Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Departmental Properties (11 Jun 2024)

Anne Rabbitte: This is a project that if the likes of it were in Dundalk or Drogheda, whereby a property was made available to the local authority, I have no doubt the Cathaoirleach Gníomhnach would stay hot on my heels until it was operationalised. It is one of those project that needs to be operationalised now. There is no point in having a building left vacant. It is now a building that will pass...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Care Services (11 Jun 2024)

Anne Rabbitte: I thank the Deputy and I take on board all that he said. I welcome the fact that the Taoiseach today, on the floor of the Dáil, committed that he is meeting Family Carers Ireland within the next two weeks to discuss the full report there.

Anne Rabbitte: I thank Deputy Smith for raising that question. It is not the first time he has raised it.
