Prison Development (Confirmation of Resolutions) Bill 2013: Second Stage (27 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: I have been warned. Other Deputies have made points with regard to in-cell sanitation, which is obviously welcome. However, unless this is a fully walled facility, it might as well not be there, and there is still an abuse of people's privacy. I again appeal to the Government to push back from rushing this through and to look, even at this late hour, to provide for single cell occupancy...

Prison Development (Confirmation of Resolutions) Bill 2013: Second Stage (27 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: I would like to make a couple of brief points. It is appropriate to step back and look at where prison policy is going, not just in the context of human rights issues and how one judges a civilised society but also against the backdrop of austerity, the minute analysis of where taxpayer's money is spent and the question of whether we get value for that money. Are prisons operating to make...

Leaders' Questions (27 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: The only thing that is unusual is the scale of the arrogance, the scale of the delays and the scale of the inaction. I want to ask the Minister two questions. These are crimes.

We have heard a lot from the Labour Party about how it did not vote...

Leaders' Questions (27 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: The Minister's point about due process or the system being potentially tainted is utter nonsense. There are facts here. Laws were broken, this criminal activity happened and those who were responsible for it have not been brought to book. I do not believe the people out there are interested in Oireachtas inquiries. The critical thing they are interested in is that those responsible be...

Leaders' Questions (27 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: The Minister, unlike in the past when she was in opposition, has an opportunity to do that now. Why is she asking - forcing - the Irish people to pay for the crimes of these bankers while they walk free? The Government has the power to the cancel the bonds that are under the Central Bank. Let the ECB take a hit rather than special needs assistants, parents and mortgage holders. The choice...

Leaders' Questions (27 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: I am sure the Minister appreciates how sickened people are by what are called "the vampire tapes". Does she appreciate that the questions people are asking do not really relate to who said what to whom, or to whether politicians were just incompetent or incompetent and corrupt? They are asking what the Government intends to do about it. To be honest, slagging Fianna Fáil and waffling...
