- Water Policy: Statements (9 Nov 2022)
Réada Cronin: There are people in my constituency of Kildare North who cannot move into their homes because of water supply issues. That is not a problem just for people in my colleague's area.

- Creeslough, County Donegal: Statements (8 Nov 2022)
Réada Cronin: We are here to speak on the awful tragedy at Creeslough. It was one of those moments where the island was united in shock and in grief.

Réada Cronin: I am grateful to be in a position to be able to attend this meeting. I am normally at the Joint Committee on Environment and Climate Action, which happens to sit at the same time.

I wish to ask Dublin Bus about...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Provision of Bus Services in Dublin: Discussion (8 Nov 2022)
Réada Cronin: No. The bus should go around the town and not just come in and go back out the road it came from. It should circle the town. I made that submission to BusConnects as well. The people to whom I have spoken all think it is a very good idea so I do not see why not.
