Rose Conway-Walsh: However, they obviously need to be planned, targeted and all of that.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Authorised Push Payments Fraud: Discussion (Resumed) (31 May 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: It would be useful for us to know about as a committee. We want to support Mr. Kelly in work he is doing, which we see as a vital part of protecting the community. Maybe he can deal with this in answer to somebody else, but he referred to the co-chairing of a number of public-private partnerships with the BPFI. Do any of those partnerships specifically focus on authorised push payment...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Authorised Push Payments Fraud: Discussion (Resumed) (31 May 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: That relationship is extremely important. Some people do not understand if someone goes out of the EU to travel internationally and wants to use his or her bank card of whatever, he or she is supposed to notify the provider before he or she goes. That person will then get calls while abroad to ask if a transaction was made by them. We can get any number of calls in a day in respect of this...

Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Sovereign Wealth Funds: Discussion (Resumed) (31 May 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank Mr. Gjedrem. I want to set that in context with our own oil and gas exploration. I come from the community of the Corrib gas project and we have had much experience in that regard. We have followed the Norwegian model for many years now. The fund has built up in Norway. We do not have such a fund. I wish to ask about scale and the correct response to managing a surplus. Is...

Report on the Good Friday Agreement: Motion (1 Jun 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I acknowledge the work of the Chair of the Joint Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement, Deputy O’Dowd, and Deputy Brendan Smith who is also present. It was a hugely interesting piece of work for us to do as a committee.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Business Opportunities and Differences: Engagement with Irish SME Association (1 Jun 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: Reference was made to IBEC's For Peace + Prosperity campaign. It is a really visual campaign. I take on board what Mr. McDonnell has said and I have gone through ISME's pre-budget submission. His point about the over-the-horizon risks is important but I would also point to the over-the-horizon opportunities. With every risk, there is an opportunity. There certainly is an opportunity to...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Business Opportunities and Differences: Engagement with Irish SME Association (1 Jun 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I am trying to break the issues down and put them in context. I am thinking of a small or medium business that cannot get the tradespeople and other people it needs to maximise its profitability. It would be helpful if it were able to fish from an all-island pool of apprentices and other workers. I am concerned about an imbalance in this regard. In the case of care homes, say, there is a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Business Opportunities and Differences: Engagement with Irish SME Association (1 Jun 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I completely agree with Mr. McDonnell on the direction we need to go. It is why I would like to see action on apprenticeships. I take the point from ISME's pre-budget submission on what needs to be done to incentivise employers and looking at how we can increase the numbers and target things properly. I am just arguing for an all-island approach in order to have a seamless system for...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Business Opportunities and Differences: Engagement with Irish SME Association (1 Jun 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: It certainly would. I will finish on the EU competitiveness index, which has pointed out that the west and the north west are in the bottom 7% of all EU regions. That has to be faced up to. We really have to think differently and we have to think outside the box. We cannot continue doing the same thing we have been doing, looking at less than 7%, underneath Romania and some of the...
