Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence: Statements (10 Jul 2025)

Jim O'Callaghan: ...rather than simply through a letter being sent in via a solicitor. This legislative reform is continuing. I have touched on the progress we are making to expand refuge accommodation but my Department is also examining proposals to develop a policy on removal orders to take offenders out of the home in high-risk domestic violence and domestic abuse cases, subject to legal considerations....

Jim O'Callaghan: ...strong data protection rights for citizens in line with the general data protection regulation, GDPR. Where potential issues are brought to our attention regarding our national transposing measures, we are happy to examine the issues and act where necessary, as we are doing in this instance.

Simon Harris: ...seen a level of growth, which should be an indication in and of itself as we carry out this review. Yes is the answer to the Deputy's question. We will ensure the community model is specifically examined in the context of that review and we will look at issues like core funding and high levels of administration and how that could be a barrier to an expansion of a sector doing good work...

Ceisteanna ó na Comhaltaí Eile - Other Members’ Questions (10 Jul 2025)

Carol Nolan: ...questions on the issue, the most recent in the past few days. I have been informed in response to one of these questions that while a final draft of the commissioned report on a systematic review to examine institutional, organisational and organised child abuse, including trafficking and exploitation of children and young people, has been received by the Department of children, it is...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (10 Jul 2025)

Ken O'Flynn: ..., no inquiries, no answers, no accountability and no justice. This case is not unknown to the public. The current chairperson of Tusla, Mr. Pat Rabbitte, commented publicly on this in the Irish Examiner in 2019: "It is deeply concerning that a whistleblower has been left without any financial income." Two former Ministers for children, Katherine Zappone and Deputy Roderic O'Gorman,...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions (10 Jul 2025)

Jerry Buttimer: I thank the Deputy who is right to raise this matter. He has raised it previously. I have asked the Department to examine this issue. The Irish Examiner recently had an interesting profile of the north side of Cork city. It is an issue I am concerned about. We need to have a serious conversation about it. The Glen Resource Centre has a good programme for the families of those in prison....

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh (Atógáil) - Priority Questions (Resumed): Trade Agreements (10 Jul 2025)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: ...to any potential impacts. In terms of the reciprocal tariffs, some progress has been made on the dairy side but perhaps less so on the whiskey side. Preparation on this needs to step up. The examination of potential supports for individual businesses is needed, whether it is export facilitation or whatever. Where is that at?

Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Disability Services (10 Jul 2025)

Eileen Lynch: ...cases where parents or care providers cannot provide transport, and given that many of these service users cannot use public transport, the possibility of residential care at that point has to be examined. I am aware of many families, particularly elderly care providers and parents, who are in that situation because transport is not available. Carers are already under pressure. Often,...

Mary Fitzpatrick: ...feel that they need the power to introduce a visitor tax that they can use to further enhance the city experience. I hope the Minister of State can advise the House on the work his Department has done to examine their proposal, his intentions and his Department's intentions to give powers to the local authorities to have revenue-raising within their own jurisdiction, how that might...

Mary Fitzpatrick: ...acting. It is a unique piece of theatre to be staged in Dublin. It is not for the faint-hearted. The acting is superb. It is incredibly witty and delivered with great emotion. Very weirdly, it examines the deepest and darkest elements of the human condition. I encourage everybody to support the Gate Theatre and see the play. It is an exceptional production. I wish it well with the run.

Seanad: Transport Policy: Statements (10 Jul 2025)

Nessa Cosgrove: ...all-Ireland rail review states the line will be extended from Athenry to Claremorris, but can we add the line from Claremorris to Sligo? Senator Duffy and I are like broken records here talking about this. Is there an opportunity to re-examine this? Just because there is a rail review does not mean the thinking is set in stone. Can the extension be reconsidered? It is only 75 km....

Seanad: Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Second Stage (10 Jul 2025)

Alice-Mary Higgins: To be very clear, what I said was that it was 40% and it was in some instances, whereas the Senator has twice now - if he examines the transcript, he will see what is correct-----

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025) See 1 other result from this debate

Eoin Ó Broin: I accept the technical explanation but would just make one point. I ask the Minister to examine the principle behind this amendment and to discuss it with the Minister for justice and also, in the course of his work as Minister for housing, with the relevant members of the Judiciary. We need to fix this bit of the system too. There is little value in having statutory timelines for...

All-Island Strategic Rail Review: Statements (Resumed) (9 Jul 2025)

Michael Collins: ...behalf of every rural community that does not have light rail. Rural Ireland has an entitlement to have some kind of transport service, at least to bring people to rail services. That is what we are examining. I am involved with this locally. There is no point in my dreaming that rail will come back to Bantry and Schull, where it was in the 1850s, because we seem to have no money now....

Post-European Council: Statements (9 Jul 2025) See 1 other result from this debate

Thomas Byrne: Ukraine is a top priority. I told ambassador Gerasko that was the case. I had an article published in the Irish Examiner this week reflecting on my visit there. I certainly encourage Members of the Oireachtas to visit Ukraine if it is safe to do so. It is never 100% safe, but it should be organised at an Oireachtas level. On my impression of the situation in Ukraine, what really struck...

Micheál Martin: That is the Government's intention, commitment and determination to do. The specific issues the Deputy has raised are being examined in considerable detail with a view to enabling Government to have the powers, ultimately, to deal with those particular mechanisms that have been used. We want to make sure that the financial capacity is retained in the country and made available to provide...

Transparency for Supermarket Profits: Motion [Private Members] (9 Jul 2025) See 1 other result from this debate

Gerald Nash: ...price gouging and excessive pricing in Ireland even though it could not possibly make a conclusive determination on that because it had no information of any quality on the very profits the companies it was supposed to be examining were making. Riddle me that. This is the "Father Ted" approach to the cost-of-living crisis in Ireland. It is the equivalent of "Can anything be said for...
