- Judicial Appointments Commission Bill 2017: Second Stage (Resumed) (29 Jun 2017)
Timmy Dooley: I add my voice to the welcome for the Secretary General. I believe it will take more than putting a snout to the bottom of the barrel and fortifying oneself with the flesh in the barrel. The Minister will need a full metal jacket when he knocks on the doors of the people of south County Dublin. From speaking with people who have contacted me recently on issues that relate to them, I do...

- Other Questions: National Mitigation Plan (27 Jun 2017)
Timmy Dooley: The Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Act 2015 specified that the Government of the day must periodically publish a national mitigation plan outlining Ireland's path to a low-carbon future. It is an important piece of cross-departmental planning, something that is clearly crucial if it we are serious about making a transition to a low-carbon economy and society. The national...
- Other Questions: National Mitigation Plan (27 Jun 2017)
Timmy Dooley: It appears there will be an ongoing discussion among Ministers but could the Minister give a timeframe or, if possible, a date on when the plan will be published? It is great news to hear about the things that are going right but the Minister must focus on what is not. While I accept that the agriculture piece is going well, that was before the Minister's time in the Department and he...

- Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Priority Questions: Electric Vehicles (27 Jun 2017)
Timmy Dooley: If it gets any worse, the remainder of the reply is not worth listening to. If the Minister was serious about addressing the crisis in the transport sector vis-à-visemissions and getting electric vehicles on the road, he would be doing a lot more in terms of incentivising than running a road show around the country. People need serious incentives. There was an action plan in 2014...

- Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Priority Questions: Electric Vehicles (27 Jun 2017)
Timmy Dooley: It all sounds great but the simple question is what target the Minister will hit by the end of the year. The target set back in 2014 was for 50,000 vehicles to be on the road by 2020. At best, there will be 6,000 or 7,000 electric vehicles on the road by 2020. If the Minister thinks it is worthwhile mentioning that he will hit some notional target for electric vehicles by the end of this...
