- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Shoplifting: Discussion (13 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I thank all the witnesses for taking the time to come in today. I am conscious that it is obviously a very busy time of the year, but it is also timely that they are here, particularly in light of what happened three weeks ago tomorrow in Dublin city centre. That was rioting and looting, but the issue of shoplifting and attacks on shops is not just confined to Dublin. It is right across the...

Marie Sherlock: I thank Mr. Dunne. Would Mr. O'Driscoll like to comment?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Shoplifting: Discussion (13 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I thank Mr. O'Driscoll. It is important to let Mr. Fee speak as well because I do not want to have a total Dublin-centric focus. It is important to get the Dundalk perspective.

- Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Waste Management (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I thank the Minister of State for coming to the House. The results of the EPA report on the circular economy and waste statistics that were published last week very much threw into sharp light just how much needs to be done with regard to what can be recycled and what is being recycled in Ireland. In fact, the report shows that Ireland is going backwards, not forwards, with regard to...
- Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Waste Management (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I am supportive of all the initiatives the Minister of State outlined. However, a piece of the jigsaw is missing. We are talking to the people who want to do more, but there are people who feel they cannot do more, for a variety of reasons, or will not do more. This is not about the individual, rather, this is about the overall provision of services. At the moment, local authorities are...
- Seanad: Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Committee Stage (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I move amendment No. 6: In page 23, between lines 21 and 22, to insert the following: “(5) Nothing in this section confers on a member of Garda personnel a power that he or she does not have by virtue of another enactment (including other provisions of this Act) or at common law.”. I withdraw the amendment with the right to resubmit on Report Stage.
- Seanad: Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Committee Stage (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I move amendment No. 7: In page 23, to delete line 27 and substitute the following: “(i) independently, impartially and in accordance with law,”. Section 4 sets out the policing principles. Our amendment is very basic and simple but is important and needs to be said nonetheless. The principle is that policing services are to be provided independently, impartially and in...
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I thank everyone for coming for this hearing today. I, too, join with Deputies O'Sullivan and Munster, along with the Chair, in expressing that frustration in terms of representatives from X not appearing here today. This is really my first question. I have read the statements carefully and listened to what the witnesses said about the efforts they are making across all four platforms, as...
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I suppose the issue is that it is not working. We saw some of the content that was on Facebook. We spoke about what was on WhatsApp. We have seen what is on TikTok. The efforts do not go far enough.
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: Okay. TikTok might come in on this question.
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: What if I am interested in hate?
- Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion (6 Dec 2023)
Marie Sherlock: That engagement and that filtering process requires a lot of engagement from a TikTok user. Some very young users, and even older users as well, would not necessarily be able to navigate that. We are very much reliant on individuals. I am almost out of time but I have one other question that I would like to ask after Google has answered this question.
- Seanad: Recent Violence in Dublin City Centre: Motion (29 Nov 2023)
Marie Sherlock: I thank the Minister for coming to the Chamber. I pay tribute to all those who came to the aid of the victims of the horrendous events that took place last Thursday - Leanne, the other crèche worker and the teacher who were there with the children, Caio Benicio for his bravery in bringing down the attacker, and Siobhan Kearney for her incredible presence of mind, so justice will now be...
