- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (17 Apr 2019)
Mattie McGrath: It is, of course. It is on very important legislation about our future after Brexit. Secretary of State Gove has expressed the view that tariffs should be imposed on Irish exports, especially beef, lamb and dairy products. This is very concerning. I hope the Taoiseach, the Tánaiste and his Minister for Agriculture, Food and Marine are aware of this in the first instance. This a...

- Post-European Council Meetings: Statements (17 Apr 2019)
Mattie McGrath: Fine, but the Taoiseach has a habit of leaving when we Independents rise to speak. Whether he thinks we do not matter I do not know, but he will find that out some day soon. It is disrespectful, and I hope the Minister of State passes on the message to him. I understand he is a busy man, but it always seems to be when the party leaders are finished that he decides to go. As we know,...
- Post-European Council Meetings: Statements (17 Apr 2019)
Mattie McGrath: They might be but it is too late for that, unless the two Deputies submitted my name and did not tell me. They will not need subs anyway because they are able and capable and will be capable members of the European Parliament. I wish all of the candidates running in the elections well but especially those from the Independent benches. People are tired of party politics. It will also have...

- National Children's Hospital Costs: Statements (17 Apr 2019)
Mattie McGrath: That was a good question and I would also like to see the contract. The PwC report is explicitly clear that, of the nine organisations it interviewed during the process, not one of them included representatives of the Connolly for Kids group, or any of those senior clinicians who have campaigned and forensically deconstructed the arguments for St. James's Hospital for years. PwC did not...
- National Children's Hospital Costs: Statements (17 Apr 2019)
Mattie McGrath: I have questions. Have we any regard for the sick babies that we have been told about by the eminent professor? I received a reply to a parliamentary question from the Minister for Health today which is full of waffle about co-locating. He stated that a site for the proposed maternity hospital is identified in the St. James's site master plan. It is just an identified site. He went on...
