Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (17 Jan 2019)

Mattie McGrath: Yesterday, I received an email from the general manager of the Freight Transport Association Ireland related to Brexit. It has been writing to the Tánaiste for two years seeking a meeting. With all that is going on, including the exercise with 90 lorries in England, it is astounding that he has not met representatives from this association. How can he understand the real fears of many...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: National Children's Hospital (16 Jan 2019)

Mattie McGrath: I am not surprised by the Minister of State's response. It is as clear as the nose on one's face that the money will not be available for projects such as that at South Tipperary General Hospital, Limerick hospital and many other locations. It is galling to have to endure the belated and disingenuous bleating of all the other groupings and main political parties in the Dáil, when those...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: National Children's Hospital (16 Jan 2019)

Indeed, the Rural Independent Group tabled a Private Member's motion in the House a month before the decision was made to go ahead...
