Topical Issue Debate: Pyrite Remediation Programme Issues (2 Oct 2012)

Clare Daly: It certainly is not sustainable for the home owners to continue the way they have been. Moreover, the figure probably is far in excess of 10,000 and many more than 850 require immediate works. In the same way as the Government and the Housing Finance Agency took over bad loans from county councils, there is a precedent for the State providing money upfront and then going after those...

Topical Issue Debate: Road Safety (2 Oct 2012)

Clare Daly: Perhaps they are not as good at distorting figures in those authorities as they are in our constituencies.

Other Questions: Unemployment Levels (2 Oct 2012)

Clare Daly: The problem with the Minister's answers is that they do not equate with reality on the ground. He has twice mentioned Irish Water. The work that will be transferred to Irish Water is currently being done by local authority workers. The contracts he referred to are short-term contracts for the installation of water meters to privatise the service and will be fulfilled by companies such as...

Other Questions: Youth Unemployment Numbers (2 Oct 2012)

Clare Daly: How will the Minister pull off this conjuring trick if the methods he uses are the ones he is currently employing and seriously failing with? He quoted JobBridge figures but that initiative is one of the biggest scams going. In reality, it is an exploitative scheme to replace real jobs with bogus internships. Only 400 jobs have been created under it and the Minister has yet to explain how...

Magdalene Laundries: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (26 Sep 2012)

Clare Daly: I also read the Justice for Magdalenes report over the weekend and upsetting as it is, it should be made compulsory reading for all citizens. It is a register of the crimes committed by this State against women. After reading the report, there can be no doubt that this was a deliberate social policy which was summed up in the report of the Commission on the Relief of the Sick and Destitute...

An Bille um an Aonú Leasú is Tríocha ar an mBunreacht (Leanaí) 2012: An Dara Céim (Atógáil) - Thirty-First Amendment of the Constitution (Children) Bill 2012: Second Stage (Resumed) (26 Sep 2012)

Clare Daly: Bringing in a stand alone provision on children's rights affirming the individual right of the child is a positive measure. Aspiring to a firmer protection for children under the Constitution is welcome, and I would not in any way underestimate its impact. It is a significant piece of work and I broadly welcome it in that parameter. It is somewhat ironic that we have had five referenda on...

Clare Daly: Historically, with the industrial schools and the Magdalene laundries, but recently as well in terms of the children who died in State care and so on, we have ground to make up. I welcome this measure in the context that at the very least it gives us an opportunity to discuss some of these issues and put centre stage the way we defend children's rights and how we identify those rights. The...
