- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (6 Nov 2019)
Ruth Coppinger: Yesterday saw the end of a court process and the sentencing of two teenage boys for the horrific murder of a young girl in the prime of her life. It was probably the most extreme example of sexual assault and misogyny the country has seen. We send solidarity to her family. Last month, the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre stated there was a public health epidemic of sexual violence. This time...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (6 Nov 2019)
Ruth Coppinger: Perhaps the Deputy thinks that is fine, but most of us do not. As a result of #MeToo and more disclosure, the rape crisis centres are reporting a massive increase in calls. The increase in funding provided by the Government goes nowhere near to meeting the demand. Why are groups not going into schools to educate young people about the signs of abusive relationships? Instead we have a...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (6 Nov 2019)

Ruth Coppinger: The Taoiseach can sign up to conventions and put laws on the Statute Book. These are important and relatively easy things to do but they need to be backed up by change. We can see from reading the court reports that the definition of consent, which I argued for when I spoke at the committee, does not seem to be having one jot of an impact. I welcome the No Excuses campaign. The...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (6 Nov 2019)
Ruth Coppinger: What the Government is doing in this regard is completely insufficient. International protests are taking place on 25 November, the international day for the elimination of violence against women. This should signal to the trade union movement, community organisations and women's organisations that they should mobilise for massive protest on that day worldwide.

- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (6 Nov 2019)
Ruth Coppinger: A problem constantly arises when houses and apartments are thrown up and people must chase after schools many years later. Is the Government considering any laws to prevent a recurrence of this problem? The Taoiseach is familiar with Pelletstown Educate Together national school in the Ashtown-Rathborne area, which is awaiting a new school but has now been told that it will be delayed. The...
