Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Waterways Ireland: Discussion. (9 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: -----the pressure that has come on. He says it is a while off going to the Department. How long is "a while off"? Are we talking about going into the next year or about a number of weeks or months?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Waterways Ireland: Discussion. (9 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: Returning to that, I live in an area which has a lot of boats. The Shannon flows through it. There is a general consensus among people in the tourism sector, restaurateurs and people in the bars, even in the smallest villages along the area, that there is not the number of people using the boats as in the past and that the number of people is well down and that certainly in the last decade,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Waterways Ireland: Discussion. (9 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: On the canals and people who live on them, I noted Mr. Rowe’s comment that he welcomes people coming to live on the canals and for people to live on boats. Again, the experience of people who have done or are doing that is that they do not feel very welcome.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Waterways Ireland: Discussion. (9 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: If Mr. Rowe is saying that Waterways Ireland welcomes all users, and there is an investment programme there to make services available, how appropriate is it to put charges in place before those services are available?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Waterways Ireland: Discussion. (9 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: On the number living on boats on the canals, particularly those in the city centre or near it, again, I expect the tragedy of last weekend is in almost everyone’s mind. What is Waterways Ireland’s position in relation to number of those boats that are available and expanding or growing that or curtailing it?

Martin Kenny: To double it by when?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Waterways Ireland: Discussion. (9 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: I think we were clear that the by-laws will not go to the Department for some time. We are coming into holiday season. It is likely that we will be back sitting before it happens. It will more than likely be the middle of September by what I hear, because of the amount of work that is to be done. It would be appropriate before it went to the Department, if the committee was in agreement,...

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (10 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: I raise with the Taoiseach the issue of Ballyshannon Community Hospital. After a long refurbishment project and the construction of a large extension, the hospital has reopened on the site of the old Sheil hospital in Ballyshannon. I attended the reopening with the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, and many other dignitaries. Everyone was there and everyone was delighted to see this new...

Post-European Council Meeting: Statements (10 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: It is welcome in recent days that the election in Britain has brought a new Prime Minister. Hopefully we will see better relations between the European Union and Britain in the post-Brexit era. Brexit has had such an impact on this island, particularly the North. I represent a Border constituency, and we see the full impact Brexit and the divisive Tory Government have had. We look forward...

Agriculture Appeals (Amendment) Bill 2024: Second Stage (11 Jul 2024)

Martin Kenny: This legislation is obviously a welcome advance. Farming has become a part-time occupation for many. Farmers need to have a job along with it in order to have an income. Central to that is the architecture we have around payments, assistance and having schemes in place to assist farmers. Very often, because of weather and the nature and topography of the land that people are trying to...
