- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Bill 2022: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (29 Jun 2022)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Bill 2022: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (29 Jun 2022)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Bill 2022: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (29 Jun 2022)
Paul Daly: They would feel aggrieved that they were innocent but this group has found them guilty. They would be slapped with a fixed penalty but they would have no recourse to appeal other than refusing to pay the penalty and going to court in the hope of proving their innocence.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Bill 2022: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (29 Jun 2022)
Paul Daly: Hypothetically speaking, if a major buyer of mushrooms accepts the ruling of this organisation and accepts a fixed penalty, that buyer is accepting there is something wrong with the buying process. In the retailer's eye this will open up the floodgates. Those selling tomatoes, apples and oranges will say that if the mushroom supplier was treated like that, they would all be in for the kill....
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Bill 2022: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (29 Jun 2022)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Calculation of Methane Emissions: Discussion (20 Jul 2022)
Paul Daly: I have some questions based on what has come before. I only find one thing more confusing than scientists talking about science and that is lawyers talking about law. In that comparative context, I am coming at this matter purely from the perspective of someone who is a farmer and who represents farmers. It is the livelihoods of farmers that we are talking about, ultimately, regardless of...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Sectoral Emissions Ceilings: Discussion (20 Jul 2022)
Paul Daly: I welcome the witnesses. I have three questions, one each for Dr. Rogelj and Professor Thorne and one general question. I am aware that Dr. Rogelj contributed to a session of Climate Change Advisory Council technical budgets committee. A couple of things jumped out at me when I read the committee's report and I ask him to comment on them in light of our scenario. It was stated in the...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Sectoral Emissions Ceilings: Discussion (20 Jul 2022)
Paul Daly: Deputy Carthy has covered the majority of what I was going to say. From the answers the Departments have given, they have no idea at the moment how they can achieve 22%. How in God's name can they justify 22.01% at the end of negotiations when they do not know how they will achieve 22%? They are depending on emerging sciences and technologies and tests that are only at inception stage. As...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Sectoral Emissions Ceilings: Discussion (20 Jul 2022)
Paul Daly: Through the Chair, I never mentioned anything about individual sectors or singling out sectors. I asked a simple question regarding to how the Departments propose reaching or can justify more than 22%. I am totally opposed to this sector versus sector thing that Mr. Kierans is bringing up but it was not mentioned in my contribution. This is the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Agriculture,...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Sectoral Emissions Ceilings: Discussion (20 Jul 2022)
Paul Daly: Mr. Kierans keeps going on about the importance of setting ambitious targets. My point is that it is far more important to set achievable targets than to be the top kid in the class who always has his or her hand up but does not know the answer. His narrative is so obvious in terms of ambitious targets. An ambitious target is useless if it is not achievable. We need to change that...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Nitrates Derogation and Nitrates Action Programme: Discussion (14 Sep 2022)
Paul Daly: I welcome the representatives from the ICMSA. For the purpose of my questions I will play devil's advocate. Assuming this new banding is in and we have the worst case scenario, more needs to be done to highlight the consequences, not just for the farmers involved. Does the ICMSA have any idea of the impact the final result - if it is as we seem to be picking up this evening - will have on...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Nitrates Derogation and Nitrates Action Programme: Discussion (14 Sep 2022)
Paul Daly: Will the proposed changes not happen in the North?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Nitrates Derogation and Nitrates Action Programme: Discussion (14 Sep 2022)
Paul Daly: That would create an uneven playing field.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Nitrates Derogation and Nitrates Action Programme: Discussion (14 Sep 2022)
Paul Daly: Mr. Callanan's statement was missing a page. He drifted out and drifted back in and we can see that a page was missing. I have a completely different statement from the Department.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Nitrates Derogation and Nitrates Action Programme: Discussion (14 Sep 2022)
Paul Daly: I am a sucker farmer and much of the terminology referring to cow banding and so on does not come naturally to me. On the testing scenario, I cannot get my head around how we can identify bad spots or what is causing pollution. That was the case going back to the first question from Deputy Fitzmaurice. Perhaps it is my own lack of comprehension. Perhaps we could get a breakdown in...
