Select Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Estimates for Public Services 2019
Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Revised) (2 Apr 2019)

Jackie Cahill: Deputy McConalogue spoke in detail on the preparations for Brexit and I will avoid duplication if I can. Last week, a Private Members' Bill was introduced in response to the crisis in the beef industry. A large amount of beef is exported to the EU market. There is very little recognition of how dependent the Dutch and Danes are on the UK market. In the case of a no-deal Brexit both...

Agrifood Market Priorities post Brexit: Statements (3 Apr 2019)

Jackie Cahill: We will not shirk our responsibilities. All of us are out knocking on doors at the moment in support of our fellow politicians who are running in the European and local elections. At virtually every door, we are asked what is going to happen with Brexit and what impact Brexit will have. None of us has a crystal ball that shows us what Westminster will do. If one wants to get depressed...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (4 Apr 2019)

Jackie Cahill: I raised this issue last week. Given that the Project Ireland 2040 national planning framework is meant to rejuvenate town centres, it is extraordinary that a State agency is doing the exact opposite. Moving the post office will destroy retail business in the town centre, so the Minister standing idly by and letting this happen is not good enough. I support my colleague's call for an...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Future of the Beef Sector in the Context of Food Wise 2025: Discussion (Resumed) (9 Apr 2019)

Jackie Cahill: I had to attemd another meeting and apologise for being away for some of the debate. It is not often that I agree with the Green Party Deputy, but I agree with his statement that we have to change. As it stands, the beef industry is not going to survive. I have never seen such despondency among beef farmers. Last week I said in the Dáil that it did not matter whether one was a...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (16 Apr 2019)

Jackie Cahill: Last week, the number of patients on trolleys in University Hospital Limerick peaked at 92. When Nenagh hospital was downgraded, we were promised a state-of-the-art facility in University Hospital Limerick. It is obvious that that promise has been broken. I ask the Government to invest in the accident and emergency department in Nenagh hospital. Having it open 24 hours a day would do...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Post Office Network (16 Apr 2019)

Jackie Cahill: An Post's proposal to move the Thurles post office from Liberty Square is wrong. We have an €8 million plan to revitalise the square, which is being spearheaded by Tipperary County Council. That plan adheres to Government policy, which is supported by the Dáil, on regenerating rural town centres. It is a disgrace that the management of a State-owned company like An Post is...
