- Section 39 Agency Staff Reimbursements: Motion [Private Members] (17 Jan 2018)
Mattie McGrath: I too compliment Deputy Calleary for putting down the motion. The nice flowery language from the Ministers of State, Deputies Finian McGrath and Jim Daly, will not help the people in the Gallery and those who protested outside. In my book, fair play is fine play. Everyone had to take the cuts, except the preserved few, including senior civil servants. They were also exonerated from having...
- Questions on Promised Legislation (17 Jan 2018)
Mattie McGrath: An issue we talk about all the time and about which the Taoiseach said he was shocked is the trolley crisis and delays in emergency departments. We have been trying to extend the community hospital in Clogheen in Tipperary for six or seven years. It is a fabulous facility and excellent care is provided there. A number of local organisations, Friends of St. Theresa's and Boston Scientific,...

- European Council: Statements (16 Jan 2018)
Mattie McGrath: I will raise a similar matter regarding PESCO. We debated it before the Christmas break. Assurances were given by the Tánaiste, the Minister of State and others.

- European Council: Statements (16 Jan 2018)
Mattie McGrath: I wish the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, the Minister of State and everyone in the House a happy new year.

She was an excellent ambassador for Ireland throughout the EU and, indeed, all over the world. She is a huge loss, not only to her own young children, her...

- Order of Business (16 Jan 2018)
Mattie McGrath: The Taoiseach mentioned that he is shocked about the trolley crisis, about the numbers involved and about how slowly the matter is being dealt with. It is a pity the Minister for Health has left. Mary Street Medical Centre in Clonmel is a fine facility and has excellent diagnostic equipment. The Minister visited the centre and saw this with his own two eyes. After three years, the HSE...
