Kevin Humphreys: While I accept the Minister's good intentions, it is not acceptable to this House to give the power to charge a mediation service fee without coming back to this House first. If it is not the intention or the Minister does not foresee a need in the short to medium term to charge a fee for the mediation service and where he expresses the view that he hopes it will remain free of charge, if...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Tax Reliefs Data (28 Feb 2019)

Joan Burton: ...guts of €300,000. That is generous and could be minimised. We do not simply want to attract people to Ireland for the purposes of tax avoidance.

Willie Penrose: .... There is no place for illegal activity in any sport, not least the greyhound industry. All that is wanted is a fair and sporting chance for every dog owner who owns a dog, who pays the fees and enters it in a race. It is about the level playing pitch.

Jan O'Sullivan: ...simple so landlords can register every year in a way that is not too complex for them, perhaps involving filling in something simple online. Perhaps the Minister will come back on this. I know the fees will be reduced but given that there will be yearly registration I wonder whether they should be as high as they will be.
