Seanad: British Government Legacy Proposals: Motion (13 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: I, too, welcome the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Deputy Coveney, to the House and acknowledge the phenomenal work that he is doing on behalf of this country, not just on this hugely important issue but on Brexit. We have all seen over the last few days and weeks the Brexit situation and the difficult challenges faced by the Minister. Brexit and legacy proposals are interwoven because we...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Shannon Group: Chairperson Designate (7 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: I thank the Chairman for the opportunity to come in and have a word. First of all, I congratulate Mr. Ó Céidigh.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Shannon Group: Chairperson Designate (7 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: He is an inspired choice for this role. He will embrace it and he will love it. As we all know from our time working with him, he is a man who wants results and he does not hang around unless he gets them. There are huge expectations on him and I know he is well capable of delivering on them. I will begin with a quick question. Is Mr. Ó Céidigh disappointed we do not have a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Shannon Group: Chairperson Designate (7 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: Mr. Ó Céidigh thinks it is going to take us a bit of time to mend that, given we did not co-ordinate with Europe and operate a similar strategy to the one other European countries did.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Shannon Group: Chairperson Designate (7 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: Okay. I like Mr. Ó Céidigh's presentation of this, namely, that there is no point in us competing with Dublin or Cork and we must work with them. We must have, as he said, our primary and then our secondary targets. That is all very well but what does he want to see in an aviation plan that will assist Shannon in the first instance, but also all three airports, to recover? What...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Shannon Group: Chairperson Designate (7 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: We have been talking about passengers and they are the key, and what this is all about. The other side of it is that Mr. Ó Céidigh is going to be chair of the Shannon company and there is huge potential for an aviation school perhaps, and pilot training facilities. There is a lot of land in Shannon and a lot of capabilities. Consider what has happened with aircraft leasing and...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (19 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: I thank the Deputy Leader for outlining the proposed Order of Business. On behalf of the Fine Gael group in this House, I join the Cathaoirleach in extending our sympathies to the family of Sir David Amess. As a new member of the British-Irish Parliamentary Assembly, of which Sir David was also a member, it is a sad day for me. Many of our colleagues in this House met him and worked with...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (19 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: That is not acceptable.

Seanad: Sláintecare Implementation: Statements (19 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: I welcome the Minister, Deputy Donnelly, to the House. He is always very welcome here. I know he has had a long day and a busy few days. We had a very good engagement on the future of Sláintecare at the Joint Committee on Health. I have no doubt about the commitment of the Minister, the Secretary General of his Department and the HSE to Sláintecare. We need to be realistic to...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (20 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: Hear, hear.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (20 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: I too support colleagues in calling for a debate on antisocial behaviour. Senator Ward articulated very well a modern problem in respect of antisocial behaviour. Certain people in our community are suffering and we need to address that. We also need to address what is going on in our streets not only in the city of Dublin, but also in other towns where wanton thuggery is taking place. We...

BreastCheck Screening Programme and Improving Outcomes for Breast Cancer: Discussion
(19 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: I welcome our guests and acknowledge the great work they do at all times and particularly in the recent difficult period. I thank Professor Ó Laoide for the comprehensive overview he gave in his opening statement. I would like to drill down into some statistics, which I hope the witnesses can provide. How many people went through the screening service in 2019, before the pandemic, and...
