- Other Questions: Bord na gCon Administration (18 Dec 2014)
Tom Hayes: If I go to a greyhound track, the first person I meet will tell me one thing about it, while someone else further on will tell me the opposite and not to listen to others. That is the view on the street, but the facts are totally different. A full assessment of the greyhound board was carried out by Indecon which contained 27 recommendations, a large number of which related to testing and...

- Committee on Transport and Communications: Select Sub-Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Aviation Agreements: Motion (21 Jan 2015)
Tom Hayes: In the context of this motion, can two countries bilaterally make an agreement in regard to flights? What seems to be suggested by this is that the EU can dictate connectivity between member states. If countries can make bilateral agreements, how is this vital? It is a point of information.

The Senator highlighted the case of a particular individual, a young farmer. One must bear in mind at the outset, before I get into the exact detail, that never before in the history of the State have so many concessions for young farmers been introduced in a budget.
- Seanad: Commencement Matters: Bovine Disease Controls (22 Jan 2015)
Tom Hayes: In fact, only last week I addressed a meeting in Tipperary where the hall was packed. It was addressed by persons who have considerable ambition for the agricultural sector, and one of the issues they spoke about was how to produce food - meat, such as beef, or milk - not only in a cost-effective manner but in such a way that one could sell it on to the world market, where there is demand,...
- Seanad: Commencement Matters: Bovine Disease Controls (22 Jan 2015)
Tom Hayes: Irrespective of whoever prepared the script, I know something of the matter. As someone who inherited a farm myself, I know that the first thing one must do is to transfer the herd number. It would be grossly unfair to select one person and to say that because a farm was transferred the family should be relieved of their responsibilities and duties. The responsibility lies with the herd...
- Seanad: Commencement Matters: Bovine Disease Controls (22 Jan 2015)
