- Leaders' Questions (13 Mar 2014)
Séamus Healy: Tá a fhios againn go léir go bhfuil 121,000 morgáiste in iarmharach. Tá 60,000 dóibh sin in iarmharach ar feadh bliain agus tá 33,500 in iarmharach ar feadh níos mó ná dhá bhliain. Tá 30,000 clann ar a laghad i mbaol a bheith curtha amach ach as a tithe cónaithe. Tá imní orm gur tugadh 1,500 cás nua chun tithe...

Séamus Healy: Of course it is possible.
- Leaders' Questions (13 Mar 2014)
Séamus Healy: Tá 30,000 clann ar a laghad i mbaol a bheith díbeartha as a teach cónaithe. Tá sé soiléir go bhfuil feall mór á imirt ag an Rialtas ar mhuintir na tíre agus go bhfuil an Rialtas chun dul ar aghaidh leis sin gan stad gan staonadh. Thug an tAire Shatter tuarascáil an ghrúpa saineolaithe os comhair an Cabinet ag moladh gur chóir an...

- Government's Priorities for the Year Ahead: Statements (Resumed) (6 Mar 2014)
Séamus Healy: This Government is selling off Ireland to foreign vulture capitalists. The Tánaiste, Deputy Eamon Gilmore, accused the former Fianna Fáil-Green Party Government of economic treason, but that economic treason continues under the Labour Party-Fine Gael Government as the country is sold off to foreign vulture capitalists with Deputy Eamon Gilmore as Tánaiste. Mortgages on homes,...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Report on Perinatal Deaths at Midland Regional Hospital: Discussion (6 Mar 2014)
Séamus Healy: It is important to thank the families who have persisted in raising these issues. It is also important to thank the Minister for the manner in which he has dealt with the situation and to welcome the report of Dr. Tony Holohan, the chief medical officer, in relation to this matter. There appears to be unprecedented failures here. It is truly shocking to learn of the lack of respect and...

- Leaders' Questions (5 Mar 2014)
Séamus Healy: The Taoiseach's and the Government's ideological commitment to private banking has ripped off the taxpayer and the people. The value of Wilbur Ross's and his North American vulture capitalist friends' shares in Bank of Ireland has more than trebled, from €1.1 billion to €3.8 billion. They are now selling 6.75% of Bank of Ireland for €690 million, at a huge profit, while...
- Leaders' Questions (5 Mar 2014)
Séamus Healy: I thank the Taoiseach for his response, but, once again, we have heard the usual smoke and mirrors blather. The fact is that the Government's ideological commitment to private banking has gone even further. As bad as the Wilbur Ross affair was, the taxpayer has been ripped off again, as recently as December 2013. This happened when Bank of Ireland was unable to call or buy all of the...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Ambulance Response Times: Discussion (25 Feb 2014)
Séamus Healy: I welcome the HSE staff. I pay tribute to ambulance personnel throughout the country. They work above and beyond the call of duty, not only daily but also hourly trying to provide a very important service to the public. What we all want, including the staff, is the best patient outcomes for those who avail of the service. It is clear from the various presentations this afternoon, from...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Ambulance Response Times: Discussion (25 Feb 2014)
Séamus Healy: I welcome the SIPTU representatives and thank Mr. Bell for his very informative presentation. I worked in the hospital sector for many years. A family member of mine was an ambulance driver initially and then progressed to being a paramedic and an advanced paramedic. I am well aware of the work done by the ambulance service. While the public might be concerned at times about particular...
