- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly: Engagement with Ms Marie Donnelly (20 Sep 2018)
Máire Devine: I thank Ms Donnelly. I am a bit gobsmacked at it all. It is fascinating and complicated at the same time. I hope the guy in the German utility was fired for making such a dreadful error. I am very aware sometimes of a rural-urban divide and I am the first Dubliner to speak today.

- Seanad: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee and Remaining Stages (19 Sep 2018)
Máire Devine: I want to respond to my colleague, Senator Ardagh. She knows that my heart and soul, and that of my party, is in providing a children's hospital. It is probably disingenuous of her to say that we are seeking to delay the Bill. It is not about delaying the Bill - it is about making it a better Bill. That is what we are here to do and it involves proposing amendments. I note that the...
- Seanad: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee and Remaining Stages (19 Sep 2018)
