Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Human Trafficking) Bill 2023: Second Stage (4 Oct 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I begin by acknowledging the trafficking and exploitation of human beings, especially children, as a global issue that is not unique to Ireland. However, compared with our counterparts in the EU, Ireland is lagging in tackling human trafficking in all its forms. Convictions for traffficking and the number of identified victims of trafficking are extremely low. Ireland is considered a...

An Garda Síochána: Motion [Private Members] (4 Oct 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I recently asked the Minister, Deputy McEntee, if she had confidence in the Garda Commissioner and she told me she did and so did the Government.

I will focus on the new Garda operational model,...

Childcare Fees: Motion [Private Members] (3 Oct 2023)

It is timely with only one week out from the budget announcement and considering that thousands of people turned out to protest last week. It is vitally important. I listened to the Minister, Deputy O'Gorman's, contribution and I welcome the sentiment around the fact that much more work needs to be done here....

School Transport 2023-2024: Statements (3 Oct 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I begin by acknowledging the Minister's well-intentioned idea of last year to provide free school transport. However, it was poorly executed, as there had not been enough forward planning and it was incredibly disappointing to see capped fees reintroduced this year. I hope that next Tuesday there will be a line in the budget to ensure there will not be a reintroduction of full fees next...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (3 Oct 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: In the shadow of the looming budget, I refer to the importance of putting carers at the heart of it.

In my constituency of Clare, some 6% of the population, or more than 8,200 people, provide unpaid care. In addition, the number of Clare people providing...

Eviction Ban Bill 2022: Motion (27 Sep 2023)

Reversal of Planned Fuel Price Increases: Motion [Private Members] (26 Sep 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: In the past three weeks alone, we have had one significant increase in petrol and diesel prices and are now looking down the double barrels of not one but two more increases in a few short weeks. That may fly in some parts of the country but I find it hard to believe voters in the Minister's constituency would be happy about it. I assure him the owners of the 36,000 cars and 4,300 vans...
