Louise O'Reilly: I would have to agree with Mr. Boland, based on the anecdotal evidence, but we will wait for the NCID report. I have a few seconds left.

Louise O'Reilly: Mr. Boland mentioned having one go at mediation. I am a massive fan of mediation. It works when it works. One cannot just say that it will only work today but will not work tomorrow. I am thinking about amendments that could be made to make this legislation more effective. I would be interested in hearing Ms Murdock's views on mediation. When mediation works, it can work really well....

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Consumer Rights Bill 2022: Committee Stage (1 Jun 2022)

Louise O'Reilly: On amendments Nos. 147 and 148, why is the provision of a financial service excluded? Am I missing something, or is it included somewhere else? I know the amendments are technical ones, so I do not want to labour the point. I am just asking why the provision of a financial service is excluded.

They have consistently put forward solutions that will work and have been consistently constructive in the face of a Government that is becoming more out of touch with every day that passes. It is some years now since Frances O’Grady, the outgoing head of the British Trades Union Congress, TUC,...

Annual Transition Statement: Statements (15 Jun 2022)

Louise O'Reilly: We have seen over the past number of decades, and especially in the recent past, the need for progressive climate action. We hear it from our children and, for those of us lucky enough to have them, from our grandchildren. Thankfully, the debate has largely shifted from one about personal responsibility to a whole-of-system approach. The public at large are doing all that they can and more...
