Aer Lingus Share Disposal: Motion (Resumed) (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: There is no doubt in my mind that the process under way over the past several months is nothing more than a charade designed to give the illusion that the Government was debating issues and wrestling concessions from IAG, when it had in fact already decided the outcome. That is not surprising from a Fine Gael point of view. After all, it was the Minister for Finance, Deputy Noonan, who...

Leaders' Questions (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: Yesterday, the Taoiseach told Deputy Adams he could not answer the questions. I assume the reason he has not done it this time is that he could not be bothered to give us the respect of answering. The Taoiseach has not addressed a single issue we raised. Many of the positives he outlined about the airline are already in train and are irrelevant to whether or not IAG takes over. The...

Leaders' Questions (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: Where is the money going in to secure their future now? It is a disgrace.

Leaders' Questions (27 May 2015)

Clare Daly: The Minister, Deputy Donohoe, made the point this morning that this is a landmark decision. It certainly is that. It marks a new low in the behaviour of this Government in terms of its arrogance, undemocratic manoeuvring and contempt for this House that it would ram through in a matter of days strategic decisions about the future of an almost 80 year old company that has employed tens of...

To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs if he has had discussions with the Department of Health regarding the need to have nutritional information on confectionery products, documented in a manner as a percentage of a child's daily intake rather than a percentage of an adult's daily intake, in particular on those products which are aimed at children; and if he will make a...

Criminal Justice (Terrorism Offences) (Amendment) Bill 2014 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: The Minister of State seemed to suggest there is no way out of this and we are required to legislate for this provision in this way. That is not correct. We have given examples from France, Germany, Italy, Hungary and Bulgaria, all of which have chosen to incorporate this provision in an entirely different and restrictive way than the Minister of State and his Government have proposed....

Criminal Justice (Terrorism Offences) (Amendment) Bill 2014 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: The amendments are critically important and get to the heart of many civil liberties issues. They are being discussed in the context of our supposed desire to combat terrorism. Yet, as Deputy Wallace said, terrorism is something we facilitate on a daily basis by being complicit in the efforts of the US war machine, which has been the key reason for which terrorism has exploded and the...

Other Questions: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: It is very important to say this process, in fact, is not detailed and that either the Minister is being misinformed or she is not being kept updated on the issue. I do not mean this in a derogatory way, but it is absolutely not the case that people were asked for more information. There has been no communication with the people who gave information to the panel. Therefore, how could it...

Other Questions: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: I did not set a short timeframe; the Minister was the one who set the timeframe. We were all shocked at the idea that such a timeframe would be advanced, but the only reason it was advanced was this was only to be a paper review and it has remained as such. The panel has refused to take onboard extra information and has not even queried information available.

Other Questions: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: After years of experience.

Other Questions: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: 112. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality if she will update Dáil Éireann regarding the Independent Review Mechanism into cases of Garda malpractice, in terms of the number of persons who have been communicated with by the panel; the number of cases that they have recommended for further investigation; and the way she proposes to address the cases for which no further action...

Other Questions: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: This question is obviously linked to the first priority question on the independent review mechanism. Approximately eight weeks ago, the Minister told the House the review was at a very advanced stage in the vast majority of cases and that the process of notifying people of outcomes would begin after Easter. We had a similar response today to the first question, but there are subtle...

Other Questions: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: I see. A problem is that nobody who has participated in the process so far sees it as independent and robust. When it was initiated, they were told it would take eight weeks. Let us be clear that it is a paper review and eight weeks was more than ample time for the Minister to decide that some issues related to the Judiciary or land law and could be parked. Those issues are not...

Written Answers — Department of Justice and Equality: Garda Misconduct Allegations (26 May 2015)

Clare Daly: 131.
