Cathal Crowe: ...of their chief executive. I would say this is quite rare in an organisation. He has literally worked from the floor up. He has a very important role and a busy role.

Cathal Crowe: ...might get a bus once or twice a month, but my dad had to get one lately and did not have a clue when he got on the bus what to do. He was fumbling in his pockets for change and wondering if he had to tap a card. It can be confusing for someone who does not use a bus very often. Where is the bus stop?

Cathal Crowe: ...that are available. I am always loyal to Shannon and would rather pay the extra buck to fly out of the airport. That is not felt everywhere in the country but it is certainly felt in the mid-west. We need to tap into that and Mr. Ó Céidigh is the man to lead from the helm. A week ago, the Minister for Transport, Deputy Eamon Ryan, was before the committee and we discussed...

Cathal Crowe: ...If you flush a toilet in these towns and villages, it goes down to a gravel soak pit, into a stream, down to the local lake, and ultimately, the population is consuming that same water from their taps somewhere along the food chain sometime later on the same day. In County Clare, villages such as Broadford, which the Minister visited just a few weeks ago, Carrigaholt, Doolin, Cooraclare,...

You arrive, tap in, take the e-scooter and return it. It is a fantastic idea. Ford is looking to engage with our committee and with the Department. I will propose something to the Minister. More than a...

Cathal Crowe: ...On the points made by Ms Rea, as a person who has been in maternity hospitals a few times, I found that it is very hard to identify who is who. They are all wearing scrubs. I remember going down corridors and tapping a person on the shoulder, but they could have been a cleaning attendant, kitchen staff, an obstetrician, or someone on their way down to deliver an antenatal class. It is...

In Clare, there are a number of cables in the ground that NBI is not allowed to tap into. Perhaps the delegates could comment on this. Ballygirreen in Newmarket-on-Fergus strikes me as an example. The Irish Aviation Authority has its radio centre there to capture air...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (22 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: ...it goes into an antiquated septic tank, while at worst, it goes into a gravel soak pit. It all ends up in the drinking water supply that the same people drink in the evenings when they turn on the tap. I ask that the development of sewerage in such villages be expedited over the lifetime of the Government. It should give us the 21st-century, or even the 20th-century, sewerage...
