Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (16 Dec 2020)

Danny Healy-Rae: The Taoiseach and the Government continuously advise people to buy electric cars. They tell us that we have to do it. I know of one girl in Killarney, among several others, who bought an electric car. She lives in a housing estate. She has asked for a kerbside charging point because she has a lead coming out of her letter box which crosses the public footpath. She is afraid that she will...

Impact of Covid-19 Restrictions: Motion [Private Members] (16 Dec 2020)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank our front-line workers in Kerry who did massive work in our hospitals and nursing homes. Anywhere they were required, they did their level best and did Trojan work.

People with cancer and people with hip and knee difficulties and so on have been left behind to suffer in pain. In...

Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed) - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Student Accommodation (15 Dec 2020)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Minister. The question still needs to be answered. Are students advised to go to college? They might not be allowed to go to college in the coming semester. The Minister is telling parents not to pay for student accommodation while we are under level 3 restrictions. That must be made clear to them. Many parents had more income in 2019 than this year because of the...

Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed) - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Student Accommodation (15 Dec 2020)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Minister. As he says, whether to pay is up to the parents. It is likely that the colleges will not open and will remain as they were from October to Christmas, unless we go to level 2 or level 1. We need to be honest with people. As I said, this is especially true in Kerry, where parents and students are very far away from colleges in Limerick, Galway, Cork and Waterford....

Pope Francis expressed his horror at the effects of...
