Seanad: Social Welfare (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2015: Second Stage (15 Apr 2015)

Marie Moloney: I welcome the Minister of State to the House. I always feel that when he attends here he takes on board what we say. He has the good trait of listening attentively to what all Senators have to say. The Bill contains some positive proposals which I welcome. On the other hand, there are a number of proposals that I wish to discuss in further detail with the Minister of State. One of the...

Seanad: One-Parent Family Supports: Motion (15 Apr 2015)

Marie Moloney: ...for a third level registration and maintenance grant. However, if such person transfers to the back-to-education allowance he or she while eligible for a grant in respect of the registration fee is not eligible for a maintenance grant, which would be essential to their continuing in education. I am delighted to note from the Minister's speech that this matter has been addressed and there...

Seanad: HSE National Service Plan 2015: Statements (20 Jan 2015)

Marie Moloney: The shortage of nurses will cause mayhem and, again, that refers to the point made about nurses not paying an increased registration fee. I am sure we do not have a backup plan to deal with the shortage of nurses and I ask the Minister to intervene in the matter as quickly as possible. The people of this country have paid over and over for the mistakes of others. It looks like these nurses...

Seanad: HSE National Service Plan 2015: Statements (20 Jan 2015)

Marie Moloney: ...would like to be addressed as well. I welcome the proposal to implement free GP care for those under six years old. How are the discussions progressing with the Irish Medical Organisation on the fee-setting process? Are we nearing its conclusion as we cannot implement the scheme until the agreement is reached? I am sure the Minister will provide an update. It must be going well if we...

Seanad: Vehicle Clamping Bill 2014: Committee Stage (15 Oct 2014)

Marie Moloney: ...to release a car. In that way people will not have to wait for hours for their car to be released. If the clampers do not return within the required time, there should be a reduction in the fee or the fee should be waived. That could be inserted in what Senator O'Neill referred to as the charter of rights. The NTA might examine the issue and, as the Minister suggested, the Oireachtas...

Seanad: Vehicle Clamping Bill 2014: Second Stage (7 Oct 2014)

Marie Moloney: Could the Minister address the issue of methods of payment for people who cannot afford the clamping fee and do not have the money on them? Also, can we put a limit on the time it should take for clampers to come back and unclamp a car?

Seanad: Order of Business (Resumed) (4 Jun 2014)

Marie Moloney: ...away. The staff concession was cost-neutral to Aer Lingus, because staff members do not get on a particular flight but remain on standby until a seat becomes available and then pay the taxes and fees. Therefore, the concession did not cost the company anything. As a matter of fact, Aer Lingus is punishing people for exercising their democratic right and has pandered to the request made...

Seanad: Youth Guarantee and Rent Supplement: Statements (28 May 2014)

Marie Moloney: ...a week. When the course came to an end recently his work experience placement employer offered him summer work to keep him going until he starts his next course, which is an intensive course. The fees were funded by Bord Fáilte and the course was provided by the IT in Tralee. He was in an awful state when he came to see me because if he took up the offer of summer work he would not...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection: Education Progamme Fees: Quality and Qualifications Ireland (19 Feb 2014)

Marie Moloney: ...go through them in due course. The youth guarantee is being rolled out all over the country now. We want to get people back into education, further training, apprenticeships or work. Will the fees affect that and hinder people in going back to education? It is vital that they do go back to education. Local to me there is a nursing home with over 100 staff, all of whom must train to...

Seanad: Youth Guarantee: Statements (5 Feb 2014)

Marie Moloney: ...years who has completed a course at third level but has been unable to find a job in the area of his or her competence and decides to retrain. In such circumstances, he or she will face the prospect of paying fees on the basis that he or he received a grant or free fees for the previous course. The Minister should consider introducing an exemption for such persons under the youth...

Marie Moloney: ...them were trained via the hospital system while others have gone through the CAO system to acquire their qualifications. I am delighted they can move freely in the EU. What has the registration fee been set at? I presume they only have to pay the fee in one country and can still travel and work in others. Senator MacSharry referred to the regulation of herbalists. Has the Minister...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection: Forthcoming Employment, Social Policy, Health and Consumer Affairs Council: Discussion with Minister for Social Protection (26 Sep 2012)

Marie Moloney: ...at the rate they contributed. I have done some investigation and understand the administration cost of these pensions is enormous. Would the Minister consider introducing an administration fee to help lighten the burden?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection: Budget 2013: Discussion with Minister for Education and Skills (19 Sep 2012)

Marie Moloney: ...With that, we may be able to utilise the services of an SNA for more than one child in the classroom rather than having them cleaning up the classroom. I am sure the Minister will look at that. Fee-paying schools is an issue but we will await the report on that. The Minister asked for suggestions as to how money could be saved. I am not sure whether this will save money but it should...

Seanad: Order of Business (22 Mar 2012)

Marie Moloney: ...in Ireland today can afford to leave that amount of money sitting in an account? We are hearing every day of the week that people cannot afford to pay the household charge and the registration fee in respect of septic tanks yet AIB is now requiring its customers to have €2,500 in their accounts in order to avail of free banking. The bank needs to get real. It is no longer a private...

Seanad: Order of Business (21 Mar 2012)

Marie Moloney: ...to make to the Minister. People who have paid their household charge should be given free radon testing in their houses. If the Minister could write off €45 from the septic tank registration fee with the swipe of a pen, he could write with that same pen that people should be given free radon testing in their houses. Areas along the west and east coasts show very high readings of...

Seanad: Order of Business (15 Sep 2011)

Marie Moloney: In last year's budget, the Minister increased the registration fee for colleges, which is now known as the student contribution, to €2,000, but said that only one member of the family will have to pay the increased rate. In recent weeks, I have come across a number of families with two or more students in college who have had to pay €2,000 each. They have been advised that the way in...
