- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (10 Apr 2019)
Micheál Martin: The PwC report on the very significant overspend on the national children's hospital represents a damning indictment of the Government's stewardship of the entire project. Red flags were missed, the public spending code was not adhered to, the project was poorly co-ordinated and controlled, there was fragmentation, poor communication and poor flow of information. That is all in the report....
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (10 Apr 2019)
Micheál Martin: Can the Tánaiste state with certainty that this will stay within €2 billion? The idea that it is a gross underestimation does not reflect what the report is saying. The report is saying there was a complete absence of control, incoherence, lack of information, red flags, poor governance and so on. It is similar to other projects. The Government has not learned. With regard to...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (10 Apr 2019)
Micheál Martin: The same happened here, there is no control. No one is asking any questions at Cabinet level. I asked the Tánaiste about the letter from the Department of Health of May 2017. What led to that change of governance structure? Why was a new governance structure required? Is it still the Government's position that no one raised these red flags at any stage-----
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (10 Apr 2019)
Micheál Martin: -----with the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform or with the Minister for Health? Is that still the Government's position, that right up to December no one raised this? We know the Minister was told in the summer but apparently he told nobody. He told no one in the Cabinet that this thing had ballooned out of control and the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform says that no...

Micheál Martin: Some weeks ago I questioned the Tánaiste on Dublin Port's policy on cruise ships and the decision to reduce the number of cruise ships from 2021 to 2023 to 80 ships per annum and how that would have a very negative impact on Belfast and Cork in terms of cruise companies deciding to come to Ireland in the first instance. I have tabled parliamentary questions to the Minister for...

Micheál Martin: Before I commence my question, I join with the Taoiseach in offering our sympathies to the French people on the appalling fire that destroyed Notre Dame Cathedral yesterday evening. The cathedral belongs to the French people, but in many ways it belongs to the world. Many Members have experienced the joy of visiting it. Our sympathy and support go to the French people on the damage to such...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (16 Apr 2019)
Micheál Martin: -----very serious. I therefore ask that the Government ensure that such a forensic audit of the FAI's finances be organised and that the opportunity is taken to ensure restoration of proper corporate governance and a new era for the Football Association of Ireland arising out of this sorry saga.
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (16 Apr 2019)
Micheál Martin: The Taoiseach did not seem to answer the one question I put to him about the need to commission an independent, robust, forensic audit of the FAI's finances. They have been clouded too much in obfuscation to date. We simply have not been told anything as to why such a loan was necessitated or, for example, what the debt is in respect of the Aviva. How is the FAI performing relative to the...
