Seanad: Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person (Amendment) (Stalking) Bill 2021: Committee Stage (27 Jan 2022)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I echo the sentiments expressed by previous speakers. It is a good day when we see Private Members' legislation go through the House having been accepted by the Government. It reinforces the importance of this House. I commend my colleague, Senator Chambers, on all the work she has done to date. It results from her horror at hearing the stories put out by Una and Eve about their...

Seanad: Violence Against Women: Statements (27 Jan 2022)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: We have listened to many personal testimonies. It is fair to say that as women we have all experienced violence in our lives. It is incredible that we can all say that we have been a victim of violence. That is a really stark statistic - that half the population have been victims, yet it is almost seen as something acceptable. I am pleased we are having this debate, on foot of the murder...

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: Cuirim fáilte roimh gach éinne. Is iontach an rud é na finnéithe a fheiceáil os ár gcomhair seachas ar scáileán. Tá cur síos déanta ag an Aire sa ráiteas fada a chuir sé isteach maidir leis an meitheal a bhfuil curtha le chéile chun scrúdú a dhéanamh ar na fadhbanna a bhaineann le cúrsaí...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála Fisiciúla sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (Atógáil) (26 Jan 2022)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: An féidir liom an cheist a chríochnú? Tá sé práinneach agus impím ar an Aire cinneadh a dhéanamh ar cheist na hionadaíochta laistigh de sheachtain amháin. Impím air an cinneadh sin a dhéanamh mar tá sé práinneach.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála Fisiciúla sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (Atógáil) (26 Jan 2022)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: Tá easnamh mór ann gan an ionadaíocht sin agus impím ar an Aire an cinneadh sin a dhéanamh. An nglacann an tAire leis go bhfuil an córas pleanála reatha tar éis teip ar phobal na Gaeltachta agus go bhfuil ról an-tábhachtach aige seo i laghdú líon na gcainteoirí laethúil Gaeilge sa Ghaeltacht?

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála Fisiciúla sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (Atógáil) (26 Jan 2022)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: Bhíos ag tagairt go háirithe do na treoirlínte a bhaineann leis an gcóras sin. Is fadhb ollmhór í fadhb na tithíochta i gceantair Ghaeltachta. Chun í a réiteach, molaim an moladh ón Teachta Ó Muimhneacháin maidir leis na riachtanais áitiúla agus an teanga ag comhlíonadh na riachtanais sin. Táim an-sásta...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tithíocht agus Cúrsaí Pleanála Fisiciúla sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (Atógáil) (26 Jan 2022)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I will repeat that question. Does the Minister not accept that it is the obligation of this committee to go against planning applications that are in direct breach of this paragraph in the legislation? Perhaps Mr. Hogan could come in on that as well.

Seanad: Health and Criminal Justice (Covid-19) (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2021: Committee and Remaining Stages (15 Dec 2021)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I wish to speak briefly to this amendment. I want to respond because I cannot let some of the points made by Senator Keogan go unchallenged. The modelling is a new kind of method employed for a new disease. Modelling depends on human behaviour. Human behaviour differs from country to country and society to society. It is entirely incorrect to say that the modelling should be completely...

Seanad: Health and Criminal Justice (Covid-19) (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2021: Committee and Remaining Stages (15 Dec 2021)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: We have the Minister of State, Deputy Anne Rabbitte, with us. She is a Minister of State in the Department of Health.

Seanad: Health and Criminal Justice (Covid-19) (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2021: Committee and Remaining Stages (15 Dec 2021)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: Deputy Rabbitte is an excellent Minister of State. She is able, qualified and empowered under her seal of office to come in here and take amendments on health legislation. The Senator's comments are completely uncalled for. Of course the senior Minister, Deputy Donnelly, has interest in this legislation. The Minister has been in here on several occasions to discuss this matter and engage...

Seanad: Health and Criminal Justice (Covid-19) (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2021: Committee and Remaining Stages (15 Dec 2021)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I will make a brief comment on the booster campaign. I agree with Senator Conway that the enthusiasm shown for the booster campaign is very heartening. It was a great decision to reduce the period between the second and third doses of the vaccine. It should be available to all age cohorts. Some people are more enthusiastic about getting it than others. Some people work different hours so...
