- Confidence in the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government: Motion [Private Members] (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: We got money messaged. We got Bills passed and then they got money messaged.
- Confidence in the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government: Motion [Private Members] (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: This is not personal. This is not about Deputy Eoghan Murphy as an individual; this is about a policy that has failed and the shameful consequences of that policy. Almost 4,000 children are suffering circumstances that no child should have to suffer. Indeed, the number is much higher because, while some eventually get out of homelessness, more enter it. Thousands of young people,...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Harbours and Piers Development (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: It should be a matter of concern to the Government that an unelected executive is making decisions about a very important site, which is of huge value to the people of the area and could generate significant employment and benefits for the area, without reference to anybody. I cannot get information in the House. In the email I have in my hand, councillors are told that a preferred bidder...

- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Harbours and Piers Development (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: My question relates to the former Stena terminal building in Dún Laoghaire Harbour and the moves by the council to develop some sort of new enterprise there. The problem is that elected representatives - councillors and I - and the wider public have no clue as to how the expressions of interest process was set up, how the council decided to pick a preferred bidder and what criteria were...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Harbours and Piers Development (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: All I can say is the plot thickens. I would be delighted if there were funds available under the Department's regional enterprise development fund. What I find an absolute mystery is that Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council decided on a preferred bidder to set up a new enterprise in this central location in the middle of Dún Laoghaire Harbour and it has not even spoken to the...
- Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Staff Data (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: As well as the issue of Israel's abhorrent treatment of Palestinian children as described by Deputy McDonald, whose question I echo about what the Government will do to raise this ongoing and systematic denial of rights to children in breach of every sort of international law and standard, I wish to ask about what the Government is going to do to raise its voice and demand that the EU take...

Richard Boyd Barrett: 6. To ask the Taoiseach if he will report on the work of the international division in his Department. [47832/19]
- Ceisteanna - Questions: Biotechnology Industry (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: 2. To ask the Taoiseach the role his Department has in implementing the bio-economy framework which was launched a year ago; and the actions that have been taken since. [49141/19]
- Ceisteanna - Questions: Biotechnology Industry (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: The bioeconomy strategy pays lip service to forestry and its importance to the bioeconomy, biodiversity, a circular economy, etc. However, the actuality of Government policy suggests that all of this is just lip service and nothing more. A report by Mr. Jim Mackinnon, commissioned by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, has come out just this month. Frankly, it is damning of...
- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (3 Dec 2019)
Richard Boyd Barrett: Later this evening, we will discuss the gamut of policy failures of this Government in the area of housing and homelessness. Because People Before Profit requested it, on Thursday we will discuss solutions to the housing crisis, in case the Taoiseach is tempted to say we do not want to discuss solutions. There was a whole chapter in the programme for Government on "Ending the Housing...
