- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of Taxi Regulation (Amendment) (Rickshaw) Bill 2018: Discussion (28 Nov 2018)
Imelda Munster: I thank the officials for their attendance. It is somewhat disappointing that the Minister, Deputy Ross, is not here. I welcome the regulations in regard to non-motorised rickshaws. They are very similar to those that Deputy Troy and I suggested. However, Ms Nic Lochlainn did not make clear in her opening statement why it will not be permissible for motorised rickshaws to be used as...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of Taxi Regulation (Amendment) (Rickshaw) Bill 2018: Discussion (28 Nov 2018)
Imelda Munster: Going back to the motorised rickshaw for personal use, my question was how one determines that. I do not know of anyone who would buy a rickshaw for personal use. They might have a car. How does one determine, monitor or enforce? If one is going to stop somebody, the first thing he or she will say is that it is for personal use. How does one determine whether there is someone beside them...

Imelda Munster: On one of the questions I had asked about the separate consultation process, when it became clear that the drivers had not engaged with the initial public consultation process, I was looking to see how many drivers engaged or was it rickshaw business owners who engaged? Going back to the fact that the Minister plans to ban the motorised rickshaws, regardless of motorised and non-motorised...

- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (27 Nov 2018)
Imelda Munster: Regarding Project Ireland 2040, I refer to yesterday's announcement of funding allocations under the urban regeneration and development funds and, first, I want to welcome the specific funding allocation for Dundalk's Long Walk Quarter. While the inclusion of Drogheda's Westgate Vision is very welcome I have serious concerns that no specific funding has been allocated to it despite the fact...

- Older People: Motion [Private Members] (21 Nov 2018)
Imelda Munster: I welcome the motion tabled by Fianna Fáil on the need to deliver a sustained and significant increase in investment in home supports and the provision of seven-day cover for older people. It is an issue that affects every county in the State, none more than my county of Louth. Fine Gael, with the Labour Party, the party's former partner in government, removed the 23 public long-term...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Facilities (21 Nov 2018)
Imelda Munster: That was some response. What it tells us is that the Minister is happy for plans, which have been in place for ten years, for an extension to the emergency department to proceed under his watch without an X-ray room. It is like building a house without a roof. How can the Minister stand over this? The Minister of State's reply was typical HSE spiel. He mentioned the 29 beds. They are...

Imelda Munster: This relates to the removal of the new X-ray room from plans for an extension to the accident and emergency department at Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda. When I raised the matter previously with the Taoiseach on the Order of Business he said he would refer it to the Minister for Health. I have since sent correspondence to the Minister but I have not had a response from either the...
