Workers' Rights: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (1 Jun 2016)

Clare Daly: As someone who has been a shop steward all my working life and who continues to take up workers' cases, I had to check the calendar to make sure it was not April Fools' Day when I saw this motion.

In the bad times there is actually an even greater need for a labour party to do that-----

Clare Daly: Does the Labour Party think that when Jim Larkin arrived in Dublin he turned around and said, "Do you know what, lads, I'll come back in a few years because the economic climate isn't quite right at the moment."? Of course he did not. He fought for workers because workers' rights were not granted by any noble being. Workers' rights were fought for in this State. In that respect, I salute...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Hare Coursing Regulation (8 Jun 2016)

Clare Daly: This is another sort of Irish solution to an Irish problem, because the rules belie a reality that is very different. We have an incredible contradiction where, on the one hand, hares are protected under the Wildlife Act but, on the other, under the Animal Health and Welfare Act all animals are protected with the exception of hares to be coursed. This resulted, in 2015, in a situation where...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Hare Coursing Regulation (8 Jun 2016)

It shows agitated hares running up and down within the confines of a coursing field while coursing members shout and scream at them in that...
