Europe Day: Statements (7 May 2025)

Réada Cronin: On Friday, 9 May, Europe marks the 75th anniversary of the Schuman declaration, a moment meant to usher in peace, human rights and solidarity in Europe. Those founding ideals lie in tatters. Peace in Europe did not hold, as anyone in the Balkans and Ukraine could tell us. When Russia invaded Ukraine, the EU stood united.

Report of the Farrelly Commission: Statements (1 May 2025)

Réada Cronin: Eight years and €13 million later, we are still in the dark about what Grace endured.

Réada Cronin: Yesterday, on World Autism Awareness Day, parents of neurodiverse children slept outside the Dáil for the second time this year. I went out to them after the voting block yesterday, so taken was I by their hard-hitting presentation in the audiovisual room yesterday. Many of these children have no school place for September. They are being denied fundamental human and educational...

Diverting Young People from Criminal Activity: Statements (2 Apr 2025)

Réada Cronin: It is clear that criminal activity among young people is on the rise but that did not happen in a vacuum. With increased reports of theft, fraud and sexual offences by teenagers aged 12 to 17 years of age, more needs to be invested in our young people to engage with them instead of treating them as social pariahs. Last week, I visited the Lough na Mona community centre in Leixlip, which is...
