Flood Insurance Bill 2021: Second Stage [Private Members] (15 Jun 2023)

Ivana Bacik: I am glad to support this Bill. I will speak a little about its history, which the Minister of State also referred to. It is important that this issue is addressed and it is disappointing to see a further delay being proposed by the Government, given this legislation has had a long genesis, as the Deputy said. The background to this, as we all know, is that the planet is getting hotter....

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Climate Action Plan (15 Jun 2023)

Ivana Bacik: I thank the Minister for outlining progress. He referred to progress on retrofitting and heat pumps. We need to see more ambition and urgency if we are to meet the target of 500,000 homes retrofitted by 2030. We certainly support that, and we support strenuous efforts being made to reach the target.

Ivana Bacik: In a recent leaflet the Taoiseach distributed in Dublin West crime statistics for the Blanchardstown area were outlined. It appears from that leaflet that crime rates are up in his constituency of Dublin West.

Indeed, is it a proposal that has been put forward across the labour movement. I would like a clear...
