Danny Healy-Rae: People do not consider getting €350 or the like worth their while in light of all the other obligations that go along with renting a house. If we want to be serious about the issue Mr. Ó hÉallaithe raised and entice people to rent houses to locals, we have to provide the same enticements that are provided to others in respect of people coming from another country. I do...

Disability Justice: Motion [Private Members] (17 Apr 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank People Before Profit for bringing forward this worthy motion. It is clear that people with disabilities are not being funded properly. I think of the €29 million that was wasted on the referendums and what it would do for people with disabilities. All of us like to have a place to go and something to do to make us relevant. I ask that we ensure that young people who...

To mention a few places, we have been calling for...

Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings System Bill 2024: Second Stage (Resumed) (17 Apr 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to talk on this very serious matter. I am an employer, as was my father going back to 1955 and my son now operates the business. That is almost 70 years. Friday evening, pay day, comes very quickly for businesses. This could be the best country in the world if it was managed properly. TDs on this side of the House are saying the country is awash with...

Support for Carers: Motion [Private Members] (24 Apr 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Regional Group for bringing this worthy motion before us today. I will be supporting it 100%. There have been many promises in the past in regard to helping carers but they have fallen on deaf ears, so far. The nub of the problem is that means testing for carer's allowance will have to be abolished - full stop, no ifs or buts about it. There are other groups that should not be...

Weather-Related Supports for Farmers: Statements (Resumed) (24 Apr 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I have been a farmer all my life and I understand very well what farmers are going through and have gone through since 16 June last, since it started raining first. This €100 per hectare is €40 per acre for grain. God almighty, €40 an acre would not bring home one bag of messages. Farmers are being blamed for everything. Farmers are providing food, and if we do not...

Gambling Regulation Bill 2022: Report Stage (24 Apr 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: Everyone around the country is concerned about betting and gambling, especially online gambling. Youngsters are betting online and there has to be some curbing of that.

There is no call for tampering with the fundraising of clubs, charities, sports clubs,...
