- Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2024
Vote 38 - Health (Supplementary) (16 Oct 2024) John Lahart: It is a small figure but it caught my eye. I thank Mr. Curry.
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Noise Pollution (16 Oct 2024)
Eamon Ryan: I do know the area. My grandfather grew up there. We had a family farm just on the other side of the Glantane and I absolutely accept what the Deputy is saying about the impact of noise, particularly. It is often forgotten about or it is slightly abstract but it has a huge impact on people’s quality of life and health so it is a real issue. I will read the response I have...

Catherine Connolly: There is usually a copy of the script in the Chamber but unfortunately there is no copy of that response.

Eamon Ryan: No. I will ask my private secretary to bring a copy.
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Noise Pollution (16 Oct 2024)
Pádraig O'Sullivan: To address the Minister’s questions, there is provision for replacement surfacing in the immediate areas around the Dunkettle interchange as part of its upgrade in recent years. That is still ongoing. On the Ringaskiddy project and the noise action plans that have been prepared for that, that is on the south side of the river so I do not know whether the remit of the noise action...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Noise Pollution (16 Oct 2024)
Eamon Ryan: I am interested in whether the resurfacing as part the Dunkettle upgrade has had an impact. That is why mapping is important to measure before and after and I do not know whether that extends as far east. I mentioned the Ringaskiddy development because it is likely to increase the volume of traffic and, potentially, heavy goods vehicles, which are even noisier in terms of their weight they...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Traffic Management (16 Oct 2024)
John Lahart: I made the point that we can do both. The Minister mentioned leadership, which is why I raised this issue with him today. I would like him to write to South Dublin County Council to initiate a task force involving not only the council and the NTA, but also local community stakeholders, such as schools and businesses. These roads are not half as congested when schools are not open. We need...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Traffic Management (16 Oct 2024)
Eamon Ryan: As it happens, I am meeting the NTA later this morning so I will raise this and will push for it to look at south Dublin. On another point, the Deputy is right about focusing on making it safe for our children to take the bus, walk or cycle to school. On days like today, when traffic tends to be bad and the weather is not great, 30% of the morning rush-hour traffic is children being driven...

Noise Pollution
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Noise Pollution (16 Oct 2024)
Pádraig O'Sullivan: I have previously raised in the House the issue of noise mitigation measures along motorways in general. It is particularly pertinent for me because I live 500 m from the Dunkettle interchange and over the years, with the increasing volume of traffic on the motorway and in the surrounding areas, noise has become a definite issue for people. This matter also relates to Harper’s...

Deputy Danny Healy-Rae - To discuss HSE staffing issues in Kerry community hospitals. Deputy Catherine Connolly - To discuss the inadequate wastewater...

Traffic Management
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Traffic Management (16 Oct 2024)
John Lahart: I thank the senior Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, for coming to the Chamber for this Topical Issue. I appreciate it. As he will be aware, I live alongside the M50 in Scholarstown. When I hear the sirens of emergency vehicles early in the morning travelling along the motorway, I know there is going to be traffic chaos, as there has been an accident. The traffic chaos will stretch out into...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Traffic Management (16 Oct 2024)
Eamon Ryan: I thank the Deputy very much. I know the area he is referring to well. As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and Exchequer funding for the national roads programme. Once funding arrangements have been put in place with Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, under the Roads Acts, 1993 to 2015, and in line with the national development plan, NDP, the operation...
