Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Nov 2022)

Regina Doherty: ...is only one week between us but by Jove she has some legacy and career to date for a woman so young. It would be a lovely thing to recognise her connections with Ireland and her granny and grandad who were from Kerry and Ballinasloe. I can certainly write to her and ask her to consider visiting us here and with the permission of the Leas-Chathaoirleach and the Cathaoirleach to address...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (27 Jan 2022)

Regina Doherty: ...elsewhere. I thank her for her comments today. I will certainly look for a debate on youth mental health services. If she does not mind, I do not think we should just have a debate on the Kerry case. What we read was shocking beyond words. The father of young Jason was on the radio this morning. I do not know if the Senators heard him. I am not sure that this is just a local issue....

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (9 Dec 2021)

Regina Doherty: ...this week, but they need to see action and a plan. The Senator is correct and he is going to raise this issue on a monthly basis here, which will be very worthwhile. Senator Kyne asked for a debate on greenways, and acknowledged the south Kerry project, which was a test case, from a legal perspective or a planning perspective. I will arrange that after Christmas. The request is in,...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (14 Jun 2021)

Regina Doherty: ...connectivity on Saturday. I am not down-playing the importance - it absolutely important - but we are a small country that heavily relies on international connectivity. A person can drive from Kerry. I am not saying we should not have connectivity from our airlines but, with the exception of colleagues in the House and Members of the Dáil, I do not hear anyone talking about the...

Seanad: European Digital Green Certificate: Statements (7 May 2021)

Regina Doherty: ...who have a responsibility to deliver the restart programme for our aviation industry and to roll out the EU green certificate. There are eight flights leaving Dublin Airport tomorrow; two of these are going to Kerry, two to Donegal, three to America and one to London.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (26 Feb 2021)

Regina Doherty: ...he has had in the past. On behalf of all of us, we wish him a speedy recovery. We want to see him in here every day that we sit, please God. We wish him well. Senator O'Loughlin mentioned the events at the Kerry Group. It is unique that an organisation that has received so much aid and assistance from the agencies on behalf of the State would do what it is doing. I will ask the office...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (10 Nov 2020)

Regina Doherty: I have no skin in the game between Cork or Kerry but it gave great joy in our house and it was something to shout out at on the telly at the weekend. Sport is definitely something to be welcomed. A number of colleagues asked for debates and I will put in requests immediately. A number of them are tied together and that might be significant with regard to maybe having a day-long debate on...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (16 Oct 2020)

Regina Doherty: ...convenience and I will do this for Senator Carrigy as quickly as I can. On the two amendments to the Order of Business, I will take the second one first. Unfortunately the Minister, Deputy Foley, is in Kerry today. Even if I was of a mind to try to facilitate Senator Craughwell's amendment, I cannot get hold of her as she is in Kerry and there is no feasible way for her to be here today....

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Jul 2020)

Regina Doherty: ...at coming to Meath to certainly do so. It is important for us all to recognise that we need to give each other in different counties a dig out. People are welcome to counties Roscommon, Galway or Kerry. We have a beautiful island. I am assured we are getting beautiful weather from next week so we should encourage each other to go to every county. The suggestion made by Senator...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (9 Jul 2020)

Regina Doherty: ...We need to make sure that these people are given proper routes to establish a proper, new lifestyle for them. I join with Senator Warfield in saying "bravo". They did a wonderful job, as they did in Kerry, Limerick, Galway and all the other counties.I am learning this job. I did not realise I had to answer everybody's questions every day and I ask Senators for a little latitude until I...
