Gerry Horkan: ...s mindset. The public transport stuff - the 90-minute fare and the €2 fare - is great. We need to accelerate credit card usage because not everybody has a Leap card and people should be able to tap on with their phone or credit card without a Leap card as people can do in London, Sydney and other cities. I am thinking in particular of people who do not use public transport that...

David Stanton: .... Science fact has overtaken science fiction in many ways. That is just one broad question about that area.

Simon Coveney: .... We are thinking at the moment about how perhaps we could create centres of expertise in some LEO offices that could become national centres expertise in certain areas and, of course, about how we can tap into expertise within Enterprise Ireland that could potentially be used by LEO offices as well.

Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Committee Stage (9 May 2023)

Michael McNamara: ..., I am equally not talking about Sinn Féin's ascent to power but we have had Ministers for Justice in the past who have abused the machinery of the Department and we know that. We have had phone tappings and all sorts of things. If it has happened once, it can happen twice.

...the balance. We are probably now in a transition situation. I fully accept the point the Chair has made. Appeals officers need experience of oral hearings if they are to conduct them.
