Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (8 Dec 2021)

David Cullinane: A number of months ago, Ministers and the three leaders of the parties in government, made a lot of noise about the bonus and recognition payment for those on the front line in healthcare. Many Ministers fell over themselves to talk about how that was going to be expanded to others on the front line outside of healthcare. There was a lot of expectation built up and a great deal of noise....

Health and Criminal Justice (Covid-19) (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2021: Committee and Remaining Stages (8 Dec 2021)

David Cullinane: I had not intended to come back in but in light of the Minister's response I have no choice. I want to put a number of points on the record. The Minister's argument that I and Sinn Féin would consciously and deliberately vote against a public health-led response to this pandemic would hold some water if when I was asked privately and publicly if I support public health measures my...

They welcome the legislation in as...

David Cullinane: Very good. I thank Ms Power for that response. On that issue, Mr. Macey accepts, and it is a sensible approach, that this issue might be best dealt with in separate amending legislation. He referred to it as a complex age of sale item of legislation that might need to be done separately. Is that the proposal he would make? While he is flagging this legislation, he does not necessarily...
