Vote 44 - Data Protection Commission (Revised) (14 Feb 2023)

Pa Daly: If someone today wanted a trial date in the Circuit Criminal Court in Dublin, he or she would get one in 2025. The waiting period in Dundalk is also bad. In Kerry, someone would be waiting for longer than two years to get a trial date. Of course, that might differ in circumstances where a child is involved, for example. Someone would be waiting 15 to 18 months in the Central Criminal...

Pa Daly: I wish to ask a supplementary question. It would be wrong of me to let this opportunity go without mentioning the decision taken recently by Kerry County Council to give a portion of ground to the Courts Service for the construction of a new courthouse. Notwithstanding that the decision was taken by a full vote of Kerry County Council, it would be a mistake to move the existing court...

Pa Daly: Of course, but I disagree on the point that was raised that one cannot put four courtrooms in the existing building. There is so much empty space within the current structure that it would be easy to put two if not three additional courtrooms in the building. For a lot of reasons, including the carbon footprint of constructing a new building, it would be within the overall common good of...

Pa Daly: I have a question arising out of what the Minister said. He reported the 13,600 applications to the International Protection Office and there is additional funding, which includes €9 million for the appeals tribunal. Obviously, there are other programmes and I welcome the announcement today about the golden visa programme being shut down. On a breakdown of the figures on where people...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ministerial Responsibilities (9 Feb 2023)

Pa Daly: I am somewhat worried given the Minister of State is now working in three separate Departments, yet this is such an important area. We are seeing the rise of the far right and we do not want what happened in the Netherlands and Sweden to happen here. Should some Minister or Minister of State have sole responsibility for this such that it would be his or her one job to deal with integration?...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ministerial Responsibilities (9 Feb 2023)

Pa Daly: 69. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the roles and responsibilities of the newly appointed Minister of State with special responsibility for integration and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5815/23]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ministerial Responsibilities (9 Feb 2023)

Pa Daly: I wish the Minister of State well in his new role. What are the responsibilities of the newly appointed Minister of State with special responsibility for integration? Is it an acknowledgement that this Ministry has become, or always was, too big and broad? From what we have seen in recent weeks, were Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael Deputies reluctant to step into this role or were they...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ministerial Responsibilities (9 Feb 2023)

Pa Daly: Are there any plans to expand the integration fund and community engagement? Has there been an acknowledgement by the Government that this Department needs to be improved? There was talk in some of the earlier engagements of the cross-government approach. We have heard about pressures on GP care. Are there any plans to expand Sláintecare? Are there any plans for the HSE to employ...

Garda Síochána (Recording Devices) Bill 2022: Second Stage (1 Feb 2023)

Pa Daly: I listened to what the Minister said about the Bill. It is understandable that there is some extra impetus behind it, given some of the recent assaults we have seen on rank and file gardaí. At the same time, doing so in a hurry creates a risk. The Minister's comments that everybody is entitled to go about their business without interference, and that everything should be...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Fís TG4 agus na dúshláin atá roimhe: Plé (1 Feb 2023)

Cad atá á lorg ag TG4 mar gheall air sin? Cé mhéad atá á lorg mar chreidmheas cánach? An gceapann TG4 go mbeidh aon choinníollacha teanga ag baint...

Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Motion [Private Members] (31 Jan 2023)

Pa Daly: I welcome Valerie O’Sullivan, who has travelled from Tralee to be here. She can only be described as someone who has survived her treatment in CAMHS. Some other children in County Kerry and their parents, with whom I have spoken, must have laughed when they heard rhetoric about cherishing all children of the nation equally after, for example, scrambling around looking for a bed for...
