- Competition (Amendment) Bill 2005 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed). (31 Jan 2006)
Eamon Ryan: Prior to pumping the economy for the next general election, the Government will say it has tackled the issue of the lack of competition by the bold provisions of this Bill, but that is nonsense. It does not attack the core issue of competition in this society. As evidence from Central Statistics Office and other reports have shown, the groceries order was not a major reason for the lack of...

- EU Services Directive: Motion. (25 Jan 2006)
Eamon Ryan: The Green group in the European Parliament with their socialist colleagues have led the opposition to the services directive. During a meeting on 22 November of the committee in the Parliament that examines it, we opposed the votes by the conservative groups, the liberals, on the amendments they proposed. We must be careful in this debate to ascertain what people are doing rather than what...

- Fisheries Protection. (25 Jan 2006)
Eamon Ryan: In response to an earlier question, the Minister of State assured the House that there is, as much as possible and practicable, a proper control system in place. I assure him that almost everyone involved in this business agrees that there is an utter lack of control in fisheries management, that there is, in effect, an utterly corrupt regime where it is impossible for the Naval Service to...

- Fisheries Protection. (25 Jan 2006)
Eamon Ryan: Representatives of the our Marine Institute told the joint committee they do not believe the landing reports. Without referring to individual cases, the system is crooked and utterly corrupt. I seek an honest answer from the Minister of State. Boats from various European countries, including France, Spain and Belgium, can openly fish in Irish waters. How can the Naval Service police the quota...

- Climate Change. (15 Dec 2005)
Eamon Ryan: I thank the Leas-Cheann Comhairle for the opportunity to raise this issue of major historical importance, namely, the agreement that was reached last Saturday in Montreal under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
