Seanad: Intoxicating Liquor Bill 2003: Committee Stage. (19 Jun 2003)

Pat Moylan: What happens when people are found intoxicated and there is proof the alcohol was bought in an off-licence? What happens to the off-licence? That may be covered in a different section. When a court closes a pub for a day or two it should specify the weekend for closure. If a publican is responsible for serving alcohol to younger people, the closure should be specified for Friday to Sunday,...

From a farming point of view, we must consider where we go from here and where profits can be made. There has been much talk about the dairy sector. Recently an IFA bulletin outlined where the money paid for the gallon of milk went. It described it as a...

Pat Moylan: I thank the Minister and his staff for what I consider to be a worthwhile and important Bill.

Seanad: Waste Management: Statements (Resumed). (5 Nov 2003)

Pat Moylan: A few points may have been missed concerning farm and plastic waste. We must highlight that the facility exists for recycling this waste. The plastic from wrapped silage bales has the country polluted. We did a great job in getting rid of the plastic bags and must now do the same for plastic waste from farms. It is a serious problem. There is an onus on farmers to recycle and they must take...

Seanad: Sea Pollution (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2003: Committee Stage. (12 Nov 2003)

Pat Moylan: I support Senators Daly and Finucane on this issue because from what we read, these ships may well have to turn around and head back to America. They constitute a major risk and they should not be moved at a time of the year when we are likely to experience severe storms. The people who intend to scrap them should not have been allowed to do it until a safer time of the year. There is a risk...
