Anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement: Statements (26 Apr 2023)

Martin Browne: The Good Friday Agreement at 25 years is an endorsement of how peace, when it is pursued by all, is something that can be attained and can change lives and communities. When the painstaking negotiations were taking place that common goal of peace kept matters progressing to a stage when achievement was possible. That is the value of all sides pursuing the one objective. It is a common...

Martin Browne: My question is for the Minister of State, Deputy Butler. I want to raise my concerns about the future of St. Patrick's Hospital in Cashel and the services currently operating out of there.

Rent Reduction Bill 2023: Second Stage [Private Members] (26 Apr 2023)

Martin Browne: Like other Deputies, every day I deal with families who are finding it impossible to find rental properties that are any way affordable. The low availability of rental properties coupled with incredibly high rents relating to those properties that are available often results in these families living in totally unsuitable properties that are not fit for human habitation. I have seen the...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Road Projects (20 Apr 2023)

Martin Browne: I thank the Minister of State for taking this matter, although I had thought the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, might do so. This issue has been raised repeatedly by me and other Tipperary Deputies. It relates to the Tipperary town bypass, which was first promised 40 years ago. Anybody who knows the town can see how it is absolutely choked up with heavy traffic throughout the town. All the...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Road Projects (20 Apr 2023)

Martin Browne: I appreciate that not every project can get funding, but we are talking about small money to progress this project. The people of Tipperary and its surrounds have been struggling for too long. As I said, there have been 40 years of successive Governments telling them they will get a bypass. This is all for the sake of an additional €2.25 million, a pittance in the current climate....
