Search for "public services card" speaker:Paul McAuliffe (KildareStreet.com)

Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts Vote 26 - Office of Minister for Education (16 May 2024): Paul McAuliffe: It is an incredibly slow take-up. My understanding is that it involves the teacher first making an application for a public services card, which often involves them doing it on a day when they are not working because that is how it operates. Is anything being done with regard to the public services card in order for teachers to be able to access that service within the school?

KildareStreet search is case-insensitive, and tries to match all the search terms within a document.
To exclude a word from your search, put a minus ("-") sign in front, for example to find documents containing the word "representation" but not the word "taxation":
representation -taxation
To search for an exact phrase, use quotes (""). For example to find only documents contain the exact phrase "Mahon Tribunal":
"mahon tribunal"
If you want to search for words only when they're used near each other in the text, use "NEAR". For example, to find documents containing the word "elephant" near the word "room":
elephant NEAR room
If the search phrase matches (part of) a TD or Senator's name, their own page will appear as the top result, but will also search speeches made by them too.
From a person's page, you have the option to search only their speeches.
