Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Housing Provision (8 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: This matter is a very important one for the Department of housing and I thank the Deputy for raising it.

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Housing Provision (8 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: The Deputy is correct. I recall a number of examples of complete regeneration projects in Dublin, including right in the heart of the north inner city and in Dolphin's Barn where flats were beyond their lifespan in the way described by the Deputy. A completely different regenerative approach was necessary but it was largely driven by Dublin City Council in the first instance and supported...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Water Quality (8 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I could not agree more. It appears that the issues which give rise to the necessity for boil water notices can be easily understood and communicated.

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Water Quality (8 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: It is a most reasonable request and I am sorry the Deputy has to raise it persistently on behalf of his constituents.

Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Wastewater Treatment (1 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I thank the Senator for raising the issue again. It is not by any means the first or second time he has raised it in this House and he is representing his constituents most ably to try to advance this, which is of course entirely what they are entitled to. The Senator is already aware that the Water Services Acts 2007-2020 set out the arrangements in place for the delivery of water and...

Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Housing Provision (1 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I will certainly ask the relevant Department to do that, but it is by no means the first time I have come across such a case. For example, proposed housing for veterans of the Defence Forces in Limerick and Cork is subject to similar transfer and process delays, which I find intolerable. These things are incredibly urgent and important and while this process has been going on for 30 years,...
