Joan Burton: ...of the city, to step in. She should use the great power that she has for a period of years to do something to save two really important features of Dublin. What progress has been made on Moore Street? I thought the Minister was to take some additional initiatives.

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Urban Development (6 Nov 2019)

Joan Burton: ..., artists and the local community, fall into ruin. The Minister is missing an enormous opportunity, maybe through a lack of imagination. I would like to know what are the next steps for Moore Street. Is Moore Street just being handed over to Dublin City Council? I would be sad if that was the case because the Government of which I was a member bought and secured the purchase of the...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Urban Development (6 Nov 2019)

Joan Burton: This question relates to the historic markets in Dublin city. I am asking specifically about the Iveagh Market and the Moore Street market. The Minister has indicated previously that she has had some discussions on Moore Street with Dublin City Council. It would be a gross understatement to say that both Moore Street and the Iveagh Market are in a sorry state. They are in a vicious circle...

Large numbers of young people have no awareness that buying items, particularly alcohol and cigarettes, from the equivalent of the back of a van, or walking down to Moore Street or other market areas throughout the State and buying items the provenance of which they are unsure but which are much cheaper have serious social and economic consequences.

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Other Questions: National Monuments (20 Jun 2017)

Joan Burton: I am not quite clear which Minister will respond, although would be welcome, but I ask about the extensive report, The Moore Street Report - Securing History, on securing the future of the battlefield areas beside the GPO, rebuilding Moore Street as a trading and food market for Dublin and for visitors to Dublin, and reinvigorating the area. I am shocked the Minister has not yet brought this...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Other Questions: National Monuments (20 Jun 2017)

Joan Burton: If the Minister of State cares to take a walk down Moore Street and the lanes running between the GPO and Moore Streets, he will note that it is an area in total crisis in which Moore Street, as a vibrant street market, and the traders who have traded inter-generationally there are on their last legs. A great deal of work was done by a diverse group, ranging from relatives of the 1916...

Joan Burton: I would be perfectly happy to contact the Minister to see whether the Deputies' access can be facilitated. I have had the privilege of visiting the different houses. As Moore Street is where I always did my shopping as a child, I remember the houses. From what I witnessed during my brief visit, they are in an extraordinarily fragile state. I hope that agreement can be reached with all the...

Order of Business (14 Jan 2016)

Joan Burton: I have had a very long-standing interest in Moore Street and have had the privilege of being in Nos. 14, 15, 16 and 17 Moore Street. I have also had the opportunity to look very closely at the plans proposed by the various historical experts and public bodies which will undertake the work. While not everybody agrees with this, the proposals rank alongside what I have seen done in similar...

Macro-Economic and Fiscal Outlook: Statements (27 Oct 2010)

Joan Burton: ...to hurry up and take the last remaining opportunity to use the tax shelters to which I refer in order to minimise their exposure for tax. These advertisements reminded me of the slogan employed by Moore Street traders in the week prior to Christmas and encouraging people to "buy the last of the Cheeky Charlies". Tax experts are exhorting people to avail of the last of the tax breaks...
