Leaders' Questions (5 Oct 2016)

Clare Daly: The problem with the Taoiseach's response is that he tells us that whistleblowers should not be treated poorly and that he respects and defends that. However, our interpretations of what constitutes respect and defence must be different because the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality has been presented with evidence over a period of two and half years which shows that has not...

Leaders' Questions (5 Oct 2016)

Clare Daly: If the Taoiseach means what he says and if he really does respect and defend whistleblowers, then he would be answering very differently and he would actually be doing something rather than just talking about it.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Estimates for Public Services 2016: Minister for Justice and Equality (5 Oct 2016)

Clare Daly: We are talking about performance measures and whether money is being well spent. We cannot measure anything when the data are flawed. It is not good enough to say that the Central Statistics Office, CSO, says things are improving and that is grand.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: UN Summit on Refugees and Migrants: Discussion (5 Oct 2016)

Clare Daly: I found the introduction a little demoralising in some ways. It summed up for me the point made by Deputy O'Brien earlier to the effect that we get nice statements and lofty aspirations but the reality on the ground is rather different.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: UN Summit on Refugees and Migrants: Discussion (5 Oct 2016)

Clare Daly: I wish to correct the record on one point. People can be doing things but getting nowhere and that is the point I am making. I am not saying that people are doing nothing but I am saying that the Irish presence in the camps is not visible enough, in Greece or in Lebanon. I do not say there is no one there but they are not advertising Ireland. I am not saying, either, that no work was...

Clare Daly: If one takes the Red Cross, well over 800 people made offers but now we have 160, which shows there is a roadblock. Many people made offers for unaccompanied minors. It is not just that there are not enough foster carers. There have been no advertisements to seek them. I have no hesitation in saying the relocation and facilities provided for the small number who got here under the...

Other Questions: Pensions Reform (6 Oct 2016)

Clare Daly: 9. To ask the Minister for Social Protection his views in relation to whether he is concerned, particularly with the quickening demise of occupational pension schemes, that inadequate governance can lead to employers unilaterally closing down pension schemes without consulting and negotiating with all those who are affected by these actions, not just trade unions but those who may appear not...
