Leaders' Questions (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: The Minister, Deputy Donohoe, made the point this morning that this is a landmark decision. It certainly is that. It marks a new low in the behaviour of this Government in terms of its arrogance, undemocratic manoeuvring and contempt for this House that it would ram through in a matter of days strategic decisions about the future of an almost 80 year old company that has employed tens of...

Leaders' Questions (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: Yesterday, the Taoiseach told Deputy Adams he could not answer the questions. I assume the reason he has not done it this time is that he could not be bothered to give us the respect of answering. The Taoiseach has not addressed a single issue we raised. Many of the positives he outlined about the airline are already in train and are irrelevant to whether or not IAG takes over. The...

Leaders' Questions (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: Where is the money going in to secure their future now? It is a disgrace.

Aer Lingus Share Disposal: Motion (Resumed) (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: There is no doubt in my mind that the process under way over the past several months is nothing more than a charade designed to give the illusion that the Government was debating issues and wrestling concessions from IAG, when it had in fact already decided the outcome. That is not surprising from a Fine Gael point of view. After all, it was the Minister for Finance, Deputy Noonan, who...

Other Questions: Surgical Symphysiotomy Payment Scheme (28 May 2015)

Clare Daly: I understand the UN Human Rights Committee will express its disagreement with the Minister at its next hearing. It is not acceptable that elderly women who were butchered in their youth, who lost connections with their children and relationships with their husbands, and who continue to live in pain are being forced to participate in this scheme. As the Minister pointed out, the overwhelming...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Naval Service Operations (9 Jun 2015)

Clare Daly: 109. To ask the Minister for Defence his views regarding whether it is appropriate for the LE Eithne to take part in Operation Triton in view of the fact that it is primarily an exercise in border control rather than in humanitarian rescue; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21536/15]

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Naval Service Operations (9 Jun 2015)

Clare Daly: This question is similar to that posed by Deputy Mac Lochlainn. While I agree with the Minister that there are multiple reasons for the large number of refugees, the predominant cause is Western-instigated wars and exploitation in countries such as Libya, Syria and Eritrea. While I am glad that the LE Eithneand the Naval Service have rescued people in the Mediterranean, we need to dig...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Naval Service Operations (9 Jun 2015)

Clare Daly: I am very glad that the Minister has stated clearly that our naval forces are not involved in Operation Triton. The reality is that they are operating side by side with that exercise, which is run under Frontex and the EU border control agency. We must consider that the humanitarian mission run by the Italians since 2013 under Operation Mare Nostrum, which they were pressurised by the EU to...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Naval Service Operations (9 Jun 2015)

Clare Daly: We have one of the worst records in Europe for accommodating refugees. I would have no problem whatsoever with the resettlement of 1,200 people, or many more, in Ireland. They would not have to be transported by the LE Eithne. Moving them to a direct provision centre in Italy or Malta is not the solution. Ireland has a part to play in that resettlement programme, way beyond what we have...
