Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Departmental Schemes (5 Jul 2022)

Neale Richmond: I appreciate the opportunity to come in on this. I thank the Minister for her kind words. More importantly, I thank her for driving this through with the Government. This is fundamentally a very important scheme, not just for the work it will do but also as a demonstration that crime does not pay. Does the Minister agree that perhaps this could be viewed as a pilot scheme? While the...

Defence Forces: Motions (5 Jul 2022)

Neale Richmond: I appreciate the opportunity to contribute to this debate. While I agree with and support the three motions before us, I am slightly disappointed that we are only now moving from participating in one PESCO project out of a total of 60 to five projects. That is grossly unambitious. If we are serious about the security of our State and the European Union and if we believe in the true essence...

The expeditious nature and requirement of passing this legislation is not lost on anyone in this House, but there are a few points and questions I wish to put to the Minister and the Minister of State, and perhaps they could respond in due course. We should never let a...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ukraine War (28 Jun 2022)

Neale Richmond: Briefly, I thank the Minister very much for that fulsome reply. When he mentions ambulances, a question I would put to the Minister for Justice, Deputy McEntee, is to ask that An Garda Síochána might follow the example of the PSNI, which has been asked by the Ukrainian police to send surplus equipment. In the Minister's own opinion, does he believe that we could be doing more? He...
