Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 102: National Asset Management Agency Second Progress Report (20 Sep 2018) Marc MacSharry: I have one last question, but before I ask it I wish to clarify something. I put all these matters on the record at previous meetings when we decided on a course of action. It is all there, so it is not new. Yes, of course I speak for myself. One thirteenth of the view of this committee is mine and I put it out there. The last report of this committee was published in January and one...

- Future of the Post Office Network: Motion (18 Sep 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I welcome Tom O'Callaghan from the Independent Postmasters Group and representatives of Save Ballinfull Post Office in north Sligo, who are in the Gallery and represent the many protestors who were outside the House today. Increasingly, the Minister and his colleagues look more like chairmen of a GAA club. They get to stand in for the photo on ceremonial occasions and say a few words but...
- Future of the Post Office Network: Motion (18 Sep 2018)
Marc MacSharry: We represent communities. We decide on their behalf what services they are provided with and where they are provided. That is the Minister's responsibility and he has abdicated it. He talks of a 19th century model being modernised. What is his plan? Is it to put everybody into a city? We have a culture in this country where people live in communities. Our responsibility in this House...
- Topical Issue Debate: Vaccine Damage Compensation Scheme (11 Jul 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I ask that the Minister of State seek with the Department of Finance, through the NTMA and the SCA, to desist from costly defences in these cases, engage and offer immediate mediation, and put in place an appropriate compensation scheme for the girls and boys, young women and young men-----

- Topical Issue Debate: Vaccine Damage Compensation Scheme (11 Jul 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I thank the Ceann Comhairle for selecting this matter for discussion and I welcome the Minister of State at the Department of Health, Deputy Daly, to the House. This matter relates to issues arising in regard to the Pandemrix vaccination for swine flu some years ago, but I want to put on record my unequivocal support for vaccination when vaccines are available. That said, my ambition is to...
- Topical Issue Debate: Vaccine Damage Compensation Scheme (11 Jul 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I thank the Minister of State for his reply but it does not answer the questions. I am informed that the State Claims Agency has spent €2 million rigorously defending discovery alone in cases. Have we learned nothing from more recent crises involving people who have lost their lives or will lose their lives? Ministers need to take a much more hands-on role in regard to how the State...
- Topical Issue Debate: Protected Disclosures (10 Jul 2018)
Marc MacSharry: In order that there can be no doubt, I can testify that the whistleblower is sane, highly competent and skilled in the area of governance and that she was thrown under the bus. I will give the email to which Deputy Alan Kelly referred to the Minister of State as soon as I conclude in order that she will definitely have it. We need to start by paying the person's salary and backdating it....
- Topical Issue Debate: Protected Disclosures (10 Jul 2018)
Marc MacSharry: The vice president of Cork Institute of Technology said the college attempted to engage but that the individual did not engage. That is a lie, quite frankly. This person went to the chair of the board of CIT, the chairman of the audit committee, the vice president of strategy, the head of the school and faculty, the vice president and the registrar. All these approaches occurred in 2012...
