Other Questions: Early Childhood Care and Education Programmes (17 Oct 2017)

Anne Rabbitte: My remarks on capacity differs little from Deputy Niamh Smyth's. The issues with capacity that I would have brought to the Minister's attention in recent days related to a crèche in Mountbellew in my constituency, and there is another one in Deputy Michael Moynihan's constituency. These crèches are seeking to expand and are looking to see if a capital programme will be put forward...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Cyber Security: Discussion (Resumed) (18 Oct 2017)

Anne Rabbitte: I thank the gentlemen very much for their presentations this morning. It is amazing what is going on in the audiovisual room at the moment in respect of the Mental Health Commission. I believe some online activities can also lead to mental health difficulties. The reason many of our colleagues have stepped out at this moment is to be in the audiovisual room. One of the ladies involved,...

How are children encouraged? How can we...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Cyber Security: Discussion (Resumed) (18 Oct 2017)

Anne Rabbitte: I know Professor O'Connell was here earlier and he heard some of the questions. I asked earlier about the Budapest and Lanzarote conventions. We have signed up to them but we have not brought them through the Oireachtas. Has that influenced this morning's presentation or what is the take of the witnesses on that? I asked the previous two speakers the same question.
