Paul Daly: Does Ms Muldoon have confidence in the role of the VCI in policing this?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: The VCI is policing employees. It is not a case of it not having contact with the employer but of actually denying that the employer exists. How can the VCI have confidence in its role within the sector? The VCI is adamantly arguing that the fourth party does not exist in this scenario and that it is a three-way street. How can the VCI have confidence in its role in evaluating or policing...

Paul Daly: Ms Muldoon said that the VCI will regulate if practices are not fulfilling their duties. It is well documented, without mentioning specifics, that services have been withdrawn because of corporate ownership. Has the VCI imposed any sanctions on practices or on the relevant individuals who are on the council's register in response to that?

Paul Daly: These issues are in the public domain and are well documented.

Paul Daly: So if someone was a non-registered veterinary officer but was the employer or owner of the practice, how would he or she get paid in those circumstances?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: Does the council not have a role to play in regard to issues of the ownership of practices?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: In layman's terms, if the council is to represent its people, it has to have an input into ownership because this means that non-veterinary-owned practices will not be doing TB testing. We all know where that will lead so the council must have a role in that regard.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: That is a different ball game altogether. That is a very flippant answer.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: We are all answerable to banks in different scenarios. We could all say that somebody else owns our car or our house. That is a very flippant answer to what was a very serious question. It is an unacceptable answer.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: The bank was not doing Mr. Ó Scanaill's invoicing or his testing. It was not providing the service.

Paul Daly: One would have to be the employer.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: If one is employed by a corporate, one is not the employer so how does one get paid for doing TB testing?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: I rest my case. A corporate-owned practice cannot carry out TB testing so the large animal will be dropped. Such practices will not provide the service in an area because they cannot draw down wages for doing TB testing.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Veterinary Council of Ireland Report: Discussion (24 Sep 2019)
Paul Daly: We do not need clarification from the Department. What the Department is doing is black and white. The clarification must come from the Veterinary Council of Ireland. How is the council going to get over this hurdle? The Department is very clear that it will only pay an employer and it will only pay a veterinary practitioner. I am asking the Veterinary Council of Ireland how...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Forestry Sector and Climate Action Plan: Discussion (9 Jul 2019)
Paul Daly: I welcome the Minister of State and his officials. I thank the Minister of State for his comprehensive report. I would like a more detailed breakdown of the numbers. The Minister of State indicated that the target is 8,000 ha and that we are achieving 5,500 ha. When harvest is incorporated what is the net gain in new forestry? How many hectares of existing forest are being harvested...
