- Committee on Public Petitions: Consideration of Public Petition on Reform of Insurance for Thatched Heritage Buildings: Discussion (29 Sep 2022)
Richard O'Donoghue: I have been a building contractor all my working life. I have been involved in historical buildings dating as far back as the 14th century. The Government should provide insurance for every thatched house and listed building in the country. If we legislate to protect buildings and make them protected structures, the onus should be on the Government to provide insurance for them. The buck...

For example, a significant amount of money was spent at the Béal na Bláth commemoration for Michael Collins, and rightly so, because of the heritage that is there, in terms of winning...

Richard O'Donoghue: I will not delay but wish to make a final point. Ms McNelis has said that she has been trying to do this for the past 20 or more years.
