Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) (2 Dec 2014)

Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach did not answer the two questions I put to him. One was whether, in light of the threat to the local development sector and the concerns raised by many in local rural communities, and particularly the questions from the European Commission, the Government was willing to review its programme for rural development from 2014 to 2020. Perhaps he will take the opportunity to answer...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) (2 Dec 2014)

Gerry Adams: While welcoming the appointment of an Irish Commissioner to this EU agriculture post, I have to say I continue to have grave concerns about many of the actions of Commissioner Hogan when he was a Government Minister here. I am also highly critical of the method of selection of Commissioners. Right across the EU, citizens want a social Union, but the Commission and the way the Commissioners...

Leaders' Questions (2 Dec 2014)

Gerry Adams: I am taking the Taoiseach's answer as meaning that we will have an emergency debate next week. If that is the case, it is welcome, but it is very unfortunate that it comes after the Government has published its housing policy. That strategy is fatally flawed. It does not provide any response to the current homelessness crisis. It says nothing about the crucial issue of rent supplement...

Leaders' Questions (2 Dec 2014)

Gerry Adams: Answer my question.

Leaders' Questions (2 Dec 2014)

Gerry Adams: People were shocked by the death yesterday of Jonathan Corrie in a doorway less than 50 yards from this House. Our thoughts are with Mr. Corrie's family and loved ones. The Taoiseach stated he was distressed to hear of Mr. Corrie's death and I am sure that is true. However, I and others have been raising for ages the Government's failure to tackle the housing crisis. He should not be...

Gerry Adams: 428. To ask the Minister for Health if he will review the case of a person (details supplied) in County Louth who has been waiting more than ten months for cataract surgery; if hospitals may send individuals for treatment abroad in circumstances where they have been waiting in excess of the eight-month maximum wait time target; if this person may be considered for such action; and if he will...

Order of Business (26 Nov 2014)

Gerry Adams: I too extend best wishes to the new Garda Commissioner. She will have many challenges. I encourage the Government to bring forward legislation on the independent policing authority with all speed.

Death of Former Member: Expressions of Sympathy (26 Nov 2014)

Gerry Adams: Ba mhaith liom mo chomhbhrón a dhéanamh le clann Ted Nealon. Ní raibh aithne pearsanta agam ar Ted ach léigh mé an leabhar a scrígh sé, go háirithe Nealon's Guide, agus chonaic mé é agus an tUasal Brian Farrell ar RTE. Mar a dúirt an Taoiseach agus daoine eile, mar Theachta Dála agus saoránach, rinne Ted Nealon obair...

Leaders' Questions (26 Nov 2014)

Gerry Adams: Big people do not know how to govern. The children in Monaghan could tell the Taoiseach that.

Leaders' Questions (26 Nov 2014)

Gerry Adams: The Taoiseach says he is listening to people but he is not listening to people. He does not listen to the Opposition in here nor does he listen to people on the streets. He was forced into a partial U-turn on this issue so that shows people that people power is working. The Taoiseach had an opportunity to get rid of water charges and people know that so they are not fooled because he did...

Leaders' Questions (26 Nov 2014)

Gerry Adams: Irish Water spends nearly €1 million every month on advisers. The Taoiseach talked about clarity. Where is the clarity about this? How much is Ervia spending on media advisers? How much is Irish Water paying? Instead of muddying the waters with these untruthful allegations, will the Taoiseach tell me why these costs are concealed from the public? Why can the public not know what...
