Seanad: Order of Business (29 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: On a point of order, I do not think the Taoiseach understands that or he is not accepting it.

Seanad: Order of Business (29 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: I did not come into the House to get Senator Coghlan's wisdom.

Seanad: Whistleblower Legislation: Motion (29 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: I welcome the Minister to the House. His actions give truth to the quote: The humblest citizen in all the land, when clad in the armour or a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error. It is curious that I find myself in the situation of a whistleblower in this House - I am glad that the House affords protection to me - credible and trustworthy information that I got from a...

Mark Daly: I wish to share time with Senators Reilly and Ó Domhnaill.

Seanad: School Transport: Statements (28 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: I welcome the Minister of State back to the House, which he is very familiar with. I do not envy him in the fact that he was in Kerry yesterday and explained the current situation. Everybody here knows of schools that are affected. Areas such as Réalt na Mara and Lauragh are particularly affected by the change. What is most disturbing is the fact that for 18 months prior to the budget...

Seanad: Order of Business (21 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: I propose an amendment to the Order of Business, that the Taoiseach attend the Chamber to discuss NAMA and his statement last week about his sources and what they told him. It is unusual that the Taoiseach agrees with me on concerns about developers buying back property. The Taoiseach has since rowed back but I maintain my position. My sources are willing to meet the Taoiseach to explain...

Seanad: Order of Business (21 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: I will, if the Taoiseach agrees to it. Fianna Fáil will propose the NAMA transparency Bill so that every asset under the control of NAMA, whether a loan or a property, will be on the NAMA website. In that way, any person in this country or beyond can see what NAMA is selling and how people can bid for it. I propose an amendment to the Order of Business requesting the Taoiseach attends the...

Seanad: Order of Business (21 Jun 2011)

Seanad: Order of Business (21 Jun 2011)

Seanad: Order of Business (7 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: I ask the Leader to bring the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Varadkar, before the House to discuss why the Irish Coast Guard Service has €5 million of equipment sitting in a warehouse in Blanchardstown despite being purchased two years ago. It has still not been installed in the marine rescue co-ordination centres in Malin and Valentia but the equipment in those stations...

Seanad: Order of Business (2 Jun 2011)

Mark Daly: She. Under section 35 of the NAMA legislation a code of practice was to be established within three months. This has been done. The code of practice states that all assets under the control of NAMA should be sold under the code of conduct for the governance of State bodies, which means that every asset, be it a loan or property, should be sold by auction or tender. This is not happening....

Seanad: Order of Business (2 Jun 2011)
