An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (14 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: I want to raise the issue of the lack of school places for children starting in our excellent primary schools in Kilcock. These are young children with rights to attend their local schools and I am receiving an increasing number of emails from their parents. Too many families are looking for too few places in north Kildare. They are just after getting out of childcare and now they find...

Cost-of-Living Supports: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (14 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: I am happy to speak on the spring bonus proposal from An Teachta Doherty, which is a care package for people depending of social protection. “Social protection” are not dirty words. Our care package focuses on people in real need: families, lone parents, carers, people with disabilities. It is the opposite of the bonus arrangements and pamper packages the Government devises...

Housing and Evictions: Motion [Private Members] (21 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: Eviction is simply a word to this Government. It is something that, hopefully, no Members of Government will ever have to face. For too many of my north Kildare constituents, looming eviction is an absolute terror. It is the terror of joining the almost 12,000 people in emergency accommodation across the State. That number does not include those who are sofa surfing or living on the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Climate Action Plan 2023: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (22 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: I also congratulate the Minister on his new Department. It is a huge Department and a very important one. I also thank him for his presentation. I too am convinced that tackling climate change is going to be the global challenge of this decade. Just transition and human rights have to be a huge part of that, in Ireland and across the globe. The Minister also said how important he sees...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Climate Action Plan 2023: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (22 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: I would like to stress to the Minister that small businesses cannot do any more than small to medium damage, but what about these large corporations? Climate justice and the just transition has to be central to this. I would like if EPP party members would strengthen this. We are a very small country but, as part of the EU, we can make a bigger impact. I would like to see Ireland taking a...

Written Answers — Department of Health: Hospital Services (22 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: 212. To ask the Minister for Health if he will revisit the apparent decision to relocate the Naas antenatal clinic attached to the Coombe Hospital to Portlaoise hospital, thereby duplicating services at a hospital that already has its own maternity unit where women will deliver locally, but leaving Kildare women who will deliver at the Coombe without their much relied-on clinic in Naas; and...

We will propose amendments in the future. The Bill sets out to achieve clear and effective oversight and accountability of An Garda Síochána. Sinn Féin welcomes this. It is clear that policing reform in this jurisdiction is...

National Ambulance Service: Motion [Private Members] (28 Feb 2023)

Réada Cronin: Most of us have a story about how brilliant our ambulance paramedics and personnel are. They are the men and women we hope to never meet but when we need them we want to see them as quickly as possible. I know my local ambulance base in Maynooth very well. I campaigned about it having its hours cut during the austerity Government of Fine Gael and Labour in 2012. Ever since then Maynooth...
