Vote 31 - Transport, Tourism and Sport (Supplementary) (26 Nov 2013) Timmy Dooley: I welcome the Minister and his officials. In principle we do not have a problem with the Supplementary Estimate put forward. I will commence with speaking on parts with which I agree. I welcome the reallocation of €1 million to carry out the trial project to ascertain whether it would be possible to get more HGVs utilising the motorway net. That is helpful. The infrastructure has...
- Order of Business (26 Nov 2013)
Timmy Dooley: In light of the revelation that the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport was aware that problems existed with emergency beacons on sea-going vessels, will the Taoiseach arrange for an independent investigation into this matter? In doing so, he might consider having it carried out at the same time as the passage of the merchant shipping (registration of ships) Bill.

- Road Traffic Bill 2013: Second Stage [Private Members] (22 Nov 2013)
Timmy Dooley: I move: "That the Bill be now read a Second Time." There is a particular heartbreak to the family that is awoken by a late night knock on the door to inform them a family member was the victim of a hit-and-run incident. The flashing blue lights on a dark road lighting up the carnage of a collision are a grim sight for any loved one to bear. The shock and horror of such fatal road...

I am not foolish enough to think the issue can be...

For as long as I can remember we have talked about jobs and growth. They have been priorities for many Presidencies and are usually contained, either in the super text or subtext, in the priorities outlined at the...
