Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rehabilitative Opportunities within the Prison System: Discussion (29 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Yes, that is my point.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rehabilitative Opportunities within the Prison System: Discussion (29 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I could not agree more. I know I am over time, but we are using a custodial model as the only model that is available, notwithstanding how good it is, for somebody who has stolen sandwiches repeatedly, whose children have been separated into various care facilities or care solutions, who has not committed a violent offence, who has been the victim of violence, including sexual violence and...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rehabilitative Opportunities within the Prison System: Discussion (29 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I neglected earlier to acknowledge victims in this context, as we should always do. I appreciate that Mr. Mullins did, but I did not and I should have. I support the call for the refurbishment of some of the houses in the Dóchas Centre. A quick paint job would not do any harm, although I appreciate he is working on that as a matter of urgency. I wish to return to a point Mr....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rehabilitative Opportunities within the Prison System: Discussion (29 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Very few prisoners are at the 40-year stage but there are some high-profile prisoners who have served extremely long, perhaps disproportionately long, sentences. For whatever reason, it appears to be very difficult to let them go at this point. It is about putting a measure of certainty and equity around this in some way.

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I read today in the media that Revolut will launch deposit accounts for Irish customers. There is a lot of change in the banking sector at present. In light of this and the impending departure of Ulster Bank and KBC from the Irish market, I would be obliged if the Minister would give us a status update on the review being undertaken into the retail banking sector, particularly as we head...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Domestic, Sexual and Gender-based Violence (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: The Deputy does not in any way need me to back her up on this. I was in Carlow–Kilkenny on Monday and met the various groups, including Carlow Women's Aid and the Carlow and South Leinster Rape Crisis Centre. They are so much further ahead than Tusla in their work, in what they have identified, in what they can deliver and in the speed at which they can deliver. What the Deputy says...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ukraine War (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: 306. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the system that is in place for persons in Ireland who wish to open up their home to Ukrainians fleeing conflict; the way in which persons can access information about how they can help; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13371/22]

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I thank our guests for coming before the committee. It is great to have the opportunity to engage with them. My apologies for leaving the meeting; I had to attend the Dáil Chamber for questions. I wish to ask about the offshore renewable energy sector in particular. Where are we in that regard? Where are the opportunities? What escalation has there been from the perspective of...

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: May I interject? I ask Mr. Meally to address planning on the east coast, in particular the fixed wind turbines off the east coast and those different models, one of which is in my area, Dún Laoghaire.

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: When does Mr. Meally expect those projects to be functional, assuming things go through as planned?

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: How has the engagement been? Some of the feedback I am getting is that it is all very well planning ahead but the connection points are not there yet and are not being paced in the same way. Does Mr. Meally have a concern in that regard?

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Does Mr. Meally think there will be-----

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Does Mr. Meally think there are any issues in fully utilising the energy through the current national grid? Does it need to be upgraded? How much upgrading needs to be done? Do we have the capacity in the grid to utilise what is possible even in the period up to 2030? I will come to-----

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: There is much discussion in the industry of when floating turbines may come. What is Mr. Meally's perception of that? The opportunity off the west coast is without parallel. All the briefing documents, including the documents on SEAI's website, the 2011 to 2050 strategy, show that the opportunity is without parallel. That document from 2011 suggests that in the period from 2020 to 2030,...

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: It is an extraordinary opportunity.

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I got a briefing from the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage which anticipated it being commercially viable by 2037 and that has been pulled back repeatedly. I might put this question to the Department. I am hearing from Irish-backed operators who are operating throughout Europe that Ireland is not ready in terms of grid. It is not ready in terms of strategy. It is not...

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: What measures specifically?

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I might put ask Mr. Walsh as I am short on time.

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I agree. That is why I am asking Mr. Walsh. I think the opportunity is extraordinary. Given that the pace has increased commercially, which is what we are hearing from industry, and that sentiment is changing regarding offshore wind not because of the climate imperative but because of the energy security difficulties that we have, there is an enormous opportunity. I see it changing in my...

Public Accounts Committee: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (24 Mar 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: That helps even more.
