Private Members' Business. School Guidance Counsellors: Motion (Resumed) (18 Jan 2012)

Private Members' Business. School Guidance Counsellors: Motion (Resumed) (18 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: He got that one wrong because he did not really understand it and was prepared to change. It does not matter whether he got it or sought to get it wrong on guidance counselling. There is an opportunity for Members opposite to get it right tonight and overturn this decision. To do so would allow the people in the Visitors Gallery to go back to their schools tomorrow to continue the excellent...

Private Members' Business. School Guidance Counsellors: Motion (Resumed) (18 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: Children now need assistance from professionals who have liaised with universities and other third level institutions. They also, as Deputy Neville stated concisely, deal with children who self-harm, come from broken homes or those in which there is alcoholism or have other difficulties. The one solace for those children is the opportunity to talk to their guidance counsellor at school, the...

Private Members' Business. School Guidance Counsellors: Motion (Resumed) (18 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: The State will spend between €40 billion and €50 billion this year and the issue is what the Government prioritises in spending that amount. If it does not prioritise the work of the people in the gallery and the children who will be affected by this cut, shame on them. I appeal to them to change it.

Private Members' Business. School Guidance Counsellors: Motion (Resumed) (18 Jan 2012)

Business of Dáil (13 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: On a point of order-----

Business of Dáil (13 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: I appreciate that. As the Chair can see, there is some difficulty here this morning in trying to reach a consensus on how we should proceed. Much of the difficulty relates to the Water Services (Amendment) Bill. I suggest the Chair allow the Whips ten minutes to met outside the House and suggest he suspends the sitting for ten minutes to allow them to discuss the issue. Considering the...

Business of Dáil (13 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: Allowing that discussion would be in line with the commitment of the Government to bring a level of reform to the way in which we do business. Seeing as the issue has arisen-----

Business of Dáil (13 Jan 2012)

Business of Dáil (13 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: It is the Chair's prerogative to suspend the sitting. I ask him to do this to seek agreement.

Business of Dáil (13 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: I do not want to cause disruption. I respect the House, as do most of those here. However, for the sake of ten minutes, allow the Whips sit down to have a conversation, give the Minister a chance to have a cup of tea and get his thoughts together. I appeal to the Chair.

Dublin Airport Authority (12 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: I have no issue with the calibre of the individual whom the Minister has appointed to the chair. He is a candidate of exceptional quality and skill but he does not have the experience he will need in the absence of a chief executive and for this I am disappointed it has taken the Minister so long. Six months is an undue period. The Minister should have been able to find a chairman more...

Jobs Initiative (12 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: He left out Mayo, which surprised me.

Jobs Initiative (12 Jan 2012)

Timmy Dooley: I do not want to rain on the parade in respect of the growth in passenger numbers, but while I accept there has been a modest increase in tourism activity, have the numbers presented factored in the ash cloud of 2010? Has the Minister seen a particular spike in tourism growth as a result of the reduction in VAT?
