Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Capital Projects and Operations: Iarnród Éireann (24 Jan 2024)

Róisín Garvey: In Clare, we care. Cooraclare actually. I have seen a revolution in rail. I have used the train regularly for the past 15 years. It was a lonely place for the first 12 of those years. What has happened in the last three years nearly brings a tear to my eye. The changes Irish Rail has brought around are unbelievable, in no small way due to Mr. Meade having a vision and growing up in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Capital Projects and Operations: Iarnród Éireann (24 Jan 2024)

Róisín Garvey: It is phenomenal. It used to be just a few people with a free pass and me. Irish Rail has given people confidence in trains again. Limerick Station looks amazing. It finally has decent coffee, which is a big one for me with early trains. I wish to ask a few questions. The reopening of Cratloe train station is key. I drove to Limerick the other day. I would normally get the train from...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (22 Jan 2024)

Róisín Garvey: It is a pure honour to be in Senator Norris's company. It did not happen half as much as I would have liked it to have happened. I remember the day I was called up to the Seanad, the first person I thought of was him. I thought he was an inspiring person and that I might actually get to meet him and be in the same room as him. I was completely starstruck. I remember being a very young...

Seanad: An Bille um an Naoú Leasú is Tríocha ar an mBunreacht (An Teaghlach), 2023: An Dara Céim - Thirty-ninth Amendment of the Constitution (The Family) Bill 2023: Second Stage (22 Jan 2024)

Róisín Garvey: It is great this is happening because any young person I have spoken to about this is amazed there is even a debate about it. They cannot believe this archaic wording is only now being challenged in any shape or form. They are delighted to hear it is happening now and are coming to me saying they want to canvass with me and get involved in the referendum canvass, which is interesting. I...

Seanad: An Bille um an Daicheadú Leasú ar an mBunreacht (Cúram), 2023: An Dara Céim - Fortieth Amendment of the Constitution (Care) Bill 2023: Second Stage (22 Jan 2024)

Róisín Garvey: We already had a debate on the family in respect of the first amendment so I will not go there. The Seanad is supposed to stick to the amendment being debated. The Constitution currently states: "In particular, the State recognises that by her life within the home, woman gives to the State a support without which the common good cannot be achieved." That is straightforward. The...

Róisín Garvey: It is proposed to remove the reference to the woman's life within the home and recognise the value of care and support which family members give to one another and which are a foundation for solidarity and cohesion within our society. I will say it again: a woman's place is wherever she bloody well wants to be. I do not appreciate Senator McDowell telling me that women should be at home.
