Seanad: Address to Seanad Éireann by Mr. John Horan (29 Jan 2019)

Rose Conway Walsh: ...ticket holders, they rely on the good will of stewards. Will the GAA consider introducing a disability card as part of a season ticket and perhaps extending that to carers? The GAA should also bear in mind the problem of guide dog users trying to access grounds through turnstiles. Disability is not confined to wheelchair users. I have many other questions and regret that I do not have...

Seanad: Order of Business (11 Oct 2018)

Rose Conway Walsh: I want to speak about the autism assistance dogs programme provided by Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland. Yesterday, we learned about the programme at a presentation given in the AV Room in Leinster House. The programme has transformed the lives of children with autism and that of their families.

Rose Conway Walsh: ...women came out and I said it was probably because they had suffered most and had suffered in silence in many ways because of the pressure to conform in many rural areas and have the 2.4 children, the dog and everything else.

I think people will really despise the way the term "common culture" is used as a fancy...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Motor Insurance Costs: Minister of State at the Department of Finance (1 Jun 2017)

Rose Conway Walsh: ...the committee on a quarterly basis. It is a useful exercise in terms of evaluating where we are. However, it does not fill me with confidence. It appears to me that the tail is wagging the dog in the context of the insurance industry. The insurance companies continue to laugh at us. It is obvious that it appears to them that they got away with it. We had our consultation and...

Seanad: Order of Business (26 Oct 2016)

Rose Conway Walsh: ...and they know that people do not want them. Imagine what that feels like. As a nation, we know what is was like when the signs in the doorways of our once unfriendly neighbours bore the words "No dogs and no Irish". How quickly we forget. It is no longer good enough for us to say that this is a complex problem and to wring our hands.Leadership on this issue must come from those in...
