Estimates for Public Services 2023: Programme for Government (5 Dec 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: The Minister, Deputy Donohoe, was told that the health budget was not credible by the Secretary General of the Department of Health before budget day. He said that introducing a budget on that basis was not being honest and is a clear breach of public financial procedures. That is from the former senior civil servant in the Department of public expenditure, and this comes on the back of the...

Renters: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (5 Dec 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I am sorry that the Minister, Deputy O'Brien, has left the Chamber because he referred to the eviction bans and we are blue in the face from asking for a no-fault eviction ban. The reason we are doing so came to the fore for me last week when a mother of two young children rang me. The eldest child was four and she said that if tears could build a house she would have a house without a...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committees (6 Dec 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: The Taoiseach continues to quote figures and defend Fine Gael's record on housing, but Fine Gael's record on housing in Mayo is clear. We went from one person homeless in 2014 to 87 people homeless today and that does not nearly tell the picture of all those who do not have a home or who are in completely unsuitable accommodation. That is the record in Mayo. People are waiting months in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: Based on what we see internationally and here, is it likely to be as a result of honest companies operating here? Is it due to a lack of powers or resources for the CCPC or the fact it is not a priority for the Government? I am trying to get a picture of the landscape.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: Yes, and Mr. McHugh's opening statement was very informative in terms of what we need to discuss here. He mentioned the case unfolding in Austria that could involve €61 billion in public money, where construction companies could face hundreds of millions of euro in fines as a result. We also saw the case in Spain last year. Are any of the companies involved in the Austrian...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I understand that. As things are now, even as a preliminary consideration, it is public knowledge which companies have been involved in bid rigging and were fined and prosecuted in other countries. Does this automatically raise an alert in the CCPC or in the Government to give extra scrutiny to those companies that have already been prosecuted in other countries? How does the commission...
