- Seanad: Order of Business (21 Jun 2017)
Terry Leyden: The point is that the Minister was present when the decision was made to appoint Máire Whelan as a judge of the Court of Appeal, which she had not even applied for, but he did not know it was happening. Then the Minister, Deputy Ross, gets a decision to open Stepaside Garda station. Garda stations in Ballintubber, Ballyforan, Ballyfarnon, Knockcroghery, Shannonbridge and Tarmonbarry...

- Seanad: Order of Business (21 Jun 2017)
Terry Leyden: I am calling on the Minister to demand that this report be presented to the Oireachtas and to identify Tarmonbarry as a strategic and crucial location. I further demand that he follow in the fine example of representational politics set by the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Ross, a man who has led the way against stroke politics. Let us follow him and get something done...

- Seanad: Petroleum and Other Minerals Development (Prohibition of Onshore Hydraulic Fracturing) Bill 2016: Second Stage (21 Jun 2017)
Terry Leyden: We are delighted in the west of Ireland that there is a Minister of State in the Galway area beside us in Roscommon.Indeed, his colleague as Minister of State, Deputy Cannon, has also been appointed, as has Deputy McHugh. There is also Deputy Naughten in Roscommon who is in the Cabinet. Deputy McLoughlin and his staff have worked very diligently on this particular issue over a period and...
- Seanad: Petroleum and Other Minerals Development (Prohibition of Onshore Hydraulic Fracturing) Bill 2016: Second Stage (21 Jun 2017)
Terry Leyden: I have tried my best but it is frustrating. That is why I am delighted for Deputy McLoughlin. He felt that it was not moving fast enough but nevertheless, to bring it through the Dáil and through the Seanad as a backbencher without the backing of the Government it is an achievement. If the Government did not want this Bill, the Department would frustrate this as far as it could and it...

While the White Paper is welcome, the outcome of the negotiations on Brexit will affect the outcome of the White Paper because much of the latter will depend on what happens on Brexit. The negotiations have started well, however. A delegation from the joint...

- Seanad: Inland Fisheries (Amendment) Bill 2017: Committee and Remaining Stages (27 Jun 2017)
Terry Leyden: I again welcome the Minister of State to the House but it would be appropriate if the Minister, Deputy Denis Naughten, came into the House to deal with the Bill because people locally are amazed that he, as Minister, would discriminate against the constituency of Roscommon-east Galway by imposing permits to fish for pike or coarse fish in the Midlands Fisheries Group of controlled waters.The...

Terry Leyden: Do the fines detailed in the tables in this section apply to the rivers to which I referred, namely, the River Suck, the River Inny, the River Brosna, the Little Brosna River and the Camlin River? Will this list mean bailiffs will stop children fishing on these rivers if they do not have a licence? On my farm, we have Blacks Lake and the Derryhippo River. No one belonging to me can fish in...
