Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Northern Ireland (26 Oct 2022)

Paul Murphy: It appears that we are on the verge of the second Stormont election within six months. The DUP has used a boycott of Stormont to attempt to whip up sectarianism to stop its slide in the polls. The truth is that more and more people are seeing through its sectarian and Tory policies.

Paul Murphy: Stop kicking the can down the road. The Government has the report from July. It is very simple and it sets out the problems and the potential solutions.

Social and Affordable Housing Supply: Motion [Private Members] (26 Oct 2022)

Public Transport: Motion [Private Members] (25 Oct 2022)

Paul Murphy: I welcome many aspects of this motion, in particular the call for privatised routes to be renationalised. This should start immediately with the pathetic excuse for a service being inflicted on ordinary people by Go-Ahead Ireland. I have been inundated with complaints from people who have been stranded as a result of the No. 175 bus not turning up. Go-Ahead Ireland was recently fined...
