- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Citizens' Assembly Report on Biodiversity Loss: Discussion (Resumed) (14 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: By way of an example, unfortunately, this is again very considerably reducing the payment to the farmers. They are now being standardised across a wider area. All that will do is have other farmers say that it is not worth their while because these are farmers who bought into it and, quite frankly, the State is turning their backs on them.

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (14 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: Another week has gone by, another week of death and destruction in the Gaza Strip. Countless thousands of lives have been lost in the seven days since we last addressed this issue. The footage on television on a nightly basis, of the dead bodies of infants and newborns unable to survive without electricity, heat and medical intervention is something one would not have expected from any...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Future Licences and Contracts to Connect Data Centres to the Gas Network: Discussion (15 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I thank both groups for their presentations. We are here to discuss data centres and their impact on the grid and electricity generation in general. To reflect a little bit on what Ms Donnelly said about wind energy and how that debate has been lost in conversations in communities, I am concerned that a little bit of that is creeping into the debate on data centres. There is an effort by...

Timmy Dooley: The sound bites are so much easier. When one is explaining, one is losing. Sound bites feature all the time in politics. I am always taken by the protest that used be about the telephone masts, where the handwritten sign put up stated, "Call 087 ..., if you want ...". That was okay, but there was no coverage.
- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I ask the Leader at her convenience to organise a debate in this House on the renewable energy sector. We frequently talk about the importance of moving away from fossil fuels owing to the positive impact that would have on the environment and we look at the various different options that are there. Of course, more wind needs to be captured to generate electricity and we need greater use of...
- Seanad: Sports Funding: Statements (21 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I welcome the Minister of State. I compliment him on his efforts to secure the additional funding necessary to meet the needs and expectations of growing communities. Funding is key because it is the only way we will get the infrastructure in place. The day is gone when we could expect or demand volunteers to be out, cap in hand, effectively begging their local communities. That should...
- Seanad: Sports Funding: Statements (21 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: That is the critical thing.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: It is about the user experience of those who have to use the south gates on a regular basis. These are people who come in late at night from a long way away and, notwithstanding paying high air fares, do not have tunnel access or an air bridge. Ireland is renowned for its damp weather conditions, so it is not a good user experience. Mr. Jacobs said that Dublin Airport is an airport for...
