- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Eradication of Bovine Tuberculosis: Discussion (16 Feb 2022)
Danny Healy-Rae: I thank all the witnesses for coming here. It has been a very interesting session. It is very interesting to hear all the angles and takes on the matter.

Other countries have practically got rid of TB and what is happening here is...

- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Farm Costs (15 Feb 2022)
Danny Healy-Rae: I raised this issue back in November and it is now the middle of February, which is when farmers need to spread their fertiliser. To take one product alone, urea was €330 a tonne this time last year. Now it is €930 a tonne. That is the gospel truth. Farmers cannot work without getting some bit of a profit. At this rate they will not survive. They will have to pass their...

- Tackling the Cost of Living - Institutional Investors in the Residential Property Market: Motion (15 Feb 2022)
Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to speak. I thank Sinn Féin for facilitating this very important debate. I agree with the motion, but I have a different angle I wish to raise. We are talking about tackling the cost of living, which has gone up exorbitantly because of the cost of fuel - diesel, petrol and home heating oil. We know that this has gone up worldwide, but the tax take is...

- National Minimum Wage: Motion [Private Members] (9 Feb 2022)
Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to speak. I thank Deputy Boyd Barrett for his motion. Every man and woman, working or even not employed, is under savage pressure and the Government knows the reason for it. The cost of energy, the cost of travelling, the expense of diesel and petrol and home heating oil has gone up. Things are so extreme now. There was one way to deal with it, and...
- Dignity and Equality Issues in the Defence Forces: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (8 Feb 2022)
Danny Healy-Rae: I also thank Deputy Clarke and Sinn Féin for tabling this motion. For far too long, the members of the Defence Forces have not received recognition for the work they do. We have only to look back on all the men and women from our Army who went to undertake peacekeeping duties in Lebanon and other places and where they put their lives in danger. For far too long, we heard that they...
