Dara Calleary: I covered all the main issues in my opening remarks. I thank the Deputies. Deputy Boyd Barrett's remarks are probably outside the scope of the report in terms of the enterprise opportunities. MARA has been established for offshore planning and has responsibilities there. To Deputy Stanton's point on skills, that is something we are focused on. Working with the Minister, Deputy...

David Stanton: I thank the Minister of State for his response. I remind him it has been six months since this happened and that it has happened twice before, although not to the same extent because Storm Babet was exceptionally awful. The work that needs to be done at Castlemartyr and especially Mogeely is not huge. I do not think money is an issue, but I am told the schemes were not in tranche 1. Will...

Bernard Durkan: I thank the Minister and welcome his reply. I am thinking also of the most urgent requirements that have been urgent for a number of years such as, for instance, the Derry road which was mentioned in respect of another tragic accident overnight. There are several other projects like that, which we have talked about and where we put forward the various reasons they are an urgent necessity....

Paschal Donohoe: Yes, I am, but it continues to be a challenge, one I and my predecessors have faced over many years because in some cases, Government spending can be ahead of profile. Despite the best efforts of all involved, that has required Supplementary Estimates. All that being said, however, we have to look at where overall Government expenditure has been in the last number of years. It has grown...

As the Deputy is aware, they were the spring cost-of-living package, a Christmas bonus, Covid-19 related spending pressures, the cost of humanitarian supports to Ukrainian refugees and additional in-year commitments. These developments were partially offset by savings on both core expenditure within Votes and the use of unallocated contingency funding held back in the REV of 2023. As...

Marian Harkin: I thank the Minister for that response but, of course, this is the issue at hand. The Minister is liaising with the Department of Justice and the Department of Social Protection to find a solution to this anomaly. Gardaí who joined the force post-1995 seem, at first glance, to receive the same level of pension entitlement. If we look at what they have to do to receive the pension,...
