Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Accommodation Provision (12 Mar 2019)

Jim Daly: ...I have no control over what happened in 2008 or the reason the building project did not progress. We can make a good guess as to why it did not happen. Obviously, it was for reasons of finance. We are where we are and we want to get the project back on track. I have given a commitment that I will do that for the local community. I have assured the Minister, Deputy Creed, that the...

Seanad: Versatis Medicated Plasters: Statements (21 Feb 2018)

It is why we are where we are today. I thank the witnesses for their time. It was very informative. I speak on behalf of all members. We appreciate the engagement. It was an eye-opener for all of us and the...

Irish Water: Statements (27 Apr 2016)

Jim Daly: ...to or we do not. Is that what we are going to do now with those who will not pay their TV licences? Is the solution to give everybody else back their money? It is a nonsense beyond all levels imaginable. We are where we are. We have to negotiate with the Fianna Fáil Party and I respect that. We do not have the mandate that we had previously. I also respect that. We have to...
