Council Development Levies: Motion [Private Members] (1 Feb 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Independent Group for bringing forward this motion on levies. Levies are always a contention. There are different aspects of levies but they are contentious for people who do not see the benefits of the levies after paying them. We all know now that levies, service charges and connection fees make up almost half the cost of building a house. This is stopping young fellas from...

Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Motion [Private Members] (31 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank Sinn Féin for tabling the motion because it is pertinent to what has happened in south Kerry and now in north Kerry as well. Many young children have been damaged by the lack of proper care from CAMHS. The HSE blamed a junior doctor in south Kerry, but what is the cause of the problem in north Kerry? It seems that there is a problem all over the country. It is very clear that...

Post-European Council Meeting: Statements (31 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to say a few words on this, although my time is short. It appears the Government is deliberately blocking the public from having any voice when it comes to the Government's immigration policy, which is all over the place. This is clearly being dictated to us by unelected bureaucrats in Brussels and we cannot have a debate in here because we are held back...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Sale of Alcohol Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed) (31 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the witnesses for coming in. I did not hear all of their opening statements as I was listening in my office but I got the gist of most of them. On the Bill, when something is wrong, it is never right. No matter how we try to talk it up it is not going to be right. I do not know how the Minister or the Government thought they could sell this Bill to the nation. People are not...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Sale of Alcohol Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed) (31 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: I have one other thing to say. The extinguishment rule has to be retained, otherwise it will disenfranchise many rural publicans and they are disenfranchised as it is.

Communications Regulation Bill 2022: Instruction to Committee (25 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: The retention of the post offices we have left in rural Ireland is vital if communities are to survive. We saw what happened in the UK. They got rid of a lot of their post offices, more than half of them, and now they are trying to bring them back into existence again. We must do our best to retain the post offices we have left because they are vital to local communities. Elderly people...

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Chair.

Inshore Fishing: Motion [Private Members] (25 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank the Minister for recognising that we were the only group that tabled a motion representing inshore fishers. They have been left behind in many ways. The Minister spoke for ten minutes, but he did not say whether he would accede to our request for €12 million for inshore fishers in our coastal communities. They are on their knees. The situation has been spelled out for the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Forestry Policy and Strategy: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (25 Jan 2023)

Danny Healy-Rae: Thank you, Chair, for giving me the opportunity. I am disgusted. I am disappointed. I had thought Deputy McConalogue, as a rural Minister, would do better and do more for farmers. Generally, at every turn they have been badly let down. We gave 800 years to trying to get the British out of these lands and blood was spilled on the streets outside 100 years ago to do just that. Now a UK...
