International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Motion (Resumed) (19 Jun 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to talk about this migration pact. I am totally opposed to this pact, as are most people in the country. In the council elections a few weeks ago, the biggest issue was immigration. The people do not the trust the Ministers with this pact.

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Minister of State for the reply but with regard to a lot of the stuff he said, we know what happens and what is supposed to happen but it has not been happening in Kerry.

In recent times, the families of three very...

Planning and Development Bill 2023: Report Stage (Resumed) (12 Jun 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am very concerned about the whole process we are going through here tonight. It clearly does not demonstrate any genuine will to help people to get planning permission in rural areas. Indeed, there is little to suggest there is any help forthcoming for people who want to build in urban areas. With regard to the two points I highlighted previously, there are amendments that propose...
