Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Withdrawal from Irish Banking Market (Resumed): Engagement with Financial Services Union and Electric Ireland (25 May 2022)

Pearse Doherty: I appreciate that. When representatives from Bank of Ireland, AIB, KBC and Ulster Bank appeared before the committee they told us about the number of staff they were hiring. As Mr. O'Connell said, it is quite opaque because the number being hired included people who had been there for a couple of years and were being transferred from contracts that really should be counted as full time...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Legislative Measures (24 May 2022)

Pearse Doherty: Small business and community groups across the State continue to suffer from unaffordable insurance. The Action Plan for Insurance Reform committed that proposals to rebalance the duty of care would be brought to the Oireachtas by amending the Occupiers' Liability Act and Civil Liability Act and that these measures would be brought before Government by June 2021.

Pearse Doherty: A further proposal is to insert provisions regarding voluntary assumption of risks into the Occupiers' Liability Act. Its aim is to prevent plaintiffs from bringing claims where they have knowingly or willingly put themselves into a position that could lead to harm and injury to themselves.

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 May 2022)

Pearse Doherty: Families are in the grip of a cost-of-living crisis. Those who were planning to holiday in Ireland this summer are being asked to think again as they are faced with sky-high accommodation costs.

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 May 2022)

Pearse Doherty: Medical scientists have been waiting for 20 years for the Government to turn up and deliver. They do not need plaudits. They do not need applause. What they need is a government to step up to the plate, recognise the invaluable work they do in the health service and recognise all of the work that they have done over the past number of years. They have been waiting 20 years for a...
