- Supporting Children out of Emergency Accommodation and into Homes: Statements (21 Nov 2019)
Paul Murphy: I find it very difficult to listen to the Government repeat its excuses about the very worst aspects of child homelessness. 3 o’clock We hear them regularly at this stage. This is presented as a terrible natural disaster, which everyone is working very hard to try to sort it. That obscures the reality that this is an unnatural disaster, one that has been created by the...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (21 Nov 2019)
Paul Murphy: The Tánaiste did not even attempt to answer the question. It relates to whether, despite his talk of not targeting anybody, he agrees with the decision of his Fine Gael colleagues, together with their colleagues in Fianna Fáil and the Green Party, to increase council rents for individuals in the South Dublin County Council area. These are individuals on low and fixed incomes whom...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Dual Pricing for Insurance: Discussion (Resumed) (21 Nov 2019)
Paul Murphy: What period do these figures relate to?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Dual Pricing for Insurance: Discussion (Resumed) (21 Nov 2019)

I think the narrative being spun by the insurance industry about how the primary issue is an increase in claims is falling apart. It is not working well for the industry. The facts do not illustrate it. The dual pricing issue is part of that. Perhaps we can start there before going back to the figures. I am not asking Mr....

Paul Murphy: So Mr. Hassett does not agree that such a practice could discriminate against people based on their age, not as an actuarial factor, but to do with the fact that they may not be checking the Internet or scouring price comparison websites. They may not have the time to do it. Mr. Hassett does not think that is necessarily a problem.
