Aindrias Moynihan: There is nothing unusual about different supply issues, but it is so much more intense now in respect of the breadth, number and range of drugs under pressure, for various different reasons, being so much wider now than what it would have been in other years.

Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Report of the Commission on Taxation and Welfare: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Feb 2023)

Aindrias Moynihan: Dr. O'Connor referred earlier to PRSI on earned income and on unearned income, and he made the distinctions on that.

I am trying to figure out why there would be a distinction there and they would be...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Housing Provision (9 Feb 2023)

Aindrias Moynihan: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as an eolas ansin. There is quite a bit of information on it.
