High Energy Costs: Motion [Private Members] (7 Mar 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank my colleagues, Deputies Doherty and O'Rourke, for bringing forward this motion.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committees (7 Mar 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I wish to register my shock and horror at the decision to end the eviction ban. That decision will be remembered for a very long time. Students will be among those left without a roof over their head. Student accommodation is part of the broader housing crisis overseen by Fine Gael over the past 12 years. The cost and availability of education is the biggest barrier to third level...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Priorities (7 Mar 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: This evening, Sinn Féin will bring a motion asking the Government to tax electricity companies on their obscene profits and put that money towards reducing and capping people's bills. Back in November 2022, I warned the Government the electricity pricing system was broken and people were paying prices they should not and need not have been paying.

Employment Equality (Pay Transparency) Bill 2022: Second Stage [Private Members] (2 Mar 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I want to acknowledge the work of my colleague, Deputy Daly, and Lee Daly in his office, on this Bill. The more transparency around wages the better for all workers as it can help to ensure a fair deal from employers. Pay transparency is also an important tool for tackling the gender pay gap and other forms of pay related discrimination. Progress has been made in the area of pay...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Ms Bronagh Hinds (2 Mar 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank Ms Hinds. It was an interesting conversation from a number of different aspects. More women on the council was mentioned. It just crossed my mind that there may be an opportunity within the PEACEPLUS programme, which now facilitates more collaboration between councils, North and South. I think there is room there for a number of positive projects that could be done across the...

Future of Regional Pre-Hospital Emergency Care: Motion [Private Members] (1 Mar 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: While I was raising this subject with the Taoiseach yesterday, there were some young girls present from Sancta Maria College in Louisburgh. Two of them told me afterwards about the impact that the absence of a fit for purpose ambulance service in Mayo has had on them. One told me about her sister having an anaphylactic shock and that she had to be rushed to hospital in a car, while the...

Credit Union (Amendment) Bill 2022 [Seanad]: Second Stage (28 Feb 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: This Bill is the first substantive credit union legislation since 2011 and a first step in delivering the commitments in the programme for Government for credit unions. They have been waiting for that for a long time. That said, the Bill will require substantial amendments if we are to get this legislation for this vitally important sector and make the most of the wonderful national and...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committees (28 Feb 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: This evening, Sinn Féin will table a motion calling on the Government to address the deterioration of ambulance services. This is nowhere more evident than in my own county of Mayo.

We need...

Ceisteanna - Questions: European Council (28 Feb 2023)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I wish to ask the Taoiseach about the Government's plan to implement a windfall tax. I am seeking clarity on the matter because I have been unable to get a straight answer from the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan. When I submitted written questions to the Minister in December, he seemed to rule out bringing in a windfall tax on electricity companies despite the record profits. A couple of...
