Other Questions: Northern Ireland Issues (26 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: A number of Deputies on this side of the House and from the Minister's party have been involved in a cross-party, ad hocgroup relating to prisoner issues in Northern Ireland. We are deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Maghaberry Prison regarding serious issues of prisoner welfare and we would like to know what steps the Minister has taken to raise these issues with his...

Other Questions: Northern Ireland Issues (26 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: It is important to say that the Deputies who visit loyalist and republican prisoners believe our intervention is probably one of the best ways of reducing tensions and threats through respecting the rights of people in the prison system.

Other Questions: Military Aircraft Landings (26 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: 10.

Other Questions: Military Aircraft Landings (26 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: We obviously have a very peculiar situation in Ireland where foreign military aircraft can overfly and land based on permission received from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, but yet tens of thousands of troops and weapons are being carried on civilian aircraft under the remit of the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport. When the Departments of Justice and Equality and...

Other Questions: Military Aircraft Landings (26 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: That is probably the Minister's worst answer ever.

Last year 741 foreign military aircraft were given permission to land in Ireland. The Minister is claiming they were all unarmed and were not involved in anything. I would like to know what he...

Other Questions: Military Aircraft Landings (26 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: I beg to differ. I do not think we are in sync with international practice at all. No search has ever been carried out on any aircraft. Deputy Wallace rang the Garda in Shannon last week to report his suspicions of two aircraft that had landed. The Garda would not carry out a search because it claimed it did not have enough evidence, which is the very point of why it would need to search...

Income and Living Conditions: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (25 Feb 2015)

Clare Daly: Until the Minister's contribution we were torn between whether we should laugh or cry over here with some of the contributions from the Government benches, but some of the points made have been nauseating to the point of being obscene. There is propaganda being trotted out about Ireland being in a recovery, that a corner has been turned and a statement almost to the effect that unless...
