Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Implementation of National Mitigation Plan: Discussion (24 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: I thank all of the delegations for their presentations. The departmental review of this issue is quite depressing. I direct that view towards the Government rather than the officials present. The Government has not shown the political will needed to address what is now a crisis based on what the EPA had to state. We have known for some time the extent to which we are going to miss our...

Plastic and Packaging Pollution: Statements (19 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: I am pleased to speak about plastics pollution. As the weather brightens, thankfully, and more of us can take a walk on the local strand, in the local forest or along the many roads, the prevalence of plastics throughout the country is glaring at us in the face. There is no way around it - we must dramatically reduce plastics production and the pollution that emanates from it. Waste...

Statement by Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment (18 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: The Minister said an interesting thing - that he communicated his personal opinion to Mr. Ó Neachtain. How does he think that his personal opinion is relevant here? Does he not see himself as a Minister or is that sometimes his personal opinion does not coincide with his opinion as a Minister? I find that rather bizarre. It is almost like the Minister is attempting to throw out this...

Statement by Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment (18 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: On 6 December 2016, in response to a question as to what the Minister's intentions were in response to the proposed Celtic media takeover, he stated "I have not made my views known and I am not going to." He said it would be "not appropriate for me to provide any further comment while this case is under consideration". By his own admission, on 12 November the Minister communicated...

Statement by Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment (18 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: Is the Minister disputing the reported contents of the email that now forms part of the affidavit? Is he disputing that Mr. Ó Neachtain understood from the Minister that he intended to refer the decision to the BAI? Is he disputing those facts?

Statement by Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment (18 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: It is not credible that a public relations executive hired by a company of the size and scale of INM would attempt to mislead his client. It seems very clear to me from what is reported today that the email communicated with some considerable level of a definite understanding that the Minister would ultimately send the decision to the BAI. As I understand it, the Minister is disputing this,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Influence of Social Media on Elections and Referenda: Discussion (17 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: I welcome Ms Dixon and Ms Neary and thank them for their presentations. They talked about Internet segments. Are those Internet segments published? Do we have some understanding of what they are or what kind of silos are created? Ms Neary talked about purchasing books. That seems a rather benign example. There may be others that would be helpful. Is it the case that some social media...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Influence of Social Media on Elections and Referenda: Discussion (17 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: We have written to the commissioner through the clerk asking that she might update us on the job of work she is undertaking in respect of what is alleged as a data breach at Independent News and Media, INM. I do not wish her to go beyond what she would want to say here in respect of the fact that this is before the courts. We have grave concerns about the potential impact that any data...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Influence of Social Media on Elections and Referenda: Discussion (17 Apr 2018)

Timmy Dooley: For clarity, I am almost sure that what I have said in now way seeks to address anything that is going on in the courts. It is looking at what might be done regardless of the outcome of this particular event. I am concerned about protecting the data of journalists in particular because of the role that the fourth estate has in our democracy. It is of fundamental importance. For that...
