Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (14 Mar 2019)

Mark Daly: I support my colleagues on the taking of the fisheries Bill. It needs to be done correctly. While the delay is unbelievable, it does not mean we should rush without proper consideration. On the news out of Derry this morning and the decision by the British establishment to make a scapegoat of one soldier, the order for what happened in Derry in 1972 went way up the chain of command. We...

Mark Daly: I join others in congratulating the Tánaiste on his hard work and that of his officials. We all support their efforts.

I also congratulate Mr. Horan on being the first genuine Dub to be president of the GAA. As coincidence would have it, Mickey...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Jan 2019)

Mark Daly: I propose an amendment to the Order of Business that No. 20, which is leave to publish the national anthem Bill, be taken before No. 1. We approach the 110th anniversary of the composition of "The Soldier's Song" which was later translated into "Amhrán na bhFiann". As a key symbol of our State, it is worthy of protection and respect. Other key symbols such as the flag are provided for...

Mark Daly: My query relates to governance, the risk register and the fact that I could not find certain information. Perhaps Mr. O'Leary could answer the question around the issue of the risk register and how the risk committee has been looking at the issue in terms of governance. Whatever about not wanting to talk about it from a political point of view, and there may be valid reasons for this, from...
