Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Corporate Governance Framework of the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport: Discussion (23 Jan 2019)

Mark Daly: We will ask all members to visit County Kerry also. If Eamon de Valera had done his work, we would perhaps have got Berehaven, Cobh, Lough Swilly and Rosslare. It was an oversight. We might resolve the issue.

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Drugs Crime (20 Dec 2018)

Mark Daly: I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Catherine Byrne, for coming to the House. Councillor Paul McAuliffe has asked that the Taoiseach would come and see for himself the effects of crack cocaine use in Ballymun, which reached a crisis point this summer. He wants a cross-departmental task force to be organised to address the issue. Over the past year there has been an increase in crime,...

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Drugs Crime (20 Dec 2018)

Mark Daly: I realise the Minister could not be here and I appreciate the Minister of State coming in on her behalf. The Minister of State outlined the issues around the funding and purpose of the Ballymun Regional Youth Resource and the Poppintree Youth Project. However, we were talking about restoring funding to 2008 levels, whereas the Minister of State referred to the funding available in 2011,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Returning Irish Emigrants: Discussion (29 Nov 2018)

Mark Daly: I apologise for having to leave to attend another meeting. I thank our guests for all their work. I realise that my colleagues have asked a lot of questions and I ask our guests to feel free to point out if I ask one which has already been posed. I will refer to the minutes. The Minister of State, Deputy Cannon, has done a great deal of work in the review. I refer to the implementation...

Mark Daly: I ask Mr. King to send me a note on the matter and I will request that the Oireachtas Library and Research Service look into it. Some 95% of laws enacted in Ireland each year are EU regulations and directives. The Minister has the power to amend those regulations. The answer might be to outline to the Minister that all that is required is for him to sign a statutory instrument to extend...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Defence Forces: Discussion (15 Nov 2018)

Mark Daly: As a former member of the Fórsa Cosanta Áitiúil, FCÁ, I am fiercely proud of my badge. My services were never called upon, thankfully. The one admission I will make to the Chief of Staff is that the boots were used for a lot of farming down in Kerry. If there are any recriminations, I am willing to face disciplinary hearings, of which I had a number recently. I pay...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Defence Forces: Discussion (15 Nov 2018)

Mark Daly: The point I am making is that there are people who do not want a referendum as an outcome of all of this. I am sure a plan is being put in place for this scenario. I apologise for not being here when my colleagues asked questions about bread and butter issues like terms and conditions. Some of the concerns about the establishment of an EU army and the benefits of being in EU operations...

Seanad: Disclosures Tribunal Report: Statements (23 Oct 2018)

Mark Daly: I thank the Minister for coming to the House to outline the issues addressed in the Charleton report. I will not go into the detail but one point seems to have been lost in this discussion of what happened to Sergeant McCabe, his family and the other whistleblowers. The Minister echoed the words of Othello when he described Sergeant McCabe as having done the State some service. To quote...
