Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (Supplementary)
Vote 22 - Courts Service (Supplementary)
Vote 24 - Department of Justice (Supplementary) (1 Dec 2021)

Pa Daly: Maybe I should raise this in respect of the Courts Service, but a complaint was recently made to me about the number of judges available. I do not know whether that matter falls under judges' pay or the Courts Service. I am aware of a person who has a terminal cancer diagnosis and wanted to put their affairs in order. They asked for the earliest possible date to hear their case and this...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 Dec 2021)

Pa Daly: Gabhaim buíochas leis na finnéithe go léir as teacht isteach. Tá cúpla ceist agam do Tim Lucey ó Chorcaigh mar gheall ar an bplean forbartha. Bhí cúpla gearán againn. Dúirt daoine liom go raibh sé ar fáil i mBéarla amháin. Is ar éigean a rinneadh aon tagairt do Chúil Aodha sa phlean agus ní raibh tagairt...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 Dec 2021)

Pa Daly: No. It might have been unfair of me to ask Ms Murrell specifically about this. One of the recommendations in the joint statement we received from the various councils was that clarity be sought from the Office of the Attorney General on the legal enforceability of conditions relating to the ability of occupants to speak the Irish language. That probably relates to the Belgian decision. My...

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (Supplementary)
Vote 22 - Courts Service (Supplementary)
Vote 24 - Department of Justice (Supplementary) (1 Dec 2021)

Pa Daly: On subhead A2.6, as the Minister of State correctly said, there are currently two courts in the existing building. That does not take into account all the spare space that is within the building. There is enough space, in my opinion, for at least three extra courtrooms in the existing premises. There was a review which, I believe, is outdated for a number of reasons, including, most...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 Dec 2021)

Pa Daly: Labhair Moira Murrell mar gheall ar serviced sites agus na rudaí sin. Tá sé go maith é sin a chloisteáil. Gabhaim buíochas leis an bhfoireann go léir. Chuala mé le déanaí go raibh gealltanas ó Chomhairle Contae Chiarraí go mbeadh freagra tugtha ar gach iarratas pleanála as Gaolainn. Tá sé sin ag tarlú agus...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Third Level Education (30 Nov 2021)

Pa Daly: Will the Minister engage with the Minister for Social Protection on this? The former Minister responsible for higher education, Deputy Bruton, promised to correct what he called this “anomaly” four years ago in response to a question by a Deputy from another party. A family in need of social protection with one assessment is denied the right to educate children with another...

[58611/21]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Third Level Education (30 Nov 2021)

Pa Daly: Iarradh an cheist seo cheana féin le blianta ach níor freagraíodh í fós. Cén plean atá ag an Aire chun na daoine atá in ann deontas SUSI a fháil agus atá ar an working family payment a bheith in ann cothabháil agus táillí ollscoile a fháil? Are there any plans for families in receipt of the working family payment to be...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Third Level Education (30 Nov 2021)

Pa Daly: This may not affect very many families but it is very important nonetheless. I understand the exclusion of the working family payment from reckonable income and that is appropriate. The fact remains that there are families who are in receipt of this payment and in order to survive, raise their families and educate them, they do that in spite of the fact that they are denied a maintenance...

Employment Support Services: Motion [Private Members] (30 Nov 2021)

Pa Daly: I support the motion. The Government's stance is mind-boggling. The tendering process does not make sense and the community not-for-profit model must be preserved and not dismantled. I find it hard to understand why the Government would do something like this from a community point of view, a jobs point of view and a political point of view. Taking the decision to commercialise these...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Minorities Engaging with the Justice System: Discussion (24 Nov 2021)

Pa Daly: I can spare 30 seconds at the end of my contribution for the Deputy Kenny. I thank all the witnesses, including Mr. Farrelly and Ms Keane, whom I remember from my time in University College Dublin, UCD. I have a few questions for Mr. Farrelly and Ms Keane in particular. I have two brief questions. Is an authorised officer an inspector or superintendent or is it somebody with training? Ms...
