Child Care Services. (13 Oct 2005)

Seán Crowe: Like my colleague I welcome the opportunity to speak on the question I have put to the Minister for Health and Children.

Irish Ferries: Motion. (11 Oct 2005)

Seán Crowe: It is undeniable that Irish Ferries is conducting a human resources strategy which is geared towards replacing its Irish crews with eastern European labour. These workers will be paid well below the minimum wage — the figure mentioned is a miserly €3.60 per hour. Irish Ferries has outlined to its staff that failure to take the so-called voluntary redundancy package will lead to a drastic...

Railway Safety Bill 2001: Report Stage (Resumed). (11 Oct 2005)

Seán Crowe: I support many of the points made by Deputy Shortall, particularly with regard to random testing, my main area of concern. The Bill refers to giving a person the power to oblige employees to provide samples and refers to "reasonable grounds for suspicion". From outside, it seems reasonable to discuss such matters, but as we know the difficulty is that there has been a poisoned relationship in...

School Transport. (11 Oct 2005)

Seán Crowe: I thank the Minister of State for her reply. A situation whereby a child is left on the side of the road, with the consequent risks to his or her safety, is tantamount to criminality, according to the headmaster of Ramsgrange community school. When does the Minister of State expect the report on this incident to be published? I presume she does not have the details of this particular case but...

The Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act: Motion. (6 Oct 2005)

Seán Crowe: Sinn Féin supports this motion. Immigration and the undocumented Irish are the big issues for the Irish in the US and those associated with Ireland.

The message coming from this debate is that the Irish people, North...

We subsequently received a series of amendments and we received further...
