Kieran O'Donnell: I welcome Mr. Murphy and his colleagues. I wish to elaborate on a number of points which may have been touched on. I refer to the report of a review carried out by the UK national audit office. I refer to the breakdown of the share of profit between public sector and private sector in public private partnerships. Is it possible for either to make a profit from a PPP? Are the terms of a...

Shannon Airport: Motion (11 Dec 2012)

Kieran O'Donnell: I am delighted to take part in this historic debate. I have listened to the debate thus far. I think everyone is agreed that Shannon Airport could not continue as is for a number of reasons. It is impossible for anyone to compete with their employer. Shannon Airport was competing with the Dublin Airport Authority. The priority of the Dublin Airport Authority for some time has been...

Shannon Airport: Motion (11 Dec 2012)

Kieran O'Donnell: The target is to bring in 1 million passengers using international airlines, including Transair, which has been mentioned in the media, and to be able to fly passengers from Shannon Airport to America, which will be new business for Ireland. That is a rising tide which will lift all boats. The Minister of State, Deputy Kelly, Deputy Dooley and I are Deputies from the western seaboard, which...

Shannon Airport: Motion (11 Dec 2012)

Kieran O'Donnell: Shannon Airport has the longest runway in Europe, a history in terms of transatlantic flights, preclearance for passengers and many other advantages, which we must exploit. I do not believe these could be exploited under the current model of the Dublin Airport Authority. If the attention of the DAA is on filling terminal 2, Shannon Airport will not receive the attention it requires. Plans...

Report of the Expert Group on the Judgment in the A, B and C v. Ireland Case: Statements (Resumed) (7 Dec 2012)

Kieran O'Donnell: It is a very important debate. I have listened to the debate on this subject, which has been widely discussed recently. The public is looking for a consensus on the issue. It is fair to say there is a broad consensus among politicians and the general public that there is a need to legislate and regulate for best medical practice. What we must do is ensure that we preserve the reputation...
