Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (30 Mar 2023)

Pearse Doherty: ...míonna atá amach romhainn. Sin na fíricí. The reality of our broken housing system does not seem to have dawned on the Tánaiste or any of his Government colleagues because if it had, they would not have voted last night again to make more people homeless in the coming days, weeks and months. The Tánaiste should listen back to Tom who spoke on "Morning...

(9 Feb 2022)

Pearse Doherty: On leaks from the Cabinet, the Taoiseach's Department oversees the investigation to ensure that no leaks take place. I raised this with him at last year's Estimates the leak of the mother and baby home report. It was very insensitive and caused a lot of hurt and pain at that time. An investigation was ongoing last year. Can the Taoiseach update the committee? Has that investigation...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (16 Sep 2021)

Pearse Doherty: The Tánaiste is part of a Government that is notoriously leaky, and I am not going to go into his own issues as it is subject to a criminal investigation. Yesterday, the Taoiseach could not update the House in regard to the investigation into the leak regarding the mother and baby homes commission after that report made its way to Government. As he knows, this was a leak that caused...

(27 Apr 2021)

Pearse Doherty: ...relates to Government leaks. It does not concern the investigation by the Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation into the leaking of the document by the Tánaiste. This concerns a different leak and one that has caused much hurt, anger and pain. On 10 January, the mother and baby homes report was leaked to the national media before it was shared with the survivors. I am...

Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes: Statements (Resumed) (20 Jan 2021)

Pearse Doherty: I begin by paying tribute to all the women and children who spent time in these institutions, including those in my county of Donegal. I pay tribute to the bravery shown by the survivors who engaged with the commission. I know there are many who did not have the opportunity to do so. Tá moladh tuillte ag na mná, a gcuid teaghlaigh agus a gcuid páistí don...

Mandatory Open Disclosure: Motion (15 May 2018)

Pearse Doherty: Ba mhaith liom tacaíocht a thabhairt don rún seo, atá curtha chun tosaigh ag an Teachta O'Reilly. Each time there is a scandal in the State, the crisis is initially downplayed. There are accusations of overreaction and so on. However, the scandal ends up being worse than it initially appeared. That was recently the case in respect of the mother and baby home in Tuam, the...

Questions on Promised Legislation (3 May 2017)

Pearse Doherty: The programme for Government refers to the national maternity strategy. Many Members of this House are aware that interviews were held by RTE at national level and by some local radio stations with Lisa, who is the mother of baby Eoin, who was born prematurely and passed away in Letterkenny General Hospital last winter. Unfortunately, he was left in a room for up to a month before he was...

Death and Burial of Children in Mother and Baby Homes: Motion [Private Members] (10 Jun 2014)

Pearse Doherty: ...í sin mar ba cheart agus fuair méid mór díobh bás faoi chúram an Stáit agus faoi chúram na heaglaise ag an am. Cuirim fáilte roimh an fógra atá déanta ag an Rialtas go mbeidh fiosrúchán sa réimse seo. Tá sé iontach tábhachtach go dtarlaíonn sin go scioptha, ach go ndíreoidh an...

Finance (Local Property Tax) (Amendment) Bill 2013: Second Stage (1 Mar 2013)

Pearse Doherty: ...wealth - property is a part of wealth - but we are completely opposed to taxing the family home, regardless of income or wealth. If we want to have a wealth tax, let us tax the yachts, helicopters and investments of the wealthy and set a threshold for an exemption up to a certain point. That would be a real wealth tax. Let us not pretend that what we are discussing is a type of wealth...
