Frank Feighan: ...on behalf of the Minister of State, Deputy Rabbitte, her absolute commitment to strive for the best services possible for children and young people with disabilities and for their families.

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Energy Policy (24 Feb 2022)

Frank Feighan: ...the power to take action and I will convey those views to the Minister. He went on to state we need a solution for Carlinn Hall and I thank both him and Deputy O’Rourke for raising that issue.

Topical Issue Debate: Schools Building Projects Status (24 Sep 2014)

Frank Feighan: ...because of capacity issues. I understand a new portakabin joined the five others on the one-acre site in August. I have called to the school on two occasions and I met the principal, Ms Mary O'Rourke. In my time going around to schools, I have not seen anything quite like this, with queues of parents outside.

Child Care: Motion (13 Nov 2007)

Frank Feighan: ...all right for us when we are in opposition, but the Minister is in government and I know he hears his party's Deputies and Senators talking about this. They are embarrassed by this scheme. Deputy O'Rourke said two weeks ago that the Minister should not listen to his officials but should do what he thinks is right. The officials in the Department are only considering the bottom line and...

Frank Feighan: I concur with Deputy O'Rourke. This is a monumental cock-up. The sooner the Government reverses this outrageous decision, the better. Many of those who have spoken have serious concerns. In the few years before the general election, Deputies attended many openings of child care facilities. As a politician, I welcomed the funding and advances we had made in the area. Now, however, many...
