Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Compliance with the Nitrates Directive and Implications for Ireland: Discussion (14 Feb 2024)

Paul Daly: ...onto the derogation. I was disappointed because politics were brought into it a little earlier and I want to put on record that we are all on the one side here and we should stay on the one side. We are where we are. We have a lot of regrets that we have got to where we are but if we are to spend the duration of this survey blaming one another for why we got to where we got, we will not...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Forestry Policy and Strategy: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (25 Jan 2023)

Paul Daly: .... You cannot relaunch the €1.3 billion. The bounce from that is gone. How is the Minister going to get it back? I would like a detailed response, based on everything that has been said here this evening. We are where we are, what has happened has happened, we have lost that bounce and confidence has taken a bigger kick. It is in a worse place than it was all through our...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Horticultural Peat Supply and Willow Scheme: Bord na Móna (23 Mar 2022)

Paul Daly: I welcome the witnesses. My questions are based on the opening statement. We are where we are but I want to know how we got here. The answer to every question at the moment is the High Court ruling. Based on the High Court ruling and the need for planning permission, Bord na Móna made the decision not to seek planning permission, accepted the ruling, waved the white flag immediately...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Alleged Issues in the Horse Racing Industry: Discussion (8 Jul 2021)

Paul Daly: .... What was she saying she was going to muck out there? That headline reads badly now. It may not have at the time. As I said at the outset, while the numbers of tests being carried out is impressive, we are where we are now and changes need to be made to go back to prove the innocence of the associations and the industry. I believe 2,449 tests - just shy of 2,500 - have been carried...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Collection and Recycling of Farm Plastics: Discussion (29 Jun 2021)

Paul Daly: ...in the market we have today, and allowing for the fact there are thousands of tonnes stacked up in various yards or fields around the country? We all know how we got here. I hate the statement but we are where we are. I want to hear from the officials what the Department is proposing as a solution to solve the problem and clear the blight, going forward.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Common Agricultural Policy Negotiations: Discussion (9 Jun 2021)

Paul Daly: I welcome all the representatives from the various farming bodies. Many of the issues have been covered. To use a badly used phrase, we are where we are and nothing is agreed until everything is agreed. Any CAP negotiations or agreements I recall have all started out with the promise that it will be a simpler CAP. That has never happened in any CAP. If we are to go on that premise, God...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Regulation of Veterinary Medicines: Discussion (Resumed) (27 Apr 2021)

Paul Daly: ...came before us. We had a lot of debate and deliberation on the veterinary practice ownership issue. The council stood firm on allowing multinationals to buy up and amalgamate small practices. We are where we are on that but with that in mind, if this regulation goes through as currently proposed and we do not take the derogation, are there enough vets in the country to prescribe what is...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Regulation of Veterinary Medicines: Discussion (23 Mar 2021)

Paul Daly: ...unviable and reduce service and competition in the area." As a farmer, I feel that is very accusing of farmers, responsible persons, licensed merchants and pharmacists in what is said, namely, we are where we are because of their recklessness. I find that a very disparaging and condescending statement. I have three questions based on what I have read out. Will the witnesses clarify why...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly: Environmental Pillar (12 Sep 2018)

Paul Daly: I thank the witnesses for being here. We are where we are. We all know where we are and why we are where we are. We probably should have had this meeting decades ago. However, we are here now. The committee is seeking guidance on what positive actions can be taken, the starting point being the Citizens' Assembly recommendations which the witnesses have referenced and quoted. This is...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fodder Shortage Risk Management Measures: Discussion (8 May 2018)

Paul Daly: ...today and I thank them for their contributions and the work they have done through the crisis. My initial question is to the witnesses from Teagasc. I ask that they do not get me wrong. We are where we are and it is not about a blame game. Perhaps they would consider this as constructive criticism. When we took the Minister on, from as early as last October, he referred always to...

Seanad Committee on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union: Engagement with Border Communities Against Brexit (25 May 2017)

Paul Daly: ...circumstances. I could argue that if all elections were based on the box in my little local village, I would be President of Ireland now. We have to take the overall result and unfortunately we are where we are. I would like to know what sense the witnesses are picking up in their face-to-face meetings on the other side of the Border. They will find nothing other than positive things...
