- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Priorities for the Greyhound Industry: Rásaíocht Con Éireann (25 May 2022)

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (19 May 2022)
Paul Daly: I will raise one simple issue. As the weather gets a little finer and our lands dry up, each year we seem to have a increasing cases of wildfires and forest fires. I would like the relevant Department to start an early awareness campaign on this. I warmly welcome the statement from the Minister of State at the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Deputy Noonan, in which he...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Equine Welfare: My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: I welcome our guests and compliment them on the great work they are doing. I do not want to be critical, and there may be an element of poor phraseology or bad wording here, but I must comment on the portion of the opening statement in which Ms Kenny said that the horses of Ireland are being starved. That is a general comment and I am a horse owner. The powers that be at home tell me that I...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Equine Welfare: My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: Can the witnesses not go back in that regard, for example, if they have War Celeste and there is a chip which says that Paul Daly owns that horse, do the witnesses have to take my word that I sold that horse on? It is still officially registered to me. Can they not follow me? That would put the pressure on me if I ever sell a horse in future to make sure the paperwork is filled out before...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Equine Welfare: My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue (27 Apr 2022)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Equine Welfare: My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: As I said, this might seem a bit weird but it will be going on the record. Deputies Carthy and Gould, and Senator Boyhan, will look up the questions and answers that are on the record. The Deputies may even be back in the committee room before the representatives have finished their answers.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: I just want clarification. I do not even know what a hemp plant looks like. We had the representative bodies in and it seems to me that the kernel of the debate and the issues we will have if this is to have any kind of feasible future is the fact that the plant is covered by the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2017. I hope the witnesses will correct me if I am wrong because, as I have said, I...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: Deputy Carthy suggested that we are out of sync with the EU in that regard. Is he correct? Is a trace level of 0.2%, which is to increase to 0.3% in 2023, accepted within the EU? This crop is recognised in EU CAP regulations. Will Mr. Moloney first confirm whether we are out of sync with the EU and-----
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: -----if that is true, will he tell me why that is the case?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: The HPRA will not license in Ireland any food product, whether agricultural food or otherwise, that contains any trace.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: How are we going to square this circle if this crop has potential from an agricultural perspective? I am not trying to be flippant or smart but I can tell the witnesses the results of the consultation process they are carrying out at the moment and the contents of the report they are to send to the Minister because there will be no buy-in. I will again use that analogy and say that I cannot...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: While you can bring the seed in, you still cannot get the maximum potential output from the crop grown from that seed because the HPRA will not license anything with any trace in it at all. The point I am trying to get is that, as long is this falls under the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2017, the agricultural potential is limited.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: Basically, with regard to the development of this crop, we are in a vicious cycle between the two Departments. Is there an appetite within the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine to try to right that wrong? I would call it a wrong. There is no point doing feasibility studies and consultation processes as we know the outcome at this stage. Is there an appetite within the...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: It is CBD oil.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Hemp Industry: Discussion (27 Apr 2022)
Paul Daly: Can I legally import hemp by-products or products with a higher THC level - up to 0.3% - which cannot be processed here? Is it a constituent part of animal feed or any product, including human food or cosmetic products? Can it come in from other EU countries, having been processed in those countries, when we are not allowed process it here because of the content?
