Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (13 Jun 2019)

Dara Calleary: On Tuesday of this week, my colleague, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, raised the issue of Rebuilding Ireland home loans with the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government. Frankly, there are people on "Love Island" who know more about what is going on in the Irish housing market than the Minister, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, whose absolutely ridiculous responses on the Rebuilding Ireland home...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (13 Jun 2019)

Dara Calleary: There has been a good deal of debate in the House during recent days on the area of home help and the lack of, and curtailment of, home help hours and services throughout the country. There were questions during Leaders' Questions and there was a debate in the House last evening. Despite this, we are still no further on in terms of giving assurance to our constituents and the people we...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (13 Jun 2019)

Dara Calleary: I acknowledge the efforts of the Minister of State, Deputy Daly, and his commitment, but this is the reality of it. All of us in the Chamber have heard testimony from people whose hours are being cut. There is a perception that people have to die or leave the health service for new people to get home care and home help services. We are indeed conscious of the pressures on the health...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Health Services Staff (12 Jun 2019)

Dara Calleary: There is great concern over the figure of 12 beds as that is not the reality at the hospital. The HSE has stated to me that there are 18 support acute discharge beds and two additional short-stay beds in the hospital. There is demand for more beds, and if GPs were allowed to admit patients, there would be further demand. I gave the Minister the example where, with four beds free in the...

I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Jim Daly, for being in the Chamber and for his engagement on this issue over the past week. As the Minister of State is aware, on 31 May last, which was the Friday of the June bank holiday weekend, temporary and agency staff who are currently employed at Belmullet District...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions (Resumed): Arts and Culture Capital Scheme (12 Jun 2019)

Dara Calleary: I would like to intervene on this topic as well. Is the Minister giving any consideration to an ongoing programme of minor works for arts venues? Many such venues find that they do not have the money to do basic daily and annual maintenance. That builds up into a greater need for capital expenditure over time. In the context of the Arts Council review, will the Minister consider a minor...

Dara Calleary: Ba chóir don Aire Stáit leanúint ar aghaidh chun an cheist dheireanach a fhreagairt maidir leis an uair a fhoilseofar an Bille sin. An mbeidh sé foilsithe roimh dheireadh an tseisiúin seo agus an mbeidh seans againn dul go dtí an dara leath den seisiún seo leis an mBille seo? Tá sé cosúil leis an Nollaig. Tá sí fós ag teacht....

Dara Calleary: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire Stáit. Tuigeann gach duine tábhacht an Bhille seo agus céard atá istigh ann. Bhí cruinniú sa Teach againn leis an urlabhraí agus rinne an coiste tuarascáil an-láidir faoi. Bhí an tAire Stáit ag an gcruinniú sin, is dóigh liom gur mí Feabhra a bhí ann, agus bhí sé ag...

Dara Calleary: Beidh sé úsáideach go mbeidh cruinniú eile againn leis na hurlabhraithe. Cheap mé go raibh an cruinniú a bhí againn an-úsáideach agus tháinig an-eolas as. Maidir leis an obair atá déanta ag an Ard-Aighne agus ag an Roinn, an bhfuil a fhios ag an Aire Stáit an mbeidh seans ann go mbeidh cruinniú neamhfhoirmiúil againn...
