- Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (18 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: Budget 2024 will see a €200 million cut in funding for main road projects. This is a misguided decision by the Minister for Transport, Deputy Ryan, who has an overt influence on the Cabinet. It is the third consecutive year there has been this level of cuts to major infrastructure. Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, said there were four deaths on the N24 and 11 serious injuries...

- Driving Test Waiting Times: Motion [Private Members] (18 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: We tabled this motion in good faith. The Government has decided not to oppose it but it is a complete cop-out. It is an abject failure of the Department. I am disappointed that the Minister of State, Deputy Chambers, is not here for the reply. With the Chair's indulgence, I would like to sympathise with the families of the four young leaving certificate students from Clonmel. They...

- Funding for Persons with Disabilities: Motion [Private Members] (17 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: This month, my office received a response from the HSE in respect of a young child in my constituency, the parents of whom applied for an assessment to be carried out for disability services. The application for assessment was made in 2017 when the child was in senior infants. In September 2023, the mother of this child contacted me after her child had finished primary school and she could...
- Final Report of the Independent Scoping Exercise into the Circumstances surrounding the Death of Mr. Shane O'Farrell: Statements (17 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: I, too, welcome Lucia and Jim and their daughters, and, indeed, brothers, and their little grandchild today. They should not have to be here. What kind of a cabal of a country are we running? That is all I can call it. I have been in this House for 16 years and I have seen a litany of injustices and cover-ups, from Whiddy Island, ever before I came in here, to the Fr. Niall Molloy killing...

Mattie McGrath: The Burncourt regional water scheme services almost 4,000 houses and businesses in Cahir town, Ballylooby, Clogheen, Burncourt and Ballyporeen. There was a great announcement six years ago when that scheme was opened at a cost of €15.3 million for it and the Fethard scheme. The two schemes were designed and built to operate. A boil water notice has been in place since July. It is a...
- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (17 Oct 2023)
Mattie McGrath: I want to raise the serious situation in health. The ink was not dry on the budget when we heard on Friday evening about major freezes in the recruitment of junior doctors, home helps and in all those areas where people are needed at the front line to deal with the most basic needs. Where is the accountability and why do we not have questions with the Minister for Health and Mr. Watt, the...
