Vote 22 - Courts Service (Revised)
Vote 24 - Justice (Revised)
Vote 41 - Policing Authority (Revised)
Vote 44 - Data Protection Commission (Revised) (30 Mar 2021)

Thomas Pringle: I thank the Chairman for allowing me to contribute. I thank the Minister for her breakdown of the Vote. In her opening statement, she referred to provision in the ICT budget for equipment in vehicles. I had the experience - I do not know whether I would call it the pleasure - of being stopped by the PSNI in the North. The officers were able to check my car on their computer and tell me it...

Vote 44 - Data Protection Commission (Revised) (30 Mar 2021)

Thomas Pringle: My question relates to A7, compensation. There is a 14.5% increase on what was budgeted. From the Minister's response to the last question, I take it that this can be budgeted but whether that will all be used depends on the outturn at different stages. This means that the 2020 Estimate on this item is €9.5 million. Does this mean that basically this is not an outturn figure either...

Vote 44 - Data Protection Commission (Revised) (30 Mar 2021)

Thomas Pringle: This is a bit confusing for me because €1.265 million is a 9.6% reduction. The Minister says that will not have an impact because the allocation was increased in the previous year. These Estimates do not mean anything so if that is the case. I cannot get my head around that. Are we saying the Minister does not expect that the €1.4 million will be spent so therefore the...

Residential Tenancies Bill 2021: Second Stage (Resumed) (25 Mar 2021)

Thomas Pringle: This Bill is the perfect example of Government spin. It is being hailed as the protection for renters during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, extending protections to 12 July 2021. However, what the Minister is not telling us is that it is an opportunity for the Government to strip rights from many renters in arrears but not affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. It is a short but dangerous...

Family Leave and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2021 [Seanad]: Second Stage (24 Mar 2021)

Thomas Pringle: I believe we may have gone out of order a bit but we will get on with it. I thank the Ceann Comhairle for the opportunity to contribute briefly on the Family Leave and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2021, which is before us today. Sometimes, the Government brings forward Bills with which one cannot disagree. Often, they are very belated but welcome nonetheless. This is one of those Bills....

Ceathrú Chultúir 1916 Bill 2021: Second Stage [Private Members] (24 Mar 2021)

Thomas Pringle: I thank the Acting Chairman for the opportunity to contribute to this debate. I will start by paying tribute to Deputy Ó Snodaigh for introducing this important Bill. Interestingly, the Government is using the usual tactic of accepting the Bill on Second Stage and sending it towards Committee Stage where it will probably stay and die a death. Instead of doing that or voting down the...
