Rónán Mullen: Tá ceist eile agam. Iarraim ar na finnéithe pictiúr a dhearadh dom; cá mhéad duine a bheadh lonnaithe? An é go mbuailfeadh daoine isteach agus thiocfadh siad amach agus ní fhanfadh siad san áit? An mbeadh siad ag obair chun cabhrú le daoine a thagann tríd an doras nó ar an bhfón nó cad a bheadh i gceist go díreach agus...

Rónán Mullen: Tuigim. Gabhaim buíochas leis an bhfinné.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (16 Apr 2024)

Rónán Mullen: I join in the tributes and words of sympathy to the Dowling family. We should not be surprised that it is an onerous task to be a Senator on the Labour Panel. It is certainly a laborious task anyway. I make the point to the Ceannaire Gníomhach, Senator Seery Kearney, that it is about ten months since the scandal of the secret payments at RTÉ emerged, causing the State...

Seanad: Agriculture: Statements (16 Apr 2024)

Rónán Mullen: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire. I do not intend to take up the full ten minutes allocated to me. There are just a few issues that I want to raise with the Minister. He has already addressed several of the matters I had hoped to raise. I do not know if the Minister has had a chance, in this House or elsewhere, to acknowledge the very tragic passing of Paddy Dunican, the manager of...

Seanad: Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (16 Apr 2024)

Rónán Mullen: I thank the Cathaoirleach and welcome the Minister back to the House. In drafting these amendments, we have been mindful that it is not always clear what is and is not caught by this or any Bill. I am open to the argument, though I do not think the Minister has made it, that the Bill does not explicitly criminalise silent prayer. However, given the breadth of section 2(2), considered in...

Seanad: Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (16 Apr 2024)

Rónán Mullen: Unless the Minister engages I will leave the O'Shea report for another day and will not speak about last night's documentary. I have already made my position on the documentary and on RTÉ's behaviour with it known at an earlier stage today in the House. Suffice it to say that I think the many flaws in Ms O'Shea's knowledge were clearly exposed at the committee, not least in her...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (11 Apr 2024)

Rónán Mullen: Go raibh míle maith agat Cathaoirligh agus b'fhearr liom fáilte a chur roimh ár n-aíonna ó Ghaelcholáiste Cheatharlach. I also welcome our other distinguished guests. I would like to second my friend, Senator Martin's Bill. I know from Senator Keogan that she does not anticipate any stiff opposition to this particular Bill. It seems to be worthy of support...

Seanad: EU Regulations (Police Co-operation on Migrant Smuggling and Trafficking in Human Beings): Motion (11 Apr 2024)

Rónán Mullen: I welcome the Minister to the House and congratulate the Minister on her reappointment. We look forward to seeing her regularly in this House, although not on one particular Bill unless there are substantial changes but we will talk about that on another occasion. The Minister has brought a very important issue before us. I support the motion that we opt in to this measure. It is vital,...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (20 Mar 2024)

Rónán Mullen: Is lá stairiúil é seo agus guím gach rath ar an Taoiseach, Teachta Leo Varadkar, agus é fógartha anois aige go bhfuil sé chun éirí as oifig.I would like to be associated with all those wishing Leo Varadkar well on this very surprising day when he announced he is to retire as Taoiseach and as leader of Fine Gael. I think the history books will show...

Seanad: Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (7 Mar 2024)

Rónán Mullen: I would also like to add my voice of welcome to my Oireachtas colleague, Deputy Farrell, and all the great guests. I see at least two teachers with the students from Pope John Paul II National School, Malahide. I had the great good fortune to meet Pope John Paul, now St. John Paul, who was a tremendously charismatic figure. He was a great champion of human dignity and respect for every...

Seanad: Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (7 Mar 2024)

Rónán Mullen: We will start with amendment No. 3, which proposes, "In page 6, lines 10 and 11, to delete “within 100 metres of an entrance to either House of the Oireachtas”." I will resume from where we were on page 6. The clause as it currently stands states: Nothing in section 2(2) shall prohibit a person from engaging in lawful protest, advocacy or dissent within 100 metres of an...

Seanad: Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (7 Mar 2024)

Rónán Mullen: It is not an issue of choice if you are a young medical student who wants to specialise in obstetrics. I can say that to Senator McGreehan, who is my friend and colleague. They will be a second-class citizen if they believe that an unborn baby deserves to be protected, if they want to be the top obstetrician in their field but if they do not want to kill an unborn child. How much space...
