Aengus Ó Snodaigh: 21.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: General Scheme of the Monuments and Archaeological Heritage Bill: Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage (3 Feb 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...visited it once because my parents were more interested in Knowth and Dowth. I remember, before there was any excavation, going into a tunnel there, even though we were not supposed to. We saw a dog coming out of it. We were only kids and could fit in and health and safety issues were not a concern in those days. It was not designated, there was no signage, there was nothing. Now,...

Affordable Homes in the Poolbeg Strategic Development Zone: Motion (29 Jun 2021)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...criers on the Government backbenches have said that we object to this, that and the other, but I do not object willy-nilly. My record stands for itself in supporting proper housing throughout the country. I support social and affordable housing on public land. I support private housing on private land. I do not support dog boxes, which the previous housing Minister wanted to build on...

Ministerial Power (Repeal) (Ban Co-Living and Build to Rent) Bill 2020: Second Stage [Private Members] (20 Oct 2020)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...of the gang who wrecked our city. He will be just as guilty of trying to hollow out the soul of the city and facilitating the selling of the commercial product which co-living now is. Living in dog boxes, with 40 bedrooms sharing one kitchen, is being suggested in the most recent scheme planned for Halston Street in Dublin's north inner city. The slum landlord who subdivided his...

Community Safety and Fireworks: Motion [Private Members] (22 Sep 2020)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...and very damaging. There has not seemed to be a proportionate response, or any response some nights, to any of these activities. People, especially the elderly, are in absolute fear and anxiety. Their dogs are fretting. Panic sets in. It is unbearable for many. In some cases people are targeted as they walk down the street because they have had the decency to ring and ask for help...

Anti-Malarial Medication: Motion (28 Jun 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...are reports. I did not write them, I am not a medical expert and I do not know half of the words contained within them. I do know, however, what the conclusions are and every single one of them is very, very stark. They say that this is a poison and it is dangerous and do not give it to a child, a dog or whoever and definitely do not give it to a person who is going to be in charge of...

Anti-Malarial Medication: Motion (28 Jun 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...man enough to admit that the advice he was given nearly ten years ago was wrong. I hope the Minister of State and the military authorities today have the same humility. The Ceann Comhairle, Deputies Clare Daly and O'Brien, an tSeanadóir Pádraig MacLochlainn and I have doggedly pursued this issue with the Minister of State and with previous Ministers since 2008, but without any...

Defence Forces: Motion (4 Apr 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...of the Department of Defence to withdraw Lariam in the face of overwhelming evidence that it causes serious long-term and potentially fatal side effects is a damning indictment of Government policy and a reflection of the head-in-the-sand attitude of the military and health authorities. It points to a worrying failure in the way the State protects the physical and mental health of troops....

Defence Forces (Second World War Amnesty and Immunity) Bill 2012 [Seanad]: Second Stage (6 Mar 2013)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...air or sunlight for four and a half years and had been kept for months on end in solitary confinement. Seán McBride, acting as counsel for the next-of-kin at the inquest, asked the prison doctor if he would keep a dog in such conditions, to which the doctor replied he would not. The treatment of republican prisoners was in stark contrast to how certain other categories of prisoners...

Criminal Procedure Bill 2009 [Seanad] Second Stage (Resumed) (4 Mar 2010)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...jurisdictions. We cannot ignore this and must have a system that protects against it. The shameful case of Frank Shortt in Donegal is evidence of the lengths to which a corrupt Garda can go in a dogged attempt to frame an innocent person. There have been a number of other cases in this and the neighbouring jurisdiction and this should be borne in mind when we start to tamper with the...

Gangland Crime: Motion (2 Feb 2010)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...in prisons. It is worth noting in this context that there are only two scanners for trucks in the country. Such scanners should be installed at every port, in addition to increased use of sniffer dogs, in order to intercept drugs shipments.

Criminal Justice (Amendment) Bill 2009: Committee Stage (Resumed) (9 Jul 2009)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...that a feud was going on in the area despite the fact that 13 people had died at the hands of the ruthless gangs involved. That was an example of a garda giving contrary evidence to what the dogs in the street in Crumlin, Drimnagh and the rest of the country understood to be true. It might not be on the scale that Paul Williams and others would have us believe but it does exist. I draw...

Criminal Justice (Amendment) Bill 2009: Committee Stage (Resumed) (9 Jul 2009)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...the country which do not even have Internet access or proper rooms; the lack of proper scanners around the country to scan trucks for weaponry and drugs and the like; the shortage of sniffer dogs; the inadequacy of the forensic laboratory; the under-resourcing of drugs units; the failure to achieve the target for civilianisation, to properly fund the Dial to Stop Drug Dealing service, to...

Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2009: Report and Final Stages (25 Jun 2009)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...for the gardaí and requires additional support. Some of the problems can been addressed through extra resources for the local authority. In my area in some houses they were breeding vicious dogs. No one knew about it because the neighbours were not saying anything. Eventually the local estate management officers were informed and they acted quickly because the matter was covered by the...

Offences against the State (Amendment) Act 1998: Motion (17 Jun 2009)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...Monaghan bombings, and the attempted mass murder at The Widow Scallon and the death of volunteer, Martin Doherty. I call on the British Government, as a partner in the peace process, to call its dogs to heel and declare that the provocative actions of its agents in these dissident and loyalist groups are contrary to the peace process and perpetuate conflict on this island. I ask the...

Special Educational Needs: Motion. (6 May 2009)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...and that is exactly what this cut does. The lousy €6 million the Minister will save in this cut is one-tenth of what the Government is spending on horse and greyhounds chasing their tails. Are dogs more important than children? That, at the end of the day, is what it boils down to and the Government needs to address that. In the past few months I have received many emails from...

Gangland Crime: Motion (18 Nov 2008)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...protection and greater and faster civilianisation of the Garda to free up fully trained gardaí from behind desks to fight crime. More funding is needed to tackle the drugs crisis. More sniffer dogs are also required. Delays in the justice system, including the processing of Criminal Assets Bureau cases, need to be addressed and CAB needs to focus on drug related crime. The money...

Brutal Killing in Limerick: Statements. (13 Nov 2008)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...States and Sweden have risen to between 30% and 40%. This is what we must reach if we are to have properly trained crime fighters on the streets, rather than sitting behind desks dealing with dog licences and the like. The Garda should expedite a further extended process of civilianisation of administrative tasks. Much of the Garda traffic corps' duties could also be targeted in this...
