Financial Resolutions 2024 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (2 Oct 2024) See 2 other results from this debate

Ivana Bacik: This country has resources that are the envy of our neighbours. I refer to the Apple billions, record surpluses and low unemployment. However, in the Ireland of 2024, even workers with good jobs and their own homes suffer from a lack of public infrastructure and a cost-of-living crisis. Those without homes are suffering most. They are at the sharp edge of our housing disaster. It is not...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (2 Oct 2024)

Ivana Bacik: Before I start, I acknowledge the distressing escalation of conflict in the Middle East. Our thoughts and, I am sure, all our thoughts are with all those affected, with our Defence Forces in south Lebanon, their families and our citizens trapped in the region, who must be brought home. We need to see all diplomatic means exhausted to bring about peace in the region. I wish to raise with...

Financial Resolutions 2024 - Budget Statement 2025 (1 Oct 2024) See 3 other results from this debate

Michael Healy-Rae: There is plenty of money here but no plan. I am not going to vote for this budget because I am standing up for the hospitality sector in County Kerry, the tourism capital of the western world that the Minister of State and her Government has totally abandoned here today. How in the name of God can the Government say this to the hoteliers, to the vintners, to the restaurant people and to the...

Seanad: Budget 2025 (Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform): Statements (1 Oct 2024)

Róisín Garvey: Tá sé an-suimiúil nach raibh a dhóthain ama ag an Aire Stáit dul tríd gach rud. Tá an buiséad chomh maith sin. This is such a big and long budget, and so much money is being given out for many things, that the Minister of State ran out of time. You never get everything you want but that is the way it is in life in general. It is a part of being in...

Written Answers — Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth: Legislative Measures (1 Oct 2024)

Roderic O'Gorman: In March 2022, Government approved high-level proposals for a National Centre for Research and Remembrance, to be located on the site of the former Magdalen Laundry on Sean McDermott Street in Dublin 1. This Centre will stand as a site of conscience to honour equally all those who spent time in Industrial Schools, Magdalen Laundries, Mother and Baby and County Home Institutions,...

Carer's Allowance Means Test: Motion [Private Members] (25 Sep 2024)

Alan Dillon: I thank the Deputies for their contributions. The Government is not opposing this motion put forward by the Regional Group and I welcome the opportunity to contribute to this debate. The Government is very aware of the valuable work being carried out by family carers and this is evidenced by the extensive measures that have been taken to support carers in recent years. The approach to...

Mental Health Bill 2024: Second Stage (Resumed) (19 Sep 2024)

Catherine Connolly: ..., they did not tell us whether that is years or months. I believe that one or two patients, or people, have been residents in that unit for years. That ties in with the housing crisis and there being no place to discharge people. Can the Ceann Comhairle imagine that we have somebody in an acute mental health unit because there is no place for them to go? I appreciate that the Minister...

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Public Petitions Received (19 Sep 2024) See 1 other result from this debate

Is that agreed? Agreed. We have seven petitions for consideration today. The first is No. P00021/22, the Kiltimagh water scheme, from Mr. Tom...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (18 Sep 2024)

Holly Cairns: The Taoiseach said this Government takes nothing off the table and anyone who thinks they will get off the hook is wrong but for his information, this has literally just happened with regard to the redress scheme for mother and baby homes. The Minister went over cap in hand to the Church to try to get a contribution and did not get one. Is the Taoiseach aware of a legal strategy that is...

Written Answers — Department of Public Expenditure and Reform: Summer Economic Statement (23 Jul 2024)

Paschal Donohoe: While we operate in an uncertain international environment with wars in Ukraine, Middle East and Africa, and deal with certain legacy impacts of the pandemic, it is appropriate to maintain a contingency reserve within the overall expenditure amounts across the years 2025 to 2030 in line with what was previously set out in the Stability Programme Update (SPU). In Budget 2024 a sum of...

Heather Humphreys: The main income supports to carers provided by my department include Carer's Allowance, Carer's Benefit, Domiciliary Care Allowance, and the Carer's Support Grant. Spending on these payments in 2024 is expected to exceed €1.7 billion. Domiciliary Care Allowance is a monthly payment to a parent or guardian for a child aged up to 16 who has a severe disability and requires care and...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Jul 2024)

John McGahon: I ask for a debate about Irish Water and our water infrastructure when we come back to this House in September. I ask because of an issue I raised previously in this House over the past two years, which is now quite serious in my home town of Dundalk, a town of 42,000 people, where the water has been absolutely rotten on many occasions. It is brown throughout the day for a huge number of...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Building Regulations (11 Jul 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank the office of the Ceann Comhairle and the Minister of State, Deputy Carroll MacNeill, for facilitating this debate as it is the last Topical Issue debate before the recess and we will not return until September. I wish to raise the important matter of regulation for renters. The Housing (Standards for Rented Houses) Regulations 2019 mandate a proper state of repair and adequate...

Written Answers — Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth: Mother and Baby Homes (10 Jul 2024)

Action 18 of the Action Plan for Survivors and Former Residents of Mother and Baby and County Home Institutions commits to the creation of a Children's Fund to honour the memory of the children who died in Mother and Baby Institutions, with the core aim of supporting children experiencing disadvantage in the present day. Three...

Inquiry into the death of Shane O'Farrell: Motion [Private Members] (9 Jul 2024)

Matt Carthy: ...all those Members who have contributed to the debate. I am deeply sorry that you were made to fight for so long that they went to their graves never knowing the truth. Today we say formally and without any equivocation, we are sorry. We failed you when you needed us the most. From the very beginning, we should have stood with you, but instead we forced you to stand against us. Any...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (9 Jul 2024)

Simon Harris: I propose to take Questions Nos. 16 to 19, inclusive, together. I attended the summit on peace in Ukraine hosted by Switzerland on 15 and 16 June, together with over 50 other world leaders and over 100 countries and international organisations. As world leaders gathered for this important summit to talk about peace, Russia continued its relentless attacks on Ukraine, including the...
