Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (5 Jul 2023)

Jennifer Whitmore: I believe I am speaking for the majority of parents of secondary school children when I say we are sick and tired of forking out huge amounts of money each year for school books. We are tired of having to recycle perfectly good books and of buying electronic codes that cannot be transferred between siblings. It is hugely costly and wasteful. There are hundreds of thousands, if not...

Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Second Stage (5 Jul 2023)

Jennifer Whitmore: I welcome the debate on this long-overdue legislation which the Social Democrats will be supporting. I acknowledge the work done by abortion rights campaigners to get us to this point, particularly Together for Safety. Without their tireless campaigning for safe access zones, I believe this legislation would have fallen off this Government's agenda and would have been delayed even further...

Energy (Windfall Gains in the Energy Sector) (Temporary Solidarity Contribution) Bill 2023: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Jul 2023)

Jennifer Whitmore: Article 17 specifies what the proceeds from the temporary solidarity contribution will be used for. It does not specify any reporting mechanisms, from what I can see. It refers only to using it for final energy customers and the other provisions the Minister of State read out. My amendment relates specifically to reporting to this House on what the temporary solidarity contribution has...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: General Scheme of the Gas (Amendment) Bill 2022: Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications (4 Jul 2023)

Jennifer Whitmore: I thank Mr. Regan for the presentation. There is something I am confused about. I am probably reading it wrong. In his background section, he said that the natural gas directive prevents the Minister from assuming the role of majority shareholder in GNI and Ervia. However, it appears that this Bill will result in that outcome. Is that right? I may be reading it incorrectly.
