Perhaps when they get the nomination, they might come back and visit us but we will take them up on their kind invitation and, hopefully, meet up in the future. We will now go into private session. Is that agreed? Agreed.
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla (Atógáil) - Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Wildlife Conservation (25 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: I am a bit disappointed with the response. I realise the Department will carry out an inquiry but we would probably like some answers on that inquiry. How long will it take, who will be interviewed, etc? The most important issue is for something positive to come from this catastrophe. What can we learn from this? We do not need an inquiry to know that one section of the council did not...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla (Atógáil) - Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Wildlife Conservation (25 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: The wetlands in Seán Walsh Memorial Park were a vibrant, multilayered ecosystem more by accident than design. There was a murder in the area and the Garda needed to dredge it. Silt was taken from the pond and put on grassland which over a couple of years fostered the creation of an ecosystem. I was one of those involved in clearing the lake, removing plastic bags and so on. I am...
- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (25 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: I wish to raise the Stardust fire of 38 years ago, in which 48 people were killed. Yesterday, families gathered outside the Attorney General's office expecting an announcement, which they had also expected over the summer months. These families have been seeking answers and an independent inquiry for a long time. They are getting older and they want answers now. I hope that the response...
- Written Answers — Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade: Ministerial Meetings (25 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: 51. To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if a report will be provided on his meeting with the Colombian Minister of Foreign Affairs in Dublin on 17 September 2019; if he offered further support from Ireland to the Colombian peace process; if concerns were raised regarding the increase in attacks and assassination of social and political leaders in Colombia; if he shared his...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces Medicinal Products (24 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: 10. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence the reason the Defence Forces increased spending on the anti-malaria drug, Lariam, by 50% in 2018, despite the fact that more than 85 soldiers are taking legal action against the Defence Forces over the devastating mental health side effects they claim they have suffered as a result of taking Lariam while serving abroad; if his attention has...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces Medicinal Products (24 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: The Minister of State has explained the increase in cost. I am concerned, however, that the Defence Forces still use Lariam. That is what baffles me. Other countries have stopped prescribing this drug and have apologised to the members of their respective defence forces for prescribing it to them in the first place. Why is Ireland not following suit? There are concerns regarding Lariam....
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Overseas Missions (24 Sep 2019)
Seán Crowe: We should not be offering up our troops for deployment in counter-terrorism operations under the guise of conflict management. There was a coup in the country. It is a high risk mission which has involved over 200 fatalities to date. As it is considered to be one of the United Nations' most dangerous missions, we need to talk about it in the House. Large-scale deployments such as this,...
