If people put on LMFM and nearly every morning, they will hear a different elected...

National Cancer Strategy: Motion [Private Members] (16 Apr 2024)

Ruairí Ó Murchú: Deputy Cullinane brought this motion forward because cancer services are not being properly funded. The Government has absolutely failed to fund the cancer strategy for five of the past seven years. As has already been said, we are dealing with expensive lifesaving equipment lying idle due to staff shortages. Cancer surgeries are being cancelled because of hospital overcrowding. It has...

Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings System Bill 2024: Second Stage (16 Apr 2024)

Ruairí Ó Murchú: It has been put by many colleagues in the House, particularly Deputy Ó Laoghaire, that a considerable number of us in Sinn Féin would have supported that overall idea of auto-enrolment. It is something for which we would have pushed for a considerable amount of time. An argument can even be made that we are late to the game in that regard. Like an awful lot of other schemes,...

Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings System Bill 2024: Second Stage (16 Apr 2024)

Ruairí Ó Murchú: It is with regard to people now having to send their stuff, whether it is by email or otherwise. They go into the Intreo office, and it is obviously posted on.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (16 Apr 2024)

Ruairí Ó Murchú: We are dealing with the fact the western world has questions not only about security but also credibility. We know there have been absolute failings if we are speaking about the US, Germany, the British and many countries throughout the EU. We know that what Benjamin Netanyahu is involved in is absolute genocidal slaughter. We know there are absolute fears about an escalation and the...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committees (16 Apr 2024)

Ruairí Ó Murchú: I would also offer to Deputy Barry that manganese seems to be an issue with water discolouration. Louth County Council and Irish Water have done much work on pilot schemes. Some of my follow-up questions for Uisce Éireann relate specifically to that. House prices and rents are at record highs. There is a rising market. Analysts are now saying that the rate of house price...
