Post-European Council Meeting: Statements (31 Jan 2023)

John Brady: It is really important that all perpetrators of war crimes are held to account for their crimes, for crimes against humanity, for butchery and grotesque murder of civilians in any circumstances. I welcome the EU push and the involvement of Ireland in the investigation by the International Criminal Court of all of the Russian atrocities. I genuinely welcome that and note that the...

Post-European Council Meeting: Statements (31 Jan 2023)

John Brady: First and foremost, I congratulate the Minister of State, Deputy Peter Burke, on his new position. This is my first opportunity to question the Minister of State on the floor of the House and I will try to be brief. I have a couple of questions and we can take them one at a time in the first slot.

Pre-European Council Meeting: Statements (7 Dec 2022)

John Brady: Why has Ireland failed to apply for a reimbursement from the fund?

Pre-European Council Meeting: Statements (7 Dec 2022)

John Brady: Ireland's share of the fund amounts to a modest €1 billion, compared with the likes of Spain, which has received more than €30 billion. These are badly needed funds which could help in a green transition, boosting regions and boosting our digital transition. The Government needs to get its act together in respect of the recovery fund. It is not acceptable that we are entitled...

I reiterate my call, a call made by Members of this House and others over the past seven...

Post-European Council: Statements (16 Nov 2022)

John Brady: Since the European Council last met, another deadline in the Northern Assembly has come and gone, with the DUP still refusing to re-enter the Executive. Ministers can no longer hold office and take decisions to support the people in the North. The DUP has cited concerns about the protocol, but in reality it is holding democracy to ransom. There is no justification for putting Stormont on...

Retained Firefighters: Motion [Private Members] (15 Nov 2022)

John Brady: Members of the retained service and their family members came to Dublin today and marched on the Dáil. Some have sat outside for the duration of this debate. They came here out of frustration looking for hope and respect, but all they got from the Government benches were words. They received no hope from the Government benches and little respect. Instead, they got a classic case of...
