Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: Dearbhaíonn é sin go bhfuil an Teachta Simon Harris roghnaithe chun a cheapadh ag an Uachtarán mar Thaoiseach. I formally welcome members of the Harris family to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery. They are all very welcome. I really do believe this will be a memory that will be firmly ensconced in the memories of Cillian and Saoirse. Long may they remember this great...

Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I wish the incoming Taoiseach the very best. The public wants delivery, not an intent to deliver or promises to deliver that are broken time and again. The public needs delivery now. It needs delivery that is real and tangible and that improves their lives rather than making them worse. Many are busy trying to survive without access to vital services. They are trying to survive without...

Violet-Anne Wynne: -----to ensure social cohesion. It was interesting to hear that there is a level of trust in the coalition. That has not translated to the general population. Will a Taoiseach, constrained by time and with the job of rebuilding his own party, prioritise the best interests of the public and prioritise integrity in politics?

Michael Collins: In my view that will lead to further closures of pubs and cafes and those who support him would be equally responsible for such closures in their constituencies.

Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Joan Collins: There is a lot of fanfare about this being a new start for Fine Gael, this Government and the country. In reality, what we see is the same old stale, out-of-touch political system that has been in power since the foundation of the State. We can play political musical chairs and give everything a fresh look but this is just two sides of the same coin. It is another Taoiseach for Fine Gael...

Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Is mian liom comhghairdeas a chur in iúl don iarThaoiseach, an Teachta Varadkar. Bhí sé gonta lena chuid freagraí i gcónaí agus thaitin sé sin liom, in ainneoin nár thaitin na freagraí liom. Cuirim céad míle fáilte roimh chlann an Aire, an Teachta Harris, anseo: a bhean chéile, Caoimhe; a thuismitheoirí, Bart agus Mary;...

Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Michael McNamara: I will begin by paying tribute to Deputies Coveney and Varadkar and their contribution to Irish life at some difficult junctures but I will move on to Deputy Harris as this is a motion of confidence in him as Taoiseach. Over the weekend he promised that he would have the back of farmers, but he has served in a Government which has been on the back of farmers. Like many small business...

Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Marian Harkin: I cannot vote for the Minister, Deputy Harris, as Taoiseach, because four years of this Government and 13 years of Fine Gael in government have not delivered for the north west. Earlier, the Taoiseach, Deputy Varadkar, whom I wish well in his retirement from office, spoke of global mega-trends influencing outcomes. In my view, the only way to counter those trends in the context of balanced...

Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach (9 Apr 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: On a personal level, I wish the outgoing Taoiseach, Deputy Varadkar, and the Minister, Deputy Coveney, the best of luck in their future. This is not personal towards the new Taoiseach but I cannot support a Government that has a Minister who has gone to Brussels and left Irish farmers relying on Italy, the Dutch, and several other countries in regard to the nature restoration law. The...
