- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (29 Jun 2017)
Seán Fleming: We brought representatives from the institution before the committee. At our previous meeting, we decided that the institute certainly had to feature in the report.

I have mixed views on this. When I am given...

- Topical Issue Debate: Electricity Transmission Network (27 Jun 2017)
Seán Fleming: I publicly invite the Minister to visit the site. The Minister, Deputy Flanagan, may have already invited him personally. The most upsetting point is that EirGrid has made a massive mistake. It knows this mistake cannot be rectified. A construction management plan cannot be submitted in an area covered by an appropriate assessment after work has commenced. It has been dishonest in its...

- Topical Issue Debate: Electricity Transmission Network (27 Jun 2017)
Seán Fleming: I spoke briefly to the Minister last Thursday about the unauthorised development by EirGrid of an electricity substation and electricity lines at Coolnabacca, County Laois. It is not just a question of a breach of planning laws. This is a situation where the actions of EirGrid have been contemptuous. It has broken the law, disregarded the local community and been dishonest in its public...
