Holly Cairns: I have run out of words to describe the horror unfolding in Gaza and now in Lebanon. This week, I and millions of other people, watched a young man in a hospital tent burn alive. He was still attached to an IV drip and was reaching out his hand for help. The Israeli army had targeted a missile strike on tents in the grounds of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital. Not content with destroying all the...

Micheál Martin: What is happening in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon is absolutely unacceptable. It is clearly in breach of international humanitarian law. In terms of what happened in northern Gaza in the last week, we witnessed war crimes of a shocking nature taking place.

Mairead Farrell: The serial waste of the public's money on the watch of the Government is absolutely astonishing. The catalogue of waste is well rehearsed. A sum of €336,000 was spent on a bicycle shelter and the Government cannot even tell us who signed off on it yet. There was €1.4 million on a security hut. There was a doubling of the cost of modular homes for Ukrainians to a jaw-dropping...

Micheál Martin: -----to increased expenditure and so on. There has been inflation, coming out of the war in Ukraine. We all know that. Everybody knows there was a period coming out of the start of that war and coming after Covid where the cost of building materials, in particular, went through the roof. We know that from some of the road projects. Some of those road projects we approved, where the...

Micheál Martin: -----which were being evaluated was such that its Deputies in here said they wanted the project to get done and asked why we were delaying it. The Dunkettle interchange is an example. It is an exceptional piece of work from an engineering perspective on the way into the Jack Lynch Tunnel, but I recall that when we went back to tender to get better value for money compared with the original...

On behalf of the people of Ladysbridge, Ballymacoda, Lisgoold, Shanagarry, Garryvoe, of those important local villages in the east Cork area, I want to make the case...

Eamon Ryan: On Connecting Ireland and the Local Link services, this new massive expansion in rural public transport has primarily been delivered by Local Link services. Bus Éireann has had a role too but Local Link has been central. I am glad that hopefully now NTA has agreed contract terms with all the Local Link providers for the next phase of their contract. We have also commissioned a review...

I do not know if we will be back again for another round of these parliamentary questions. Throughout your term, Minister, I have enjoyed dealing with you.
