it so difficult to prepare for a session of any committee. I have been in the Oireachtas since 2011. The reason I found it so difficult is the full breadth of crises and scandals in CHI. I say to Ms Nugent that it is almost impossible in this session for us to give justice to the families who feel let down. We had the Boston review. We had the HIQA review into the use...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: Who referred it to An Garda Síochána?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: Why did CHI not refer it to An Garda Síochána?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: One second, please. It is CHI's view that they did not meet the threshold. Since Ms Killeen White referred it to An Garda Síochána, did she get any correspondence or any view from CHI, even now, with regard to whether it felt it appropriate that it was referred to An Garda Síochána?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: I did not ask that. I asked that since Ms Killeen White referred the report to An Garda Síochána, has she had any communication or view from CHI as to whether or not, even now, it should have been referred?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: That is since it was referred.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Treatment of Children with Dysplasia and Scoliosis and Related Matters: Discussion (19 Jun 2025)

David Cullinane: I find that extraordinary. The HSE was informed by CHI about this unpublished report at a meeting in March 2022. That is what CHI says. Is that correct?
