Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Architectural Heritage (13 Jun 2024)

Bernard Durkan: I thank the Ceann Comhairle for allowing me to raise this issue again and for permitting me to raise it on many occasions in the past. I also thank Minister of State from coming into the House to reply. I thank him for his work since his appointment in attempting to resolve this particular issue.

Neale Richmond: I thank all the Deputies for their contributions to this extremely important and worthwhile debate. I will address all the points and the questions raised, but there are a few things I would like to add in response as well. I do not think I will take the full 30 minutes.

Motor Insurance Insolvency Compensation Bill 2024: Second Stage (13 Jun 2024)

Joe Flaherty: I was in the Chamber this morning when Martin from the usher's team was congratulated on his retirement. I did not get an opportunity to speak then, but I want to congratulate you. You have given exemplary service, as do all the ushers. Twenty-two years here is a long time. If I get 22 years here, I will be very happy, but I think it will be harder for me to stay the 22 years. I welcome...

Motor Insurance Insolvency Compensation Bill 2024: Second Stage (13 Jun 2024)

Ruairi Ó Murchú: I believe the Minister of State and Deputy Doherty have dealt with a fair amount of the technicalities of this. Deputy Doherty has put questions in front of the Minister of State. I hope he will reply to on the publication of reports and that general idea of transparency, which we obviously all welcome. Beyond that, as much as we all welcome this legislation, there is the question...

Motor Insurance Insolvency Compensation Bill 2024: Second Stage (13 Jun 2024)

Pearse Doherty: Cuirim fáilte roimh an mBille. The legislation has been introduced and the Minister of State talked about its swift passage, but let us call a spade a spade.

The European Commission last month took the first step in infringement...
