- Seanad: Forestry Bill 2013: Committee Stage (9 Oct 2014)
Mark Daly: I am sure the Minister of State is aware that there has been only one instance of a licence not being granted. If, however, somebody is going to commit his or her land to forestry for life, he or she will want to have some certainty in respect of the matter. As I understand it, the grounds on which a licence may not be granted relate to the protection of the environment; the ensuring of...
- Seanad: Forestry Bill 2013: Committee Stage (9 Oct 2014)
Mark Daly: I thank the Minister of State. He referred to regulations outlining the grounds on which compensation will either be paid or not paid.

- Seanad: Forestry Bill 2013: Committee Stage (9 Oct 2014)
Mark Daly: The legal advice appears to indicate that compensation might be payable.

- Seanad: Order of Business (9 Oct 2014)
Mark Daly: I thank the Cathaoirleach for his indulgence. Members have often criticised Israel here and have been lambasted as being anti-Israel and anti-Jewish. That is not the situation. Just because people criticise a country does not mean they are against it. They might rather be in favour of a peace process in Palestine. Just because Members might criticise the United States, that does not mean...
