Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: I welcome the witnesses. It has been said of the water quality monitoring report the EPA has done that the agency concludes that the average nitrates concentration has increased since 2012-13. Claims have been made that this is not supported by any data. How has the EPA reached its conclusion if the data do not exist? Dr. Cotter spoke about trends and so on but data should be used here...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: Has the agency provided statistical evidence to demonstrate the trends are increasing?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: To come back to what other members have said, the EPA excludes all references to other sources of nutrients in our water. Senator Paul Daly has just given examples. The data should include potentially significant other sources. The Chairman mentioned what was going into the River Suir. Golden is a village in my area - it also in the Chairman's area - that is not referenced in any of the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: Our weather patterns have changed very significantly since 2012 and 2013. The Cathaoirleach has given our witnesses an example in Thurles and I have given one in Golden, which are 12 miles apart, where torrential rains are causing problems for the River Suir. The statistics in 2012 and 2013 would be completely different from what they are now. How is that calibrated with the EPA?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: The EPA report will form the basis for the European Commission if it decides to reduce the stocking rates on farms. If the contents of the red map are submitted, there is a big likelihood the stock rates will be reduced. All the organisations we have spoken to are critical of that said red map. They prefer the more detailed map 9. Why ignore that map when all those who know best,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: On a professional level with regard to the EPA, and without reference to the European Commission, which data, as inferred by the targeted measures map and the red map, are, from the point of view of the EPA, more useful in identifying the problems and in determining the actions which need to be taken here?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: The IFA will be appearing before the committee later and it has estimated that the loss to the rural economy is likely to be approximately €236 million to €240 million. That will have an impact on family farms and will be much more devastating. It is imperative that we use all of the data that is available. What seems to be the problem is that the EPA's reports are ignoring...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Water Quality Monitoring Report: Discussion (19 Jul 2023)

Martin Browne: More than 30 measures have been included in the Nitrates Directive since 2018. They need to be given time to demonstrate that there are improvements and it comes back to this lag in time. In the witnesses' opinion, how much time should be given to get a correct reading over a space of time rather than the 12-month period that seems to be happening here? Would it take two or three years to...

Reversal of Planned Fuel Price Increases: Motion [Private Members] (26 Sep 2023)

Martin Browne: In order that the Minister of State will not be too upset by what he is listening to from this side of the House, I will give the Government credit for one thing. It gave payments to families. However, what it gave with one hand, it took back twofold with the other. The three parties in this malfunctioning Government have lost touch with the pressures people are under now. Things are bad...

Eviction Ban Bill 2022: Motion (27 Sep 2023)

Martin Browne: I also thank People Before Profit-Solidarity for tabling the motion. There are 17 properties to rent in County Tipperary on daft.ie. Emergency accommodation is regularly full in that county when we inquire about it. Some 68% of people in their late 20s still live at home because Ireland's housing market is in crisis. Those are just some of the figures that form the backdrop to what we are...
