Topical Issue Debate: Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (3 Jul 2018)

Alan Kelly: Let us call a spade a spade. The dogs in the street know what is happening here. I appreciate the Minister of State's script but it is actually insulting to the industry. Everyone knows what is going on here. Market dominance is being abused. A whole range of publicans are being approached with these incentives. It is happening everywhere, whether it is rebates, refurbishment, kegs,...

Topical Issue Debate: Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (3 Jul 2018)

Alan Kelly: I ask the Minister to investigate what is blatantly obvious to anyone who knows the industry, namely anti-competitive practices by large brewing companies in Ireland. They are abusing their scale or market dominance to have basically exclusionary deals with publicans, large-scale publicans in the main. Large brewers are providing free stock, advance discounts, capex or cash investments to...

Implementing the National Drugs Strategy: Statements (28 Jun 2018)

Alan Kelly: I welcome the Minister of State's comments. We should not be debating the new drugs strategy a year after it was launched. It is kind of crazy. There is so much talk about the need to address this issue and we are debating the strategy a year late. We talk a lot about new politics but this is as an example of where it is not working. The new national drugs strategy is rightly called...
