Seanad: Order of Business (22 Oct 2008)

Mark Daly: There should be equality for Cork Airport as well, Senator Buttimer, and for all airports on the west coast.

Mark Daly: ...I call on the Leader to respond to the Order of Business, I welcome students from St. Brogan’s College in Bandon who are guests of Senator Tim Lombard today and have come all the way from west Cork. They are most welcome. It is the unwritten policy of Seanad Éireann that visiting schools do not have any homework for the remainder of the week. It is a pity they did not come...

Mark Daly: ...country and in my county, Kerry. The director of the national ambulance service, Mr. Robert Morton, has referred to strategic deployment of ambulances throughout the State. When he visited west Cork, Mr. Morton addressed a meeting and stated that ambulance services would be redeployed and would be repositioned in some areas and withdrawn from others. When it was pointed out to him that...

Moreover, attempts are under way at present, in which Senator Ó Murchú has been involved for many years, regarding the repatriation of the remains of Thomas Kent from Cork Prison.

Mark Daly: ...meetings to go to, but they will be coming back as well. In alphabetical order by county, as Béarla, unfortunately - if we did it in Irish it would be a different running order - we have County Cork first. The county is fortunate to have great neighbours. Maybe County Kerry is not so fortunate to have great neighbours. I call Councillor Gearóid Murphy.

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Marine Rescue Station (9 Jun 2015)

Mark Daly: ...in the permanent Government advocating its closure. The issue I raise today concerns the appointment of a resident engineer to the centre. I understand the position was advertised and located in Cork. Malin and Dublin have resident engineers but even though Valentia is busier than those centres its engineer will be located 200 km away from it. The engineer will be responsible for...

Seanad: Planning and Development (Built Heritage Protection) Bill 2022: Second Stage (16 Jun 2022)

We heard they had won that competition and we are delighted for them. Would the...

Seanad: Gnó an tSeanaid - Business of Seanad (5 May 2022)

Mark Daly: Before I call on the Leader to outline the Order on Business, it is appropriate to remember in the context of the Decade of Centenaries the events in Cork of just over 100 years ago. The families who lost their loved ones felt their loss then as their descendents do now. In their memory I read out the names of those killed: Michael O'Neill, Thomas Hornibrook, Samuel Hornibrook, Herbert...

Seanad: Tourism Industry: Statements (25 Mar 2009)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Passport Service: Senator Robbie Gallagher (9 Feb 2017)

Mark Daly: I support Senator Gallagher and the Chairman on this concept. It is a case well made. Brexit obviously makes it more relevant. We have a passport office down in Cork and obviously in Dublin. However, there is nothing to facilitate anybody north of Galway and Dublin to get a passport appointment. If one is coming from Donegal to Dublin, it is a long way to go, whereas people from Kerry,...
