An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Simon Harris: I thank Deputy Nash for raising this important matter. I am very eager to meet with that group. I am very happy to do so and I intend to do it in the month of June. Shona McManus introduced its members to me last week and the Deputy has rightly raised this issue on several occasions as well. I thank him for doing that. I am very eager that we invest more in Drogheda. We have a good...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Holly Cairns: Public dental services have been completely abandoned by successive health Ministers. Every child in this country should have three free check-ups during primary school, but waiting lists have got so long that some children are not being seen until they are in transition year. The number of dentists with a public contract has plummeted from 1,450 in 2012 to only about 600 today. On top...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: The Deputy should let the Taoiseach answer.

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Simon Harris: I thank the Chair. We are very much looking forward to debating it because of the position held by those Deputies who believe we can go it alone in a global migration crisis. It is a legitimate position for them to hold; it is just wrong. I look forward to debating it with the Deputies and explaining to them why we believe operating at EU level makes sense. When it comes to migration,...

Gary Gannon: I am laughing because the Taoiseach is going to vote for Ursula von der Leyen

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Simon Harris: I would appreciate the Deputy not laughing at me because I raise this on behalf of the people of Ireland very regularly, including at every single engagement I have with the President of the Commission and EU leaders at the European Council and in every possible forum. Our position is that the human rights clauses in the trade agreement are not in it just to expand the text and should mean...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Gary Gannon: I would like to understand if it took the Taoiseach by surprise when the International Criminal Court prosecutor Karim Khan announced charges against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant? The first point around which they are building a case is the use of starvation of civilians as a weapon war. I really want to understand the Government's...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Mattie McGrath: I wish to raise with the Taoiseach and the Chief Whip the lack of business being transacted this week. Where has the debate on the EU migration pact gone? Everyone knows that the European elections and local elections are due to take place. The pact was due back from committee in the first week of May and was supposed to have been disposed of by the House by 9 May, as we were told. It has...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Thomas Pringle: Like many other Deputies and many members of the public, I was shocked to see the Israeli ambassador at the Famine commemoration at the weekend. This was a political decision on the part of the Government. Having the Israeli ambassador commemorating the Famine as Israel is busy committing genocide in the occupied territories was pure hypocrisy. We need to have a debate on this matter. We...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: Three weeks ago, a number of Deputies and I pointed to the need for statements on the situation at University Hospital Limerick, UHL, and the significant overcrowding that happens there on a daily basis. The Taoiseach mentioned at the time that he was going to raise the matter with the Business Committee. I am not represented at the Business Committee, but so far I have not noticed any...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 May 2024)

Simon Harris: I will begin with Deputy Wynne's question. We are very happy and eager to have statements in this House in respect of UHL. When I last responded on this issue, I suggested the opportune time may be when the Frank Clarke report is received by the Minister this month, but I am in the hands of the Business Committee on this. The Government is happy to allow time. I just believe it would be...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (21 May 2024)

Richard O'Donoghue: I am not a climate change denier. I know we need energy, but I also know that we need people to enjoy this country and have the opportunity to enjoy the future. Nobody should be left behind. New South Wales in Australia issued an energy noise guidance at 35 dB LA90. This is designed to protect people's health. The Government here continues to allow 45 dB LA90, or double the loudness....
