Civil Debt (Procedures) Bill 2015: Second Stage (3 Jul 2015)

Clare Daly: The heralding of the Bill as a planned progressive step to stop people being imprisoned for non-payment of debt is a sleight of hand. As other Deputies have pointed out, the reason we are here today, on a non-sitting day, is that the Government has lost the battle to convince Irish citizens they should pay water charges and buy in to the Irish Water project. What we have seen in the past...

Subsequent to the question being tabled some of the people who made complaints have begun to get replies and to say what they received is beyond their worst expectations is probably an understatement.

Other Questions: Garda Oversight (7 Jul 2015)

Clare Daly: The Minister should be in a position to do so. I would like her to re-examine the figures and statistics she gave. It is precisely out of respect for the complainants that I raise these queries. People such as the family of John Kelly are outside in the lashing of rain because their brother's death has never been explained. We put out a call last time we had Question Time to ask many of...

Urban Regeneration and Housing Bill 2015: Report Stage (7 Jul 2015)

Clare Daly: I also believe it is appropriate and welcome that Deputy Wallace mentioned the issue of NAMA. It is as if we are in the middle of a production of "Hamlet" when the boys are outside talking about their being something very rotten in the state of Denmark.
