Issue of Writ: Meath By-election. (15 Feb 2005)

Johnny Brady: Deputy Mary Wallace has two minutes also. I would like to be associated with my colleague, the Minister, Deputy Noel Dempsey, in wishing John Bruton well. As a new Deputy coming in to this House, it was a pleasure working with him over the past eight years. He was very helpful. As a councillor since 1974, I have met with Mr. Bruton at different functions across the constituency, in particular...

Issue of Writ: Meath By-election. (15 Feb 2005)

Johnny Brady: As the Minister stated, we have delivered an enormous amount into County Meath since 1997. It would be marvellous to have another Deputy in a position to deliver more. I am sure it will happen. It is vital we elect a man who can deliver because none of the other candidates, if elected, will be in a position to deliver to County Meath in the same manner as myself, the Minister and Deputy Mary...

Order of Business. (22 Mar 2005)

Johnny Brady: I wish to be associated with the remarks of previous speakers in welcoming the two new Deputies and wishing them well. I have known Deputy McEntee for more than 30 years when I started to ramble around Nobber for reasons other than political ones. I got to know him then and we have been good friends since. I also know his father, Mr. Tony McEntee, very well. He represented the Irish Farmers'...

Fur Farming (Prohibition) Bill 2004: Second Stage. (22 Mar 2005)

Johnny Brady: I record my strong support for the Minister's position on this matter. The history of fur farming can be traced back to 1866 in the United States of America. It is a well established and highly regulated industry and gives valuable permanent and casual employment in some of the most disadvantaged areas of this country. A considerable amount of research has been undertaken into different...

Order of Business. (28 Apr 2005)

Johnny Brady: The Deputies opposite do not want to hear the truth.

Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2005: Second Stage (Resumed). (12 May 2005)

Johnny Brady: I am glad to speak on this Bill but I, like many others, have been badly affected by the change. Although I welcome two three seat constituencies in County Meath, I am disappointed some of the areas of north Meath, particularly my home area of Kells which I have served for almost 30 years as a county councillor, has been divided. It is unfair to the people of what is a quite rural area. My...

Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2005: Second Stage (Resumed). (12 May 2005)

Johnny Brady: This was my electoral area of Kells which runs from the far side of Oldcastle, past Mountnugent and up to Kingscourt on one side and back up to Ardee on the other side. As a Deputy, I was assigned that part of the Slane area with which Deputy O'Dowd would be very familiar. These areas have little in common with Ashbourne, Ratoath, Dunboyne or Dunshaughlin and it is unfortunate that the Kells...

Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2005: Second Stage (Resumed). (12 May 2005)

Johnny Brady: Before being interrupted by the Opposition, I was being complimentary to Deputy O'Dowd. I was surprised, but these things happen.

Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2005: Second Stage (Resumed). (12 May 2005)

Johnny Brady: In 1974, when I was elected to Meath County Council, part of the Kells area in north Meath was included in the constituency of Cavan. As I said, it helped to elect the great former Tánaiste, John Wilson, who held several ministerial posts, including education, and whose nephew is a Member of the Upper House. The other part of the Kells area was included in the constituency of Monaghan,...

School Transport. (24 May 2005)

Johnny Brady: I sympathise with the bereaved and wish the injured a speedy recovery. Yesterday was a black day for County Meath. We all recognise the effect this will have on the bereaved families and the other pupils. Like previous speakers, I compliment the staff of the emergency services on reacting so rapidly. Those to whom I spoke last night and others who were interviewed for radio had the highest...
