Mattie McGrath: The childcare sector is in crisis. Although the Government has injected funding into the sector which, thankfully, has made childcare more affordable for parents, that has now created such a high demand that the services are not available to people because they cannot hire staff. Childcare facilities are now routinely turning away families and the waiting lists are getting bigger and...

Joan Collins: I have raised several times the severe lack of certain services across the Dublin 12 area due to a localised lack of public health nurses.

There is one public health nurse for child checks and one for older persons....

Richard Bruton: I congratulate the Minister on her initiative of bringing in a pension for those on carer's allowance, but I would like to see progress on two other programme for Government commitments. I refer to the proposal to extend free GP care to those on the carer's support grant and to develop a carer's guarantee that will provide a core basket of services across the country.

Heather Humphreys: I thank the Deputy for raising this matter. We have improved the supports available to carers considerably in recent years. I know the Deputy welcomed the carer's pension that is now going to come into place. It is very important to recognise the huge sacrifices many have made in caring for their loved ones, particularly parents of children with disabilities. We have also expanded a...

Heather Humphreys: I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. We commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Dublin and Monaghan bombings this Friday. The legacy of that atrocity lives on in the memory of many. In my own town of Monaghan, I know how it impacted on people. I acknowledge the people who lost their lives that day. The bomb in Monaghan went off outside Greacen's pub. I was just reading about two...

Matt Carthy: Today marks the 76th anniversary of the Nakba, which saw 15,000 Palestinians killed and some three quarters of a million more expelled. The seven and a half decades since then have been marked, on the one hand, by the repeated breach by Israel of international laws and, on the other, by the failure of the international community to hold that state accountable for those breaches. The world,...
