Seanad: Public Health (Tobacco Products and Nicotine Inhaling Products) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (28 Nov 2023)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I appreciate the Minister’s response. It was proportionate. The passage of this legislation as quickly as possible should be the priority of everybody in these Houses. I understand the Minister not wanting to pass comment while the public consultation process is under way. I appreciate that and hope that in the fullness of time, we will see this issue encapsulated in the second...

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I thank the Minister for coming to the Seanad to discuss this ground-breaking legislation. I commend him on introducing it because it is long overdue. It brings us into line with best practice in other leading European countries. The Minister has quite ably outlined the two aspects to this, the organ retention and post mortem side of it, and the organ donation side of it. As he mentioned,...

Seanad: Human Tissue (Transplantation, Post-Mortem, Anatomical Examination and Public Display) Bill 2022: Second Stage (22 Nov 2023)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: People are waiting on this. They have waited for this Bill for years. The Irish Kidney Association and many others have been working towards this day and the completion of this Bill. I commend the Minister on working so hard to bring this about. Organ donation has always been a difficult topic to discuss with next of kin because such discussions invariably happen in the context of a very...

Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Court Accommodation (8 Nov 2023)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: The Minister of State is very welcome. I realise this is not his Department so I appreciate his taking the time to come and answer this on behalf of the Minister for Justice. My Commencement concerns the long-awaited family law court complex at Hammond Lane. We are long past needing a new family law court complex for Dublin. Dolphin House and Phoenix House are not fit for purpose. The...

Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Court Accommodation (8 Nov 2023)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I am left feeling a bit cold after that answer, to be honest. It is not the Minister of State's fault - I know it is not his Department - but there was absolutely nothing in that that we did not know. I want to know why the projects were decoupled. When was that decision made? We all know the two Garda stations were decoupled. Why was that done? Why did the Minister say in October 2022...

Like everyone, I am devastated at the scale of human suffering since 7 October. We have all been looking at appalling images on our television screens, on our phones and in our newspapers....

Seanad: Provision of Free HRT Treatment: Motion [Private Members] (18 Oct 2023)

Lorraine Clifford-Lee: I thank our colleague Senator Pauline O'Reilly and her colleagues in the Green Party for proposing this very important motion. It is great to have the opportunity to discuss it, coincidentally on World Menopause Day. We cannot discuss women's health enough because such discussions were sorely lacking for years. It was never discussed in these Houses or beyond it and that has stored up an...
