- Accommodation for International Protection Applicants: Motion [Private Members] (21 Mar 2024)
John Brady: I thank the Social Democrats for bringing the motion before us. It once again places the spotlight on the chaos, hypocrisy and utter failure of the Government to address the crippling housing crisis within the State. The Government's approach clearly is not working. It exposes a chaotic approach to immigration that has failed communities and those coming to these shores seeking...
- Accommodation for International Protection Applicants: Motion [Private Members] (21 Mar 2024)
John Brady: In fairness, it is not constructive. It is a cheap attempt.
- Accommodation for International Protection Applicants: Motion [Private Members] (21 Mar 2024)
John Brady: Well, the Deputy is not.
- Accommodation for International Protection Applicants: Motion [Private Members] (21 Mar 2024)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023: Discussion (20 Mar 2024)
John Brady: I thank the committee for facilitating this scrutiny of what is really important legislation. With more than 30,000 killed, the people of Gaza are enduring what the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, described as horrifying levels of hunger and suffering. Children are literally dying of starvation. This is a continuation of a sustained Israeli strategy designed to annex Palestinian...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023: Discussion (20 Mar 2024)
John Brady: I have two points to make. The first is on the fear the Government might drag its feet on the progression of this legislation. Unfortunately, we have witnessed attempts to stall, stymie and block this Bill. We saw it first with the nine-month delaying amendment the Government put on it, which has passed. We have seen attempt after attempt to deny this committee its right to waive...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023: Discussion (20 Mar 2024)
John Brady: I thank the Deputy. He touched on the annexation motion, which was historic in its own right when it was passed overwhelmingly by the Dáil in 2020. It stated quite clearly that what Israel is doing by grabbing Palestinian land is absolutely illegal. There have to be repercussions from such a designation, whereby ours was the first European country to unilaterally state that Israel is...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023: Discussion (20 Mar 2024)
John Brady: Senator Black is absolutely right about that. That again highlights the inconsistencies in the Government's approach. When the Attorney General speaks, he speaks to outline the Government's position and policy. Again, it exposes the double standards there. Providing assistance to the settlements and their viability is contrary to international law. Let us consider the portfolio of...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023: Discussion (20 Mar 2024)
John Brady: My position and the position of my party is very clear in terms of the occupied territories Bill. I do not think the legal advice stands up. It is just another ongoing excuse not to take any tangible, meaningful action against the illegal actions of Israel. European limitations around trade, competency rules and so forth are cited but I do not think it stands up. That argument has been...
