Cormac Devlin: I will stay with the issue of the deposit on the house in Dublin. Corrective action was taken, which is good.

University of Limerick Financial Report 2020
(12 May 2022)

Committee on Public Petitions: Consideration of Public Petition on a Ban on Herbicides in Public Areas: Discussion (12 May 2022)

Committee on Public Petitions: Consideration of Public Petition on a Ban on Herbicides in Public Areas: Discussion (12 May 2022)

Cormac Devlin: Public representatives and members of the public want to see weeds controlled where possible. They do not want the place to look untidy. To use Mr. Walsh's analogy, people are not looking for golf course quality, but ultimately, they do not want the place to fall into wrack and ruin. A balance is to be struck. Where local authorities could use products that are not harmful to the...

Cormac Devlin: I am reminding myself of the response from the Secretary General of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Brendan Gleeson. It touches on what we talked about earlier.

Committee on Public Petitions: Consideration of Public Petition on a Ban on Herbicides in Public Areas: Discussion (12 May 2022)

Cormac Devlin: Mr. Walsh mentioned the Straight A’s for AMENITY booklet, which is a fair question, perhaps, to add to our letter as well. This letter to the Department is getting longer by the minute, but in fairness some of the things Mr. Walsh touched on today were not responded to or highlighted within the Department's response. Obviously, they were not highlighted in Mr. Walsh's original...
