Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (2 Apr 2019)

James Reilly: As noted by other speakers, this is World Autism Day. It is now 21 months since this House unanimously passed a Bill dealing with the need for a national autism strategy. To say we are disappointed that there has been no movement on the Bill and that I fail to understand why it has not reached Dáil Éireann is an understatement. Many people suffer as a consequence of the condition...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: General Scheme of the Companies (Corporate Enforcement Authority) Bill 2018: Discussion (Resumed) (2 Apr 2019)

James Reilly: I welcome the witnesses and thank them for their presentations. As previous speakers said, there is a sense out there that corporate white-collar crime does not get pursued in the same way as other crime. I very much welcome the report and many of the recommendations in it. The witnesses speak specifically to two areas where they feel the power is available to the Central Bank to impose...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: General Scheme of the Companies (Corporate Enforcement Authority) Bill 2018: Discussion (Resumed) (2 Apr 2019)

James Reilly: If the witnesses do not mind, I will read their response in the Official Report. I am concerned that we have made an impact and that it is not the case that while we have the laws, as Mr. Egan said, but the question is whether they are being implemented by the courts. I apologise as I must go to vote.

Seanad: Civil Liability (Capping of General Damages Bill) 2019: Second Stage (28 Mar 2019)

James Reilly: I ask the Chair to alert me if I am still speaking with one minute to go. I hope not to be. I welcome the Minister to the House. He is a regular visitor. I welcome this Bill, which has been proposed by Senator Lawlor. It is an important Bill because it highlights an issue that is serious for many small businesses in this country. I want to state at the outset that victims of accidents...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (13 Mar 2019)

James Reilly: I wish to raise a deeply disturbing issue, namely, the report from the prison visiting committee from 2017 relating to female prisoners at the Dóchas detention centre in Dublin in which allegations are made of inappropriate behaviour of male staff towards female prisoners, including withholding certain privileges and items to achieve something about which we can only speculate. This is...

There have been numerous meetings and supports put in place for business, as Senator Richmond has said, through the local enterprise offices, LEOs,...

Seanad: Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (Consequential Provisions) Bill 2019: Committee and Remaining Stages (13 Mar 2019)

James Reilly: There is a problem with the amendment insofar as it seeks to impose regulations on the North of Ireland, which is outside of our jurisdiction, but I will be advised by the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment in that regard.

Seanad: Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (Consequential Provisions) Bill 2019: Second Stage (12 Mar 2019)

James Reilly: This is a difficult time for these islands and for Europe. One is very conscious of how delicate the situation is. I thank the Minister of State, Deputy McEntee, for all her endeavours in Europe to date on this issue. Both the Taoiseach and the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade have been very sensitive in their negotiations and all their utterances to date. I hope I...

James Reilly: As always.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (7 Mar 2019)

James Reilly: I also decry and deplore the comments made by Karen Bradley. I fail to see how she can ever regain the confidence of nationalists and families of those who suffered during the Troubles. Have we forgotten Bloody Sunday? Have we forgotten the Miami Showband and all the other issues? She needs to consider her position. We decried the actions of a Sinn Féin MP in this House and he later...
