Aidan Davitt: I appreciate that. I think the further it is changed up along the line, the fewer companies we will have looking to come here. This is the reality of it, contrary to what others might think.

Aidan Davitt: I raise a parochial or county matter about an organisation that has come in for a lot of heat over the past few weeks. I am curious because the GAA gets quite a lot of funding from the Government. It came up in general conversation with some members recently in the Mullingar area how Cusack Park is constantly overlooked as a venue, particularly for certain Leinster games. We had teams from...

Aidan Davitt: I would like to request a debate in this Chamber on the future of sustainable transport in Ireland. As bus gates are introduced along Dublin's quays, more streets become pedestrianised and more people live further away from their work, consciousness of cost arises. We need to imagine a transport system that is fit for all. We know Ireland is ranked as one of the highest EU emitters per...

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (26 Jun 2024)
Aidan Davitt: Today, I request the Leader ask the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Deputy Peter Burke, to come to the House to discuss the cost of doing business in Ireland at present, particularly for small business owners. We have discussed this matter before and I know different grants and rebates have been of help. So much change happened at once with the increase in the cost of wages,...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Seller’s Legal Pack for Property Buyers Bill 2021: Discussion (2 Jul 2024)
Aidan Davitt: I welcome everybody to the meeting. It has been informative. I would be relatively aware of the Bill that has been brought forward by IPAV. I am relatively aware of the situation in which Mr. Garrett and Ms McKiernan are. I read a little ditty in yesterday's Irish Independent that the Law Society of Ireland, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, RICS, and whoever else seemed to...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Seller’s Legal Pack for Property Buyers Bill 2021: Discussion (2 Jul 2024)
Aidan Davitt: If something is an issue, it is an issue regardless of whether this Bill comes into force. Mr. Garrett is throwing out red herrings, from what I can see. I am not trying to be combative but he seems to be looking for other problems in an effort to muddy the waters relating to the Bill. I do not get it. The issue he referred to is there and will continue to be there until is fixed. If he...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Seller’s Legal Pack for Property Buyers Bill 2021: Discussion (2 Jul 2024)
Aidan Davitt: Mr. Garrett is pointing to an existing problem and trying to tie it to this Bill. The problem he spoke about is there and will still be there even if the Bill is enacted. The same applies to three or four other problems he mentioned. Whatever this Bill does, it will not make the job of solicitors any longer or more intense, apart from having to do the work upfront. If there are provisions...
