Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Agricultural Schemes: Discussion (9 Nov 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: We all recall this 25% figure, but everyone is asking me what that means in cow numbers. The Taoiseach has denied from day one that there is a cull of cows but there is an awful lot of ambiguity about it. I was glad Mr. Rushe said this will certainly relate to cow numbers, but his organisation's president does not seem to say that when he is appears on television. We cannot get an answer....

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to talk about a few very important issues that I can address under the Social Welfare Bill. While I welcome the extension of the fuel allowance thresholds, I asked the Minister by way of a Topical Issue matter a year or so ago about those people who are left outside the scheme and do not qualify for it because they are on welfare benefits.

Declaration of a Housing Emergency: Motion [Private Members] (22 Nov 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to speak. I thank Sinn Féin for bringing forward this very important motion. Every week, we seem to have a debate about housing.

Transport in Galway and Other Areas: Motion [Private Members] (23 Nov 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Independent Group for giving us this opportunity. Earlier, the Minister boasted that he had spent so much money on footpaths and cycleways. That is fine where they are needed around towns and villages but what good is a cycleway, walkway or footpath in a place like Gneeveguilla or Shrone where it takes half an hour to go to work or wherever else in the morning and people have...

Finance Bill 2022: Report Stage (23 Nov 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: I support this amendment, of course. We all know, as should the Minister, who deals with people as much as we do, that by increasing these taxes from next May, this will drive transport costs up. It will hurt people who are going to work in their cars and taking their children to schools. This will hurt people in rural Ireland more than in urban areas. People in rural areas need a car....
