Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Rockall Island Ownership (12 Jun 2019)

Martin Ferris: When the Minister, Deputy Creed, returns he should sit down with all the representatives of the various parties and brief us thoroughly on what is happening and what he intends to do.

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Rockall Island Ownership (12 Jun 2019)

Martin Ferris: I heard about this on the news last Friday, the same as every other Deputy in the Chamber. It is disgraceful that this has been going on for two years. I have been the fisheries spokesperson for my party since I first came in here in 2002 and not once was I informed that this was going on or of the problems that exist. I am not really surprised. Successive Governments have behaved...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: School Placement (30 May 2019)

Martin Ferris: Given that the Minister of State is dealing with a similar situation, I am sure he is aware of the concerns and associated problems. In the area in question, there are three secondary schools - two in Killorglin and one in Milltown. There is no short-term solution; it must be planned and carefully considered. In Killorglin, given that there has been an increase in the population of well...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: School Placement (30 May 2019)

Martin Ferris: I want to raise an issue that has been ongoing for some time in Milltown, County Kerry. I refer to the Presentation secondary school facilities, the Nagle Rice primary school and the lack of places within the former for young children coming out of the latter. They are unable to get places in the secondary school because there are none. All of this goes back to the huge population growth...

Rural and Community Development: Statements (10 Apr 2019)

Martin Ferris: I live in rural Ireland. I love rural Ireland. It is a way of life that I was born into and grew up in. I have witnessed a significant decline in opportunities in rural Ireland, a total change in the environment compared to 20, 30 or 40 years ago. An awful lot of it is down to the organisation of our people. If someone needs a job they have to go to where the jobs are. The biggest...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Autism Support Services (10 Apr 2019)

Martin Ferris: Certainly, the response of the Minister of State is no comfort to the parents of autistic children in Kerry. The Minister of State said that the facility was built for nine people and that the standard regulation within HIQA is for four people. I have been told that the facility is capable of meeting the HIQA regulations limiting the number to four residents. One thing that disappoints...

Martin Ferris: Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCeann Comhairle. At the outset, I pay tribute to Margaretta D’Arcy, who was imprisoned for her opposition to the use of Shannon Airport to transport combat troops from the USA to the battlefield, and from the battlefield back to the USA.
