Tribunal of Inquiry into certain matters relating to the Complaints Processes in the Defence Forces: Motion (24 Jan 2024)

Gary Gannon: Members of our Defence Forces have experienced some of the most egregious treatment and conditions of any workforce in our country’s history. It has been harrowing listening to the stories of the all-too-many members who were victims of a broken system. It was a system of abuse. Imagine how difficult it must have been to live through that trauma. It is for this reason I can act...

Gary Gannon: I would love to be sitting here today for post-European Council statements and talking about the plethora of different issues I would like to discuss in respect of migration, the supports we should be providing to those seeking sanctuary, accession candidates, artificial intelligence policy and rule of law violations.

Gaza and the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide: Motion [Private Members] (24 Jan 2024)

Gary Gannon: I begin with the words of the German playwright and poet Bertolt Brecht: The first time it was reported that our friends were being butchered there was a cry of horror.

When crimes begin to...

Gary Gannon: I thank the Minister of State for his response. Dublin City Council has done a lot of great work around the north inner city and the city more generally - there is no disputing that - but there has been an omission in respect of soccer pitches for predominantly working-class kids in and around the city centre. There is no 11-a-side pitch in the north inner city at all. There is an...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Sports Facilities (24 Jan 2024)

Gary Gannon: I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Malcolm Noonan, for being present for this Topical Issue. This is an issue I raised previously and it has still not been addressed.

Conflict in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory: Motion (23 Jan 2024)

Gary Gannon: I do not welcome that a motion for a debate on an issue of this importance was given to the Opposition at 1.50 p.m. today. We had less than one hour to draw up amendments.

The motion the Government has presented, in its current form, skirts...
