FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Was this a decision that had to go to the board? To clarify my understanding, we find ourselves at a payment in lieu of 12 days' holidays. Is that correct?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: We have no detail at all around the benefit in kind, BIK, arrangement, or this issue around BIK on certain expenses. How much did the BIK on certain expenses amount to?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: It is difficult for us to tease through those issues, particularly when we got the documentation at such short notice. In its opening statement, Sport Ireland outlined that corrective actions were taken afterwards. Was repayment of the excess part of the corrective action?

FAI: Matters relating to Governance and Funding (22 Feb 2024) Marc Ó Cathasaigh: That money has been recouped by the FAI. That, at the very least, is good to hear. I have some questions for the representatives of Sport Ireland. We seem to have sporting organisations before the committee more often than I would like. We have a line of sight on the departmental funding and how it comes to be with Sport Ireland. We see how it is disbursed among the national governing...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Energy Poverty: Discussion (Resumed) (21 Feb 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: The Cathaoirleach has changed my plan for how I am going to direct my questions, but he is the boss. I acknowledge the fantastic work that both of the organisations do. I will direct most of my questions to people from EnergyCloud Ireland. I might come back to Mr. Boland afterwards. I know Senator Garvey will be anxious to interrogate his work. I very much agree with what he said about...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: It is an enormous distributed battery.

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I asked about the installation process. Mr. Mullins gave me lots of enormously interesting information but the Cathaoirleach is going to shut me up at some stage.

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: If EnergyCloud is installing this device in my home, how much does it cost? I know it does not cost the householder anything, but how much does it cost? How long does it take? What information do we get back from the device?

- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Social Welfare Schemes (20 Feb 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: These questions are grouped. It is Question No. 96 that I am putting which has quite a different emphasis from Question No. 61 in the name of Deputy Paul Murphy. In my question, I am asking whether, in the expansion to the free travel scheme which is to come to pass in July next, it would be possible to include bike-share schemes, either regular bikes or e-bike schemes, within that. I...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Social Welfare Schemes (20 Feb 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Deputy Paul Murphy's question had quite a different thrust from my own. Mine was focusing on, as I said, bike-share scheme and e-bike schemes. I agree with the Minister's position on the other question. That change in terms of eligibility, which will come into force in July, is really welcome and was responding to some of the recommendations from the joint Oireachtas committee. People...

- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: School Meals Programme (20 Feb 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: As the Minister will be aware, all politics is local. This could not be more local. My kitchen table yesterday morning was a disaster. Everything was going well. I had made the sandwiches and then someone spotted a little bit of mould on the crust.
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: School Meals Programme (20 Feb 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I could have cut it off if I had copped it first, but that was it. They were in the bin then. I had to get up to Centra and buy chicken rolls. That was €7 lost on the day, so I am self-motivated. My question was about the schools that missed out on the April 2023 deadline. Like Deputy Ó Laoghaire, I want to see this in all schools. I have always been of the opinion, and it...
