- Other Questions: Waste Disposal (7 Feb 2018)
John Curran: The Minister is aware that last year the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment, Deputy Denis Naughten, introduced a new pricing and charging regime for waste collection. Effectively, it was to phase out flat-rate charges and encourage greater recycling. I understand that the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission has since conducted a study on the waste...
- Other Questions: Waste Disposal (7 Feb 2018)
John Curran: I do not mean to be disrespectful to the Minister by saying she did not tell me anything I really did not know. It is like a history lesson. I am well aware that the request came in September. In a previous reply from the Minister, Deputy Naughten, he indicated that the report from the commission would be available in early 2018. This does very little to alleviate concerns that people...

- Topical Issue Debate: Garda Deployment (8 Feb 2018)
John Curran: I will try to stick strictly to the point. In the Minister of State's answer to this House, he said that during 2017 the number of gardaí increased to 13,551, an increase of over 600. Can he explain to us why, if we have 600 extra gardaí in the country, there is a decline in the number of gardaí in Dublin? Why are we not seeing the increases that are happening in other parts...
