Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (14 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: The Taoiseach says he is not in panic mode but it does sound like he is panicking-----

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (14 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: -----and he is yet to answer my question on when the Government will produce its housing plan. It is still delayed. There is acknowledging the role of the private sector, which we do, and then there is completely and utterly relying on it, which is what the Government does. The Government goes far beyond acknowledging the role of the private sector and goes to the extent of paying...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (14 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: I will ask my question again: is the Government going to do anything different in this plan, and when will it produce it?

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (14 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: This Government is clearly in panic mode. Its new housing plan was supposed to be published in July and there is still no sign of it. Instead, what we have seen is a succession of measures that all have one common feature: throwing more public money at developers in the desperate hope that the market will deliver. We have been here before and we know how it ends - soaring house prices...

Financial Resolutions 2025 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (8 Oct 2025)

Instead, I appeal to the two Ministers of State present to relay that to the Taoiseach and...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (8 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: I should not be surprised by this Government's approach to the budget. Time and time again, we have seen Fianna Fáil's and Fine Gael's approach to these things. It is just that no matter what, it is hard to understand how, at a time when the number of children living in consistent poverty doubled last year, the Government chose not to introduce a second tier of child benefit. I...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (8 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: On the cost of disability-----

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (8 Oct 2025)

Holly Cairns: How much the Taoiseach ignored disability in his reply is representative of how much it has been ignored in the budget. The Disability Federation of Ireland said it too; the Taoiseach does not have to take my word for it. It described the budget as a betrayal of disabled people, stripping away vital supports and deepening poverty. I recognise there was increased funding in the budget for...
