- Higher Education Investment and Costs: Statements (2 Jun 2022)
Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank the Minister for his statement and I welcome this opportunity to debate higher education again. I was very encouraged earlier by the announcement of ring-fenced funding for autistic students. I know the Minister agrees that it should have been done years ago.

- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Energy Prices (2 Jun 2022)
Rose Conway-Walsh: I accept there are issues with the approach taken by Spain and Portugal and that other approaches have been put forward, such as windfall taxes. However, the core issue remains the same, namely, that gas cannot be allowed to set the price for all electricity if, as the Taoiseach said on Tuesday, we are entering into a new era of high energy prices. I agree we need to go from 40% to 80%...
