Prohibition of the Exploration and Extraction of Onshore Petroleum Bill 2016: Second Stage [Private Members] (27 Oct 2016)

Catherine Connolly: I never thought that I would reach the stage where my inspiration and renewed faith in the political process would come from a Fine Gael Deputy. I have to place on the record that it does. I hope to be continuously surprised. I thank Deputy McLoughlin for giving me that hope. I listened to and participated in the earlier debate on climate change and will not repeat what I said then....

Calais Migrant Camp: Statements (2 Nov 2016)

Catherine Connolly: I have just two minutes and 50 seconds so I will be blunt, brief and to the point. I am not sure if the Ministers do shame but I certainly felt shame listening to their speeches and reading them again as I sit here. They have been asked to lead and the country is begging us to join together, stand with an act of solidarity and take in at least 200 children. There is hypocrisy in this...

Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Bill 2015 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (3 Nov 2016)

Catherine Connolly: I welcome the legislation which I will come back to but I want to make a number of preliminary points in view of what was said earlier in the Chamber. Unfortunately, Deputy Hildegarde Naughton has left but I want to correct what she said with regard to Galway. There was no charge, and the women she referred to were not convicted of being prostitutes. They pleaded guilty straight away and...

Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Bill 2015 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (3 Nov 2016)

Catherine Connolly: With respect to the conflation of trafficking with the purchase of sex, they are two entirely different issues. I absolutely abhor it. The Government should come back to us to outline how it has enforced the existing legislation. The Oireachtas report indicates that 90% of women who are sex workers want to leave prostitution, but there are no exit strategies for them in this...

Public Sector Pay: Motion [Private Members] (8 Nov 2016)

Catherine Connolly: Since I have been elected as a Deputy I have found myself on occasion supporting motions tabled by Sinn Féin and the Anti-Austerity Alliance-People Before Profit. On this occasion, however, I do not support them as I think this is the lowest type of politics. As I sat in my office preparing for tomorrow and waiting for my turn tonight, I found myself listening in agreement to some of...

Public Sector Pay: Motion [Private Members] (8 Nov 2016)

Catherine Connolly: Also, the type of language being used in this Chamber is unacceptable. I would have preferred if this time had been used to discuss the hospitals trolley crisis. There were 45 people on trolleys in Galway today. We have a housing crisis and only 14 houses being built this year in Galway. I do not attempt to be parochial because this is what is happening all over the country. Turning...

Questions on Proposed Legislation (9 Nov 2016)

Catherine Connolly: The programme for Government commits to a health service for everyone. There were 51 people on trolleys last night in a centre of excellence in Galway city. I make no apologies for raising this issue. The Taoiseach visited Galway city and said at that time that the accident and emergency department is not fit for purpose, as did the leader of Fianna Fáil. I call on the Taoiseach to...
