Seanad: Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Committee Stage (6 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: I move amendment No. 7: In page 23, to delete line 27 and substitute the following: “(i) independently, impartially and in accordance with law,”. Section 4 sets out the policing principles. Our amendment is very basic and simple but is important and needs to be said nonetheless. The principle is that policing services are to be provided independently, impartially and in...

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: I thank everyone for coming for this hearing today. I, too, join with Deputies O'Sullivan and Munster, along with the Chair, in expressing that frustration in terms of representatives from X not appearing here today. This is really my first question. I have read the statements carefully and listened to what the witnesses said about the efforts they are making across all four platforms, as...

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: That engagement and that filtering process requires a lot of engagement from a TikTok user. Some very young users, and even older users as well, would not necessarily be able to navigate that. We are very much reliant on individuals. I am almost out of time but I have one other question that I would like to ask after Google has answered this question.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (13 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: I support the Order of Business which I thought would be opposed. I am glad that we can support it and that the Bill is not being guillotined. I wish to raise the issue of special or ASD class places, particularly secondary school places. Right now many families across this country are facing into Christmas not knowing whether they will have a school place for their child with additional...

Seanad: Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2023: Committee and Remaining Stages (13 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: I thank Senators Cummins and Fitzpatrick for their contributions. We are disappointed that we did not get a chance to debate this amendment. If the amendment was deemed to be too broad, then our disappointment is with the Government for not tabling an amendment to deal with some of these issues. We have been a bit bewildered by some of the response, notwithstanding some of the Minister of...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (14 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: The Labour Party group also wishes Tom Hickey the best in his retirement. I thank Tom for his great courtesy and helpfulness. His great sense of authority in managing Leinster House struck us over the years. I wish him the best in his retirement. I join previous speakers in thanking all the staff, the people we see and the people we do not see, in Leinster House, who make this building...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Shoplifting: Discussion (13 Dec 2023)

Marie Sherlock: I thank all the witnesses for taking the time to come in today. I am conscious that it is obviously a very busy time of the year, but it is also timely that they are here, particularly in light of what happened three weeks ago tomorrow in Dublin city centre. That was rioting and looting, but the issue of shoplifting and attacks on shops is not just confined to Dublin. It is right across the...
