- Road Traffic (Amendment) Bill 2017: Report Stage (Resumed) (25 Apr 2018)
Mattie McGrath: I will try to pick up on the road I was travelling last night, because if the Minister, Deputy Ross, gets his way there will be no one travelling any roads, especially in rural Ireland. It will only be the thieves and the vagabonds. They can do what they like. There is no one to stop them or catch them. That is what we are forcing. When I was sitting here during discussion of the last...
- Nurses' and Midwives' Pay and Recruitment: Motion [Private Members] (25 Apr 2018)
Mattie McGrath: I am delighted to speak on this motion. We all got an email recently from a nurse which gave us the devastating news that some student nurses have as little as €6 a week left to buy food. That is appalling. Indeed, fourth-year student nurse, Tara Nic Chormaic, who is 28, has stated that the hell of the hospitals has left the class of 2018 burnt out and disillusioned. In addition,...

- Questions on Promised Legislation (25 Apr 2018)
Mattie McGrath: Of course I will. I always do, especially in this section. I want to ask a question in respect of the programme for Government and its commitment to health. There are definitely health issues in Tipperary. The Minister, Deputy Harris, who is actually present, visited Cashel some time ago and was aghast to see an empty hospital on which €25 million had been spent. Over the road,...
- Questions on Promised Legislation (25 Apr 2018)
Mattie McGrath: What is the Minister, Deputy Harris, going to do about GPs in the country in general? We had an excellent GP in Cashel, Dr. Ryan. He is retiring. What will the Minister do to make sure that hospital can continue to operate and to give solace to the families and patients who are there for necessary care? What will he do to ensure there will be a GP to cover that assessment unit in St....

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Response to National Emergencies: Irish Water (25 Apr 2018)
Mattie McGrath: Like others, I also welcome the witnesses and thank them for all their efforts. I also commend the Irish Water teams on the ground and county council workers who helped with both serious weather events.

I want to ask Mr. Grant and his team about the non-domestic demand analysis. Indecon made it clear that, in its view,...

- Community Employment Pension Scheme: Motion [Private Members] (24 Apr 2018)
Mattie McGrath: I welcome gach duine as fud na tíre, the supervisors and assistant supervisors who are the heroes of rural and urban communities. They look after people from the cradle to the grave, but where is the Minister? Tá sí as láithair, but they will not be as láithair when it comes to voting. They know what to do - wait in the long grass, trip and knock her and tell her...
