- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Funding Granted by Sport Ireland to the Football Association of Ireland and Related Matters: Discussion (3 Apr 2019)
Ruth Coppinger: I have a couple of questions. Sport Ireland was not informed of the loan by the FAI. Mr. Treacy said in his opening statement that Sport Ireland's financial controller raised a query with the FAI in regard to its liquidity in 2017 as part of the mid-year review. Not only did the FAI not inform Sport Ireland of the extraordinary loan, it actively concealed it. Would Mr. Treacy agree?

- Residential Tenancies (Prevention of Family Homelessness) Bill 2018: Second Stage [Private Members] (28 Mar 2019)
Ruth Coppinger: The Minister said earlier on radio that we could not force people to sell with a tenant in situ. He said the same thing again here tonight. He said the value of the property of that owner would fall by 20% to 30%. I want to examine that claim with him. Does he have proof that would happen, given the dearth of available housing? Given the shortage of housing, would selling a house with a...
