Driving Test Waiting Times: Motion [Private Members] (18 Oct 2023)

Pauline Tully: I thank the Rural Independent Group for tabling this important motion. It is a huge issue in Cavan, as it is elsewhere.

Funding for Persons with Disabilities: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (17 Oct 2023)

Pauline Tully: I will start by thanking colleagues from my party and other parties and groups across the Chamber who spoke in support of this motion this evening.

Funding for Persons with Disabilities: Motion [Private Members] (17 Oct 2023)

Pauline Tully: I could talk for hours about it, but anyway. I move: That Dáil Éireann: condemns the Government's Budget for 2024 which, like previous Budgets, falls far short of what is required for disability services, meaning that children will continue to wait too long for, and go without, the assessments and therapies they need, while young people with disabilities will remain...
