Gnó Comhaltaí Príobháideacha - Private Members' Business - Petroleum and Other Minerals Development (Amendment) (Climate Emergency Measures) Bill 2018: Motion (26 Mar 2019)

Gino Kenny: This is a pivotal moment in respect of climate change and the environment in Ireland. To try to stop this Bill would be unforgivable. The Government and its agents have done everything to subvert the democratic will of this House and this Bill. The skullduggery and tomfoolery of what is going on has been absolutely shocking. The process has been rigged from the very start to subvert that...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Traveller Education: Discussion (26 Mar 2019)

Gino Kenny: I will be very brief because most people have covered the questions and I do not want to be repetitive. I thank everybody for their very insightful presentations.

Gino Kenny: I am disappointed the Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, is not here. He seems to be the Scarlet Pimpernel of the Dáil these days. My question relates to the families who have to leave the jurisdiction to fill a medical cannabis prescription in Holland. It is an onerous and unworkable imposition. I await the reply.

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Cannabis for Medicinal Use (13 Mar 2019)

Gino Kenny: I am sure the Minister of State will agree that this situation which requires people to leave the jurisdiction to obtain a prescription is ludicrous. I cannot think of any other medicine in respect of which a patient or nominated person must travel to another jurisdiction to bring a filled prescription back. It becomes even more ludicrous. A family in Newtonards in County Down who have...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Cannabis for Medicinal Use (13 Mar 2019)

Gino Kenny: Most people listening to this discussion will not understand this. Given that 16 licences have been granted to 16 individuals in the State, one would think the State would intervene to provide a distribution company to go to Holland and bring the product to those 16 individuals' pharmacies. That would be the logical thing to do. Currently, the cost of reimbursing the travel and the...
