I can foresee a situation where somebody who gets a...

EU-Mercosur Trade Agreement: Motion [Private Members] (10 Jul 2019)

Catherine Murphy: It is ironic that, in the same week there has been commentary regarding the re-appointment of Phil Hogan as EU Commissioner for agriculture, we are here again discussing the trade deal which will have such a dramatic impact on Ireland and Irish food producers.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the Air Navigation and Transport Bill 2019: Discussion (10 Jul 2019)

Catherine Murphy: I see the logic in what is being proposed and I take the point about doing it in a proactive rather than a reactive way. There is a three year workforce plan to be presented annually to the Minister. When the commercial is separated from the non-commercial it is more dependent on the Department to provide resources. If those resources are not provided amply at the outset it is very...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the Air Navigation and Transport Bill 2019: Discussion (10 Jul 2019)

Catherine Murphy: Perhaps my visual idea of this is wrong, but both the entities could be in the same building. Is that how this will play out in the short term?
