Prohibition of the Exploration and Extraction of Onshore Petroleum Bill 2016: Second Stage [Private Members] (27 Oct 2016)

Catherine Connolly: I never thought that I would reach the stage where my inspiration and renewed faith in the political process would come from a Fine Gael Deputy. I have to place on the record that it does. I hope to be continuously surprised. I thank Deputy McLoughlin for giving me that hope. I listened to and participated in the earlier debate on climate change and will not repeat what I said then....

Questions on Proposed Legislation (27 Oct 2016)

Catherine Connolly: This morning, the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment, Deputy Denis Naughten, confirmed that we would ratify the Paris Agreement, COP 21, on 4 November. He also committed to producing the mitigation plan before the end of the year. We have serious obligations in that context on public transport.

Questions on Proposed Legislation (27 Oct 2016)

Catherine Connolly: It comes under public transport in regard to emissions.

With the greatest of respect to Deputy Danny Healy-Rae, the Sarah Palin type of politics is over. That debate is gone. The debate is no longer on whether our emissions are having an effect: it is on the severity of the impact and...

Catherine Connolly: I welcome the commentary from ISME in regard to rural transport and what it is seeking for in that regard. Perhaps a member of ISME would elaborate on the French and Austrian Alpine solution and the free bus. The issue of procurement has been raised. I, too, would welcome some elaboration on that issue. As stated by my colleague, Deputy Cannon, Galway city is booming on one level but...
