- Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Industrial Relations (28 Feb 2023)
Paul Gavan: Not at all. I again thank the Minister. I hear his engagement and I absolutely accept it. The blockage in the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform is entirely unacceptable. Of course, there is also collective Cabinet responsibility. It is up to the Cabinet to resolve this matter without further delay. The Minister acknowledged how important...
- Seanad: Remuneration Information and Pay Transparency Bill 2023: Second Stage (Resumed) (28 Feb 2023)
Paul Gavan: I welcome the Minister. On behalf of Sinn Féin I want to say that in the round we welcome this Bill. The process of applying for jobs can be a gruelling and protracted one. At the very least, those setting out on this journey deserve to be able to see in advance what pay is being offered.

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (1 Mar 2023)
Paul Gavan: I welcome the ambassadors to the Gallery. I second the proposal by my colleague, Senator Ó Donnghaile, to amend the Order of Business.

I expect everyone in this House would find it unacceptable for the Bill to be left as it currently is, which would mean a woman availing...
- Seanad: Project Ireland 2040: Statements (1 Mar 2023)
Paul Gavan: Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCathaoirleach Gníomhach. As always, the Minister is very welcome. Historically, Ireland’s stock and quality of public infrastructure has been poor by international standards. Poor quality roads, water and telecommunications infrastructure, in addition to a lack of schools and hospitals, compounded by poorly-balanced regional development, has...

- Seanad: Work Life Balance and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2022: Report Stage (1 Mar 2023)
Paul Gavan: The Minister will be aware that there is a very significant concern in respect of the domestic violence provisions in this Bill and the failure to date of the Minister to follow through with the commitment that one of his officials gave in the past week, which was to propose an amendment to do away with the provision of a reduced rate of pay for domestic violence leave. I note that there is...
