Mary Lou McDonald: I raised with the Taoiseach yesterday the scandalous situation of kids with scoliosis and spina bifida waiting for their operations. The Taoiseach made some kind of promise and I want to get clarity on it. Parents are watching this very carefully. They are not interested in smart alec responses from anybody. What resources is the Government putting in place to meet the four-month target...

Simon Harris: I thank the Deputy very much. I appreciate her pledge not to engage in smart alec comments. With regard to this important issue, I am very happy to meet the families. It is the least I could do. I will arrange to do that. I cannot give the Deputy a date right now, but I will do it in the next couple of weeks. I am very happy to do that; in fact, I think I would benefit from doing it....

Ivana Bacik: I wish to raise with the Taoiseach an issue I have been raising for some time with his predecessor and, indeed, the Tánaiste, namely, justice for survivors of Thalidomide in Ireland.

Simon Harris: I certainly will. I have already had contact with Finola Cassidy from the group, who is a regular campaigner here in Leinster House and known to all of us. I am very happy to have that engagement. As the Deputy said, there was a lot of engagement prior to my appointment with both my predecessors, Deputy Varadkar and the Tánaiste. I have asked to be briefed by my officials on where...

Holly Cairns: We are on course to spectacularly miss our climate targets. The latest person to sound the alarm about this impending failure was Mary Robinson. She cannot understand why funding that is available now to help reduce our emissions and meet our targets is not being used, and nor can I. We have so much work to do and so little time to do it. Inaction or insufficient action is not a credible...
