Paul McAuliffe: Yes.

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I agree. Sorry. When you indicated, I thought you were going to come in on this.

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: The Minister of State has addressed amendments Nos. 105, 106 and 111, but Deputy Matthews also spoke on amendment No. 107.

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Does the Minister wish to speak to amendment No. 109?

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I got a sneak preview of the answer. For the record, we will go over it again. For all the good reasons we have just discussed, this would facilitate security infrastructure at airports. The benefit of having this in the legislation as opposed to regulations is that it gives greater certainty. Is there a reason the Minister of State would not include it in the primary legislation?

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I accept that. I sought clarification on exempted developments that I believe will be covered by regulations and the Minister of State gave a commitment that he would provide a draft version of those in advance of the Bill moving to the Seanad. I ask that the subject matter of this amendment be also included in that.

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: We are-----

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Two commitments in the programme for Government were welcome, those being, addressing the issue of apartment defects and reviewing the Multi-Unit Developments Act, or MUD Act, which governs management companies, sinking funds and management fees. In the coming months, we will see owners’ management companies, OMCs, receiving millions, if not billions, of euro in Government support....

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: It lies with the Minister for Justice, Deputy McEntee.

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Yes, but not the review of the MUD Act. This is not a conversation, though, and I do not want the Ceann Comhairle to have to tell me that.

Child and Youth Mental Health: Statements (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I acknowledge the motivation of Deputy Ward in bringing forward the Bill earlier in the week. I commend the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, on making this time available to discuss this issue. At the core of both of those things is a recognition that we know the people coming to our clinics need a better service. That is where we have to start. If we get into the game of second-guessing...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: The benefit of being in the committee room is we cannot hear the bells going off that are outside. The housing committee has had a series of votes. I apologise if I cover areas that have been covered, although I heard earlier some of the contributions on yesterday's controversy around placing people in accommodation where documents had been - maybe there is no better word than -...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Exactly, yes. It was reported, obviously. I asked Mr. Gloster to respond to the Ballymun - A Brighter Future report. As Ms Duggan will be aware, it was commissioned by Dublin City Council and it sought to address the issue of the challenge of the lack of social workers within the north city area. One of the recommendations of the report was that a number of senior social workers would...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Maybe, to take some of that discussion offline, Ms Mannion might not be aware that the Taoiseach has appointed Mr. John Costello as the co-ordinator for the implementation board for Ballymun to respond to that report with the expectation that senior decision-makers in each of the organisations would come together to examine the actions needed. I ask Tusla to give a commitment that it will...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Excellent. That is fantastic. It is really good news. As I said to the Taoiseach, I could make the same arguments about lots of different areas in my constituency. Local community safety partnerships would be a key way of doing that.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I believe Ballymun has been added to that list.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I welcome that with the caveat that there has to be a continued engagement over decades because when area-based partnerships were set up as the local development companies, as they were in the 1990s, it was for this very reason to bring together the ETBs, the HSE and so on. What happened was the rank of official, particularly within the HSE, reduced over time. Fewer people who were able to...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2022 - Tusla-Child and Family Agency (29 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: The other issue identified in the report, which has an application across all of the areas Tusla works, is the idea that while social workers are key to interventions, their work could also be augmented or supplemented by, for example, youth workers or family support workers.
