Lynn Ruane: Amendment No. 263 seeks to insert a new section in the Bill that would place an obligation on licensees to safeguard their participants from excessive and compulsive gambling.

Seanad: Gambling Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) (2 Oct 2024)

Lynn Ruane: Picking up on other Senators’ comments throughout the day, it is important to say there is stuff that does not make sense to me.

Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (26 Sep 2024)

Lynn Ruane: I like to listen to the room before I contribute. I thank the witnesses for the presentations. I think most people are on the same page when it comes to where we want things to go or where we think things should be. Logistically, realising that is a bit more difficult. Ms Collins mentioned intimidation and the need for us to have an honest conversation about that or about drug-related...

Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (26 Sep 2024)

Lynn Ruane: To go back to the idea of understanding the why, when we say we need to figure out how to restrict supply, societies have been trying to do that for a long time and it is the essence of the war on drugs, which we are trying to move away from. Obviously, within an institutional setting, I understand there is an extra layer whereby we cannot ignore contraband coming in, but if we are looking...

Seanad: Gambling Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (25 Sep 2024)

Lynn Ruane: Amendment No. 31 seeks to insert a reference to personal gaming devices in the list of what constitutes remote means. In the previous section of the debate, we discussed physical spaces, yet when we look at the online space, we are not fully doing what we need to do in that space either.
