To ask the Minister for Health his plans to ensure approval is forthcoming for a request for additional funding of €1.8 million for Letterkenny University Hospital in order that the hospital can open an additional 20-bed ward and staff it appropriately to address an issue with persons having to wait on trolleys for hospital admission. [6111/18]

Questions on Promised Legislation (7 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: On the same issue, a number of farmers in Donegal were affected in the same way. I ask the Taoiseach to use his offices and work with the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine. We had this matter before the agriculture committee last week. It is essential that these farmers get a prompt answer and that fairness is brought to the system. I note the Taoiseach looked over his...

Questions on Promised Legislation (7 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: With new politics, it is important that Ministers are here to account for promised legislation. I could count on one hand the number of times the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine has been here. The Taoiseach might raise that with him to try to ensure there is better attendance.

Other Questions: Brexit Issues (7 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: The Minister is correct as SITA, Optibelt and Pramerica all have fine new premises. They are growing the work force and have tremendous workers and executives, driving those companies forward with the assistance of IDA Ireland. The Minister correctly points out that 70% of additional workers and employment comes from existing companies. Those companies would not be in Donegal if they had...

Other Questions: Brexit Issues (7 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: 38. To ask the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation her plans to minimise the impact of Brexit in County Donegal; the engagement she has had with the IDA and Enterprise Ireland to ensure they secure new investment in the county in view of Brexit; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [5761/18]

Other Questions: Brexit Issues (7 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: Coming from a Border county, the Minister knows the potential difficulty that Brexit poses for employment and the economy in Border counties if it does not work out well. That is even more so the case in County Donegal, which is probably the most exposed region of Europe to Brexit and therefore needs every prioritisation from the Government in order to address that situation.

Other Questions: Brexit Issues (7 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: I thank the Minister for her response. That there are more than 3,000 IDA client company jobs in Letterkenny shows what a good place Donegal can be in which to do business. It is a phenomenal number of jobs in IDA-supported companies, and those companies have been growing in recent years. They include SITA, Pramerica, Optum and Kirchoff, to name a small number of those which are continuing...

Order of Business (6 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: With regard to page 58 of the Programme for a Partnership Government and the commitment to build capacity in our hospitals, I raise again the issue of Letterkenny University Hospital. I have raised this several times before, including last week, and I raise it again because people are still on trolleys. People are still waiting for access to a bed in a hospital and people are still waiting...

Order of Business (6 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: It is time for an answer. If we cannot have it today, we need it immediately after this session from the Taoiseach.

Order of Business (6 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: I can assure the Taoiseach that is not the case. I have been asking for a month and there is no response. It is simply being ignored.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: I thank the officials for coming in and for their presentation today. It is a very timely meeting and it is important that we have it because it is crucial that the independent report commissioned by the Minister is moved on and that we see those recommendations acted upon and implemented. As I know, and Senator Mac Lochlainn and Deputy Pringle will know, there is potential in aquaculture,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Charlie McConalogue: I have a couple of other questions. I refer to foreshore licence application timelines and the implementation plan following on from the recommendations of the report. How are we going to implement it? The other thing is the six-month timeline. What issues does the witness feel are blocking that? Has the new aquaculture legislation started? The recommendation was that would commence...
