- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (31 Mar 2022)

- Seanad: Support to Ukraine: Motion (30 Mar 2022)
Rónán Mullen: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire Stáit. Last Friday evening, I was in the town of Ballgar, near to my home place, taking part in a table quiz in support of a journey that was going to be made from Ballygar to bring important food, medical and other supplies to Ukraine. The following evening, I was cycling through Ballygar on my bike. I had previously had an idea in my head that this...
- Seanad: Health (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2022: Committee Stage (29 Mar 2022)
Rónán Mullen: I will be very brief. Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire.

My central point was that I am concerned about the ruling out of order of these amendments because I believe they were sufficiently relevant. I disagree with my colleague, Senator Seery Kearney, on that. She has, of course, grabbed the headline of the...

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Mar 2022)
Rónán Mullen: Senator O’Loughlin mentioned Fórsa. In another context, I see that Fórsa raised €250,000 for the Ukraine appeal among its members, and that was topped up by a further €250,000, amounting to a €500,000. I say "Well done" to Fórsa and its members. The Senator raised a good point about the census. Although there is another dimension to this which...
