Paul Murphy: I get another go, do I not?
- Payment of Wages (Amendment) (Tips and Gratuities) Bill 2022: Committee and Remaining Stages (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: Thanks very much, a Cheann Comhairle, or you could give it to the other Deputy Murphy if you want. I will have to read carefully around section 4F when the Tánaiste is next speaking, given the points he has raised. He is saying the regulations will apply in circumstances where the payment of tips typically applies in a section of the economy, but that is not the case, or not...

Paul Murphy: Okay. I will withdraw it.
- Payment of Wages (Amendment) (Tips and Gratuities) Bill 2022: Committee and Remaining Stages (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: I move amendment No. 4: In page 6, lines 18 and 19, to delete “by an electronic mode of payment” and substitute “, including by an electronic mode of payment”. The purposes of this - there are a number of amendments that are very similar - is to say this should not just apply to tips that are paid by electronic modes of payment, in other words, credit or debit...
- Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Strategies (13 Jul 2022)

- Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Strategies (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: 15. To ask the Taoiseach his views on the national reform programme for the European semester 2022 that was published by his Department in April 2022. [26005/22]
- Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Strategies (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: I want to ask the Taoiseach about the growing crisis in education in Dublin, where many schools are reporting that teachers are leaving to find positions in other parts of the country because they cannot afford to rent or the price of buying homes in Dublin. One Dublin school has reported that six teachers have left to work outside of Dublin, where accommodation costs are not as high. Some...

- Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: It sounds like the discussion about solidarity with Ukraine took up a fair amount of time during the talks with Prime Minister Rutte. In that context, did the Taoiseach and the Prime Minister speak about the crucial issue of debt relief for Ukraine or are they happy for money to continue to flood out of Ukraine to pay for unsustainable and odious debts? Debt repayments this year amount to...

- Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: Often, when US imperialism is criticised in here, the Taoiseach is quite sensitive about it, it might be fair to say. It appears he thinks the US is a force for good and for human rights and democracy around the world. In that context, I wonder if he saw the interview with John Bolton on CNN yesterday. John Bolton is a senior figure of the US political establishment, a former US Under...
- Rent Reduction Bill 2022: Second Stage [Private Members] (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: Yesterday, when questioned about this at Leaders' Questions , the Taoiseach said if we passed this Bill to reduce rents for ordinary people, there would be no landlords left in Ireland. Across the country, thousands, maybe tens of thousands, of people who are struggling to pay €2,000 or €2,500 of rent per month and others who live at home well into their late 20s or 30s because...
- Rent Reduction Bill 2022: Second Stage [Private Members] (13 Jul 2022)
Paul Murphy: All across the House. The vast majority of the landlords are on the Fianna Fáil-Fine Gael side and among the Independents who voted with the Government. If those landlords absented themselves tonight, as they should, and said it is too much to do with them, will impact their income and that it is clearly inappropriate for them to vote, there is every chance this Bill would pass. It...
