- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: COP27: Discussion (25 Oct 2022)
Pauline O'Reilly: I thank the witnesses. I very much appreciate their expertise. I sometimes feel I am on an episode of “Ireland’s Fittest Family”, dragging people through the mud to the finish line in the context of climate change. The witnesses are quite right that the science relating to it is immutable. It is undeniable, yet still we do have a sense of denial here and around the...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Mental Health Supports in Schools and Tertiary Education: Discussion (Resumed) (25 Oct 2022)
Pauline O'Reilly: I thank the witnesses for their opening statements which I read in detail. I want to focus on two things. The first is the resources.

Nobody wants to hear that schools are not funded enough and that teachers do not get the kind of training they need. ...

Pauline O'Reilly: I thank the Minister. He mentioned the Citizens' Assembly. We should recognise that while we have done huge work as a committee, and we have done huge work in the Seanad and Dáil in passing an ambitious climate Act, that started with activists and with the citizens who gave the recommendations. It is appropriate that we hear from citizens on an ongoing basis. As the Minister said, the...
