An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (2 Jul 2024)

Simon Harris: -----next week as well. Deputy Verona Murphy raised a very good piece of work done by the Department of Justice that highlights a real and serious need for reform in a number of areas related to our family courts.

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (2 Jul 2024)

Richard Boyd Barrett: It is an absolute disgrace that the Taoiseach signed an order to exclude the Aungier Street site from a requirement to deliver social and affordable housing, and that that site is going to be handed over to private interests when we urgently need social and affordable housing on public sites. It really underlines the criticism of the Housing Commission report regarding the need for a radical...

Verona Murphy: Domestic violence and child abuse concerns that were recently raised in a Department of Justice report found that assessors do not have adequate training or accreditation to properly assess family violence.

Mattie McGrath: I, too, on behalf of the Rural Independent Group, wish Deputies Murphy and Shortall the very best following their announcement. All is not well in this State regarding children.

Simon Harris: I thank Deputy Pringle for raising this issue and I acknowledge he raises it regularly, as do other colleagues in County Donegal. I accept a statement of the obvious. The Deputy has rightly said that the Government and I are aware this is not just a Donegal issue. It is important to say that. My note mentions counties Mayo, Clare and Limerick as other areas that have been affected. The...

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: I join those Members who have recognised the significant announcement made by Deputies Shortall and Catherine Murphy. I acknowledge that they have had a truly reformative influence on politics in this country. I have known Róisín Shortall for many years from our days in the Eastern Health Board when she was as forceful and direct in her views on health matters as she is today. I...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (2 Jul 2024)

Mary Lou McDonald: It is not agreed. It is welcome that the Labour Court has finally formally intervened in the ongoing pay dispute between Aer Lingus and the Irish Air Line Pilots' Association. I do not think it can be overstated how essential it is that a resolution is found to this dispute, for families who are worried their holidays may be cancelled, but equally for the tourism and hospitality sectors...
