- Appropriation Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (6 Nov 2024)
Richard O'Donoghue: I thank the Ceann Comhairle as I have probably given him a couple of hairy moments throughout the five years of my first term. Please God I will be returned again. As the Minister said, it will be up to the electorate. We are all here to represent the people who elected us. All I can do is wish everyone health going forward, both those people who are to return and those who are retiring....

- Appropriation Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (6 Nov 2024)
Paschal Donohoe: I wish to say something on the Schedule. I should have said it earlier but given this also will be my final opportunity to speak in this Dáil - although like everybody on the Opposition benches, I hope to be in the next one, depending on the support of our electorate and our constituents - I thank all the Deputies over the Dáil term for their co-operation in how we have debated...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I agree with the Minister and I have the same sentiments. I also will take this opportunity to thank the Ceann Comhairle. This may be his final act as Ceann Comhairle. He will be back in here to help us all with the wisdom he has got in that Chair over the years. I thank the staff in particular, for their help in the lifetime of this Dáil and hopefully, like the Minister, we will see...

- Appropriation Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (6 Nov 2024)
Paschal Donohoe: I thank the Ceann Comhairle. I also thank all the Deputies who contributed to the debate and raised various issues. I will begin with Deputy Ó Snodaigh, who raised an issue I am very familiar with because he has raised it with me on a number of occasions. It is worth putting the issue in context. We are talking about €2 million out of the €104.3 billion being...

- Appropriation Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (6 Nov 2024)
Richard O'Donoghue: I have been in construction all my life, with over 30 years of experience, and am still in construction on a daily basis. I start work on site at 7 o'clock in the morning because most of the Departments I deal with do not open until 9 a.m. or 9.30 a.m. I get my day's work done in the morning before I come to work at all. That keeps me in tune with inflation, labour and material costs and...
- Appropriation Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (6 Nov 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: I do not want to delay this Bill any further. I understand it needs to be passed notwithstanding the debates we might have about it. It is a little bit odd that anybody would oppose it because this is money we have to have spent to keep the show on the road. We might want to spend it differently or spend more but we need this money to cover the costs of public services and so on that...
