Select Committee on Social Protection: Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings System Bill 2024: Committee Stage (8 May 2024)

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Even though these two amendments are grouped, they are quite different in nature, so we are discussing apples and oranges. This is really welcome legislation, as was said on Second Stage, and it represents good policy and politics. If the scheme were up and running next year, it would be 2065 before those who had worked for 40 years would exit and benefit from it. I do not believe they...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Flood Relief Schemes (2 May 2024)

Thomas Gould: ...Minister of State provide funding to enable local authorities to put in eco-drains and flood protection measures? At the top of Knocknaheeny, an area I represent, there is a dip in the road at the Apple site which floods every time there is heavy rain, blocking access for everyone. Will the Minister of State give money to local authorities to fix those? Will he also provide a grant to...

Lynn Boylan: ...to my attention by the Irish actor and producer, Áine O'Neill. It is about her experience in Las Vegas in November 2022. Late one night, her phone pinged and she was notified that she was visible to an Apple AirTag. The latter was able to see where she worked, where she parked her car and everywhere she had been that evening. After investigating if she had happened to pick up...

Gambling Regulation Bill 2022: Report Stage (24 Apr 2024)

Pearse Doherty: ...a free entry. Nobody does the free entries. These websites have tickets for €100 and there is a free entry. Very few, obviously, some people, do a free entry. The issue is, it is there on the app, with PayPal, Apple Pay, etc. They are paying €100 instead of going through the free entry route with which one has to use a postcard and put the name and address on it. All...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals (Resumed) (24 Apr 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: ...of different groups suggesting we should not export calves at all because it is animal cruelty or whatever. Most operators – 99% of them – do their job to 100% perfection. There is always a bad apple in every group, but for the most part these people are good operators. That objectors are trying to stop the export trade is unfortunate and unfair. They basically want to...

Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth: Ireland's International Obligations under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child: Discussion (23 Apr 2024)

...buttons on it. Oh my God, it was the light of my life for a little while. I was not a perfect kid. I remember getting a tablet when growing up and progressing to a phone. I remember the little Apple thing that could play music. It could reel off thousands of songs and you could download everything you could ever want to listen to. It was amazing. You suddenly start growing up and...

Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community: Give Travellers the Floor: Discussion (18 Apr 2024)

Barry Ward: ...I am referring here to the criminal justice system. We know it exists and it is something that needs to be worked on. It exists at every level. No more than in any other community, the Traveller community will have bad apples in it and there are people who come before the courts having done things they should not have done, but many Travellers come before the courts who genuinely need...

Pat Buckley: ...witch-hunt. It is not about that. It is about gathering the information. As I always say, it is basically about gathering all the ingredients and baking the right cake. You cannot make an apple tart without apples. It is as simple as that.

...45%. Conversely, industry data shows that the number of contactless card payments more than doubled between 2019 and 2022. In December 2023, the value of payments via mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay was higher than the value of cash withdrawals, according to the Central Bank. Despite this societal shift, the BPFI and our member banks recognise the vital relevance of cash...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: IDA Ireland: Chairperson Designate (21 Feb 2024)

James O'Connor: ...Ireland advance hubs have a role. To my great interest, I learned during the pandemic that many multinationals will not consider an external base unless they have secure premises. The likes of Apple and other major multinational tech or pharmaceutical firms do not want workers working in remote-working hubs unless they have a secure facility. In east Cork, particularly Youghal, this...

Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth: Protection of Children in the Use of Artificial Intelligence: Discussion (Resumed) (20 Feb 2024)

...teasing through but we have started that work. Some of the key values that have come through is the concept of independence, the concept of being impactful and, while it sounds like motherhood and apple pie, the concept of being courageous as a regulator. We are looking at this from the point of view of what our powers are, but we are also having an internal dialogue about how we ensure...

Death of Former Taoiseach: Expressions of Sympathy (7 Feb 2024)

Richard Bruton: ...way. I thank you on behalf of Finola, Matthew, Juliana, Emily, Mary-Elizabeth and, of course, my sister Mary and, I should say, the next generation: Ophelia, Hugo, Oliver and Robin, who were the apple of his eye, as they say, and buoyed him up, particularly during his long illness. I think it was Kieran who spoke about how Ireland has changed since John entered politics. Going back to...

Patrick O'Donovan: ...and mobility. People cannot get that in the private sector. As somebody who has worked in the private sector in an engineering capacity and now in the Office of Public Works, it is like comparing apples with oranges.

Seanad: Defence Forces Tribunal of Inquiry: Motion (30 Jan 2024)

Tom Clonan: ..., "Well I didn't experience it and, therefore, it doesn't exist", that is gaslighting and you do a disservice to the service of our veterans and you do a disservice to those survivors of that abuse, because this is not about a few rotten apples. This is about a system that is rotten to the core and I hope the judge-led tribunal will not only deal with the symptom of it, which is the way...

Seanad: Human Rights in China: Motion (23 Jan 2024)

Malcolm Byrne: ...of the Government here. Last April, I had the privilege of welcoming Sebastien Lai to these Houses. I had the opportunity to briefly introduce him to the Tánaiste. Sebastien is the son of Jimmy Lai, the founder of newspaper Apple Dailyin Hong Kong. His is a story of somebody who went from rags to riches. He was a self-made businessman who cared passionately about people and cared...

...a higher rate. Canada is predominantly social insurance but there is a bit of means testing, while Norway is almost entirely social insurance. To a certain extent, therefore, we are comparing apples and oranges but our closest analogue is the UK.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Energy Poverty: Discussion (17 Jan 2024)

Dr. Ciaran Byrne: I thank Deputy Donnelly for his questions. The fundamental question was about the timelines for the two schemes. To be upfront, it is not really comparing apples with apples. In the region of 1,340 contractors are operating in the individual measures scheme, in which there is a menu of individual measures you can get done. Homeowners apply when they are ready. It is a...
