- Seanad Public Consultation Committee: Irish Compliance with International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights: Discussion (6 May 2014)
Paul Coghlan: Ms Quilligan is very welcome. I thought there was one Quilligan in Killarney or Tralee. I agree with the recommendation of the joint committee, of which I am not a member. Like Senator Cummins, I am interested in hearing what Ms Quilligan envisages should be the next step. On the wider issue, while I accept that Travellers are an ethnic minority, did this concept develop from practice...

Paul Coghlan: May I move on to the submission of the Irish Penal Reform Trust, IPRT? Ms Malone spoke of the separation of prisoners and the IPRT is particularly concerned by the number of children who are in Wheatfield Prison. I must confess that I am not familiar with the different prisons but does the trust require the State to go on a prison-building campaign? Is there not different segregation...

Paul Coghlan: I agree with Ms Malone about the rehabilitation and education where children are concerned, particularly those of a young age. Unfortunately, however, our society has more and more juvenile criminals who aim to become gangsters and who are following on lines no one would wish them to follow. While I accept what Ms Malone is saying, I refer to children of different ages. Where should...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Mortgage Arrears Resolution Process (Resumed): Central Bank of Ireland (30 Apr 2014)
Paul Coghlan: Professor Honohan is as welcome as ever. Given a lack of uniformity arising from the different treatment of mortgage arrears by the different financial institutions, I am particularly concerned about the unsavoury practices of those banks which are exiting the Irish market. Professor Honohan might want to comment on that. I think he has answered the other part of my question in answering...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Mortgage Arrears Resolution Process (Resumed): Central Bank of Ireland (30 Apr 2014)
Paul Coghlan: There are only about three institutions. It relates to more than mortgage arrears. I wrote a letter to the Chairman before the meeting so that the committee could discuss it in due course. I do not want to push Professor Honohan but I believe there are very unsavoury practices involved.

Paul Coghlan: While Senator Mooney spoke for my good friends opposite in Fianna Fáil, it is no harm to remind Members that Fianna Fáil has a recurring problem in dealing with its amnesia. I remind Members opposite that Fianna Fáil signed up to a four-year programme in 2010 and agreed with the troika that it would transfer water services to a water utility and that there would be a charge...
