Seanad: Disability Bill 2004: Second Stage (Resumed). (2 Jun 2005)

Cyprian Brady: I welcome the Minister of State to the House. I also welcome this opportunity to speak on the Bill. We must acknowledge that successes have been achieved in this area following inadequate investment, care and attention being given to it over many years. There is a genuine fear among the disabled community and their families that access by them to adequate treatment and resources is not and...

I commend the person who compiled the motion because it captures concisely and accurately the seriousness with which this and previous Governments have taken the issue. Until the events of 11 September 2001, the idea of Sellafield and the possible...

Seanad: Anti-Social Behaviour: Motion. (11 May 2005)

Cyprian Brady: Instead of shouting at one another, it would be more beneficial if we put forward constructive views. It is our job to put our shoulders to the wheel in order to introduce legislative programmes that benefit the public we are here to serve. It is unfair to suggest, as the motion does, that the Minister has been sitting on his hands during his period in office. This month alone, the Joint...

Cyprian Brady: I thank Senator Kett for sharing his time with me and welcome the Minister of State to the House. I congratulate the Minister, Deputy Michael McDowell, for the personal passion he has shown in dealing with this subject. His address to the House earlier was eloquent. I sought a definition of anti-social behaviour and the best one I came up with was in a Dublin City Council policy document...

Seanad: Road Safety: Motion. (27 Apr 2005)

Cyprian Brady: I welcome the Minister to the House and the opportunity to speak on the motion.

The Minister outlined the road safety strategies that have been put in place, which focus on education, enforcement, engineering and legislation. It is widely...

Cyprian Brady: I am grateful for an opportunity to debate the issue of accident and emergency services and welcome the Minister of State to the House. I congratulate the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children on putting herself forward for a portfolio which everybody accepts is particularly difficult. As is evident from the contributions, Senators on all sides accept and realise that problems remain...

Seanad: Order of Business. (19 Apr 2005)

Cyprian Brady: I congratulate the Garda on today's seizure of a quantity of drugs, cash and guns in the north of Dublin city. It is one of a number of recent seizures but its significance is that it highlights the link with organised crime and the blurring of the line between so-called paramilitarism and drug dealing, or death dealing as it is called around town. Will the Leader organise a debate on the...

Seanad: Special Educational Needs: Motion. (13 Apr 2005)

Cyprian Brady: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire Stáit, Deputy de Valera, and I congratulate her on her progress in the Department.

This side of the House has always recognised that this country's most important assets are its young people and the...
