- Public Accounts Committee: Health Information and Quality Authority: Financial Statement 2016 (28 Sep 2017)
Marc MacSharry: Could Mr. Angland raise with it the potential of purchasing a premises? Servicing a loan for an appropriate building may well be substantially less than €519,000 a year.
- Public Accounts Committee: Health Information and Quality Authority: Financial Statement 2016 (28 Sep 2017)
Marc MacSharry: Mr. Angland is an expert in his own field. I am sure the OPW might be open to suggestion. It will give HIQA more money to deal with the services it provides. Does Mr. Angland believe that because HIQA is a State body, he has to answer in a particular way so as not to disappoint his line Department? He might answer that after my final question. Does HIQA have enough staff and resources to...

Marc MacSharry: I hope Mr. Quinn is not off the Secretary General's Christmas card list after that.
- Topical Issue Debate: Garda Stations (3 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: I am joined by my colleague from Sligo-Leitrim, Deputy Eamon Scanlon. Deputy Tony McLoughlin is also present, and I know this matter is very close to the heart of Deputy Martin Kenny. It concerns Sligo Garda station, a regional and divisional headquarters which houses an assistant commissioner, a chief superintendent, a superintendent, 140 gardaí and 20 civilians. For many years it...
- Topical Issue Debate: Garda Stations (3 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: As is so often the case, all people are equal but some are more equal than others. Just because Deputies McLoughlin, Scanlon, Martin Kenny and I did not stand bearing gifts, as Santa Claus Ross did outside the Step Inn at Christmas 2015, it seems the OPW is pressing ahead and is at an advanced stage of reopening the semi-derelict building in Stepaside, and this was confirmed by the acting...
- Topical Issue Debate: Garda Stations (3 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: So did we, but it seems that the priority the Government is giving to Stepaside does not equal that of Sligo. Therefore, why would I not give Stepaside as an example.
- Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: Deputy McLoughlin should tell Deputy Rock to take a leaf out of his book. The Deputy should read his email before asking a question.
- Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: Page 60 of the programme for Government speaks about improving waiting times, and along the same lines as our Leader on Leaders' Questions earlier dealing with people with disabilities and other treatments, juvenile arthritis is a major crisis in this country. It might not affect every family, but it affects members of my family and it certainly affects families in every constituency. Young...
- Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: A bit of balanced accuracy now, the same type as the Taoiseach was talking about earlier.
- Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: Ceann Comhairle, which question is he answering? Did somebody else ask that question?
- Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: So we are not answering. There are 400 children. There is no room for balanced accuracy on this one.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (5 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: It speaks for itself, but I will refine it if possible. It is not our practice to have the Minister attend, but it should be considered in light of the level of importance attaching. There is an omission. On further consideration, the assistant commissioner for Dublin, Mr. Pat Leahy, could usefully contribute to this discussion. One meeting would do it, but, if possible, we will need the...
- Public Accounts Committee: IDA - Financial Statement 2016 (5 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: I welcome the witnesses. I thank them for the presentation and for all the great work they do. The idea around the programme was that ConnectIreland was the contractee, as it were, and the IDA paid it based on its performance. How much did we pay it?
- Public Accounts Committee: IDA - Financial Statement 2016 (5 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: I apologise that I had to pop out for a short while.
- Public Accounts Committee: IDA - Financial Statement 2016 (5 Oct 2017)
Marc MacSharry: It basically goes around the world and generates leads or generates companies' interest in Ireland, and the IDA assists with that and delivers jobs as a result of their referral. Is that it?
- Public Accounts Committee: IDA - Financial Statement 2016 (5 Oct 2017)
