Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Historic and Archaeological Heritage Bill 2023: Committee Stage (29 Jun 2023) See 6 other results from this debate

Cian O'Callaghan: My concern is the bigger picture on this. Since 1840, according to a Heritage Council survey in 2001, 34% of archaeological monuments have been destroyed, and that has continued since 2001. That is a complete failure of the legislation we have had to date and the resources that have been put in behind it. Once a monument is destroyed, it is destroyed forever; that is it. It is gone. It...

Mattie McGrath: ...population which is running riot around the country. It is causing havoc in every rural area and in urban areas as well. There is danger to life and limb due to car accidents and cars are being destroyed. The Government will not address that at all because of the do-gooders, all these so-called environmentalists who want to lecture us and tell us we are backward, stupid, dirty or...

Michael Collins: ...and Fine Gael councillor who will be knocking on the door of every rural farmer and every urban dweller as well - the doors of those people who depend on having top-quality Irish milk and meat, which Ireland has delivered up to now - we say that if the Government will not clearly support this motion, then let no farmer out there be in any doubt that these politicians or their parties have...

Seanad: EU Migration: Motion [Private Members] (27 Jun 2023)

Lynn Ruane: ...? We do mental acrobatics in our heads to try to tell ourselves we are not responsible for that. It does not matter whether we stand here and vote against motions, put in countermotions that destroy the principles of human rights and dignity or go into the fucking sea ourselves and push them away with our own hands - I apologise and retract the "F" word - we are responsible.

...project. The Beyond 2022 project is a collaboration with the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland and through that we have discovered replications of records going back 700 years that were destroyed in the Four Courts. The National Archives found that the records were actually replicated in London and they also found records across the world, which is enhancing the collaboration. I...

Paul Donnelly: ...year and talk about early intervention and prevention. I welcome this document. There is some really good stuff in it but if we do not resource it or fund it, then I see more children's lives being destroyed and wasted.

Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Legislative Programme (21 Jun 2023)

Victor Boyhan: ...of where wills are held. They are clearly confidential documents. Much of the litigation and dispute is around succession and the right to ascertain a will or to find out that wills have been destroyed because they did not favour one person over another. The area is contentious and there is a need for a register. I acknowledge the enormous work done by former Senator Leyden. He drove...

Mary Seery Kearney: ...relations claims. The story has moved on. In the past week, the Food Safety Authority issued a rather unprecedented call asking that any meat-based products bought in Iceland since March be destroyed and that the store do that in respect of its entire frozen meat range. Yesterday, we had the High Court application for the company to go into administration in order to give it a bit of...

LGBTQI+ Equality: Statements (20 Jun 2023)

Emer Higgins: ...tearing down anyone else's. I worry for young people who are just discovering their sexuality and spend so much time online at a time when their self-esteem and self-worth are vulnerable to being destroyed by a few bad actors on social media. That is why it is so important that we call out homophobia and transphobia for what they are when we see them, which is hate. From a...

Leo Varadkar: ...stock than in any year since the 1970s. The recent census figures show the percentage of households benefiting from social housing increased in the past ten years and not down. This totally destroys the argument that this Government and the previous Government were somehow uninterested in social housing. Some 40,000 more families are in social housing than there were ten years ago. The...

...earth was unable to absorb them. It was like rain hitting a plastic sheet. Within a short while, communities went from living on parched earth to being knee or thigh deep in water. Homes were destroyed, entire villages were cut off and cholera had broken out. There was no means to effectively capture the water that fell. While there was rain, there was still no water and women in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Defamation (Amendment) Bill: Department of Justice (20 Jun 2023)

James Lawless: ...case was that the greater the exertion that was given to the accusation by the barman in that case - it could be a shopkeeper - the less qualified the privilege it attracted. The same as malice destroys qualified privilege, so too may an overenthusiastic reprimand or check. It is in degrees. I do not know to what extent that is followed. Like Senator Ward, I have attempted to argue...

John Brady: ..., often repeatedly, resulting from extreme weather events leading to flooding. Flooding has an absolutely devastating impact. It leaves families with homes, possessions, and family heirlooms destroyed. Businesses see their premises devastated, their stock destroyed, with companies often being left unable to fulfil orders due to the disruption caused by flooding. The responsibility...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Wind Energy Generation (15 Jun 2023)

Eamon Ryan: ...environment is protected. I think we can do that. The development of offshore wind will be really good for the restoration of the maritime areas. Taking the Irish Sea, for example, we have destroyed the Irish Sea over many decades with the loss of fishing stocks, mussel and oyster beds. Looking at what has been lost in the Irish Sea, the restoration of wind power will see the...

Micheál Martin: ...of this. We are not in any way colluding but are simply putting pressure on the Israeli Government that if we with other European countries are funding infrastructure in the West Bank and it is destroyed or confiscated, we believe compensation must be forthcoming and there must be a cost. It is just one other further element of endeavouring to keep pressure on the Israeli Government with...

Written Answers — Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade: Ukraine War (15 Jun 2023)

Micheál Martin: ...Russia’s full-scale invasion. Since February last year, Russia has launched hundreds of drone and missile strikes in Ukraine with the apparent aim of terrorising the civilian population and destroying civilian infrastructure. In recent weeks these attacks have further escalated. The destruction of the Nova Khakovka dam last week is another brutal consequence of Russia's war. In...
