Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Employment Rights (15 Sep 2022)

Louise O'Reilly: That is very welcome. The Tánaiste is right; they have to be helped now. The longer-term solutions can wait. What businesses want to hear and what I want to hear from the Tánaiste is what that will look like because there is so much uncertainty. There are things far beyond the control of any person in the Chamber and we fully accept and appreciate that. Notwithstanding that, as...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Cost of Living Issues (15 Sep 2022)

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Dental Services (21 Sep 2022)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the Minister of State for attending to take this debate. This issue is not unique to anyone's constituency, but I hope to hear from the Minister of State what I can tell my constituents when they ring my office. I will provide an example and call the woman involved "Mary". That is not her real name, but I am sure she does not want her name used. Mary has multiple sclerosis and...

Road Traffic and Roads Bill 2021: Report and Final Stages (21 Sep 2022)

Louise O'Reilly: Listening to the tales of woe of people who have bought electric vehicles, bikes and cars, they seem like some very unlucky people.
