Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Nature Restoration Target and General Scheme of the Veterinary Medicinal Products, Medicated Feed and Fertilisers Regulation Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed) (19 Oct 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank all the witnesses and the organisations here, especially Macra na Feirme. It is grand to see young farmers here who are concerned and who hope they can live out their lives farming. At one time it used to be a privilege, an honour and an advantage when the farm was given to the young fella that inherited the farm. It was an advantage for a long time but now it is a millstone around...

Danny Healy-Rae: -----that are going on. There has been no proper debate on this. All I am asking is that the people of Ireland be treated fairly. What I see in Kerry is replicated around the country in other counties. Every fella must look after his own. Whether Government or Opposition Deputies or Senators, we must all join together to ensure that fairness is meted out. We are all on the same page...

Danny Healy-Rae: I am very concerned about this fertiliser register. Many farmers in my area are seriously concerned because they need fertiliser to maintain the level of stocking they have today. Without it, there will be a reduction in their herds. It again looks like we are going backwards. We will be in the same situation we were in during the early 1970s, when everyone knew how many cows the grass in...

Danny Healy-Rae: I will ask for clarification if I may regarding what Mr. McCormack said about farmers needing to be told in May or June how much fertiliser they have left that they can buy. They need to be told by their distributor, whether it is Kerry Co-Operative Creameries or another co-operative, before they run out or they will have nothing to spread in July or August in terms of fertiliser, silage or...

Domestic Electricity and Gas Disconnections: Motion [Private Members] (18 Oct 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: I thank Sinn Féin for bringing this matter to the floor of the Dáil because it is very important. The Government has to accept that since it closed down Lanesborough and Shannonbridge power stations in the middle of the country, electricity has increased every whole day. As the cost of generating electricity had gone up so much, we were all resigned to the fact that we would have...

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to talk on this very important topic. I welcome anything that would help tourism in the country and, indeed, in Kerry. All of us are privileged to be elected to this Chamber to represent the people who elected us from whatever part of the country. However, I feel that being a Deputy from Kerry, I have an advantage because I am representing the best county...
