Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (23 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: Yesterday the Taoiseach got away with telling us that the mother and baby home commission needed time to finish its work. On the surface, that sounds reasonable enough. The problem is the commission does not deal with the issue of the time it has already had. It was set up to do a job in three years, but what we have after its four years of work is four interim reports, in the first of...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (23 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: The information the Taoiseach has given the House is inaccurate. How does he know that the commission will carry out its work now? He has referred to other interviews that need to take place and extra documentation received. Does he not know that the report published yesterday referred to the interviews being concluded this month? Can he tell me if they have been concluded? The...

Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Second Stage [Private Members] (23 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: I am absolutely delighted to speak to this important Bill. It is so incredibly rare here to express pride in something we are doing as a Parliament. Like everyone else, I compliment Senator Black and salute Fianna Fáil for introducing the Bill to this House. Obviously, the Government is the odd one out. Since its arguments against the legality of the Bill are so utterly and...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rights and Equality in the Context of Brexit: Discussion (23 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: I am not going to ask the witnesses questions because I have too many to ask. In a normal meeting we ask questions to get answers but, in fairness, nobody has answers at this juncture. What the witnesses have done is incredibly important. I agree with Deputy O'Callaghan that, notwithstanding the efforts and points that have been made by the witnesses about putting human rights issues...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rights and Equality in the Context of Brexit: Discussion (23 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: I say that because the information or the complexities that have been expressed by the witnesses, even by us allowing them to have a public conversation here, have been shocking and sobering for me in a number of different areas. The witnesses have highlighted the scary legal deficit regarding citizenship and the exercising of rights, which needs to be addressed. What can we, as...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rights and Equality in the Context of Brexit: Discussion (23 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: I thank the Chairman. Too often Oireachtas committees are used by their members to try to promote themselves to gain a cheap headline. I thank the Chairman for coming up with this initiative and the delegates for attending. It is what a committee meeting should be - a facility to air publicly and tease out some of the very complex issues involved. The delegates have done it very well and...

If the Minister is saying that the primary decision is now with the competent authority...
