Seán Ó Fearghaíl: I am sure we are all going to be on our best behaviour today because we are being observed from the Gallery by fifth and sixth class pupils from Bailieborough, County Cavan. First, we have a business proposal to take from the Government Chief Whip.

Hildegarde Naughton: I move: That, notwithstanding anything in Standing Order 34(a) or in the ordinary routine of business as contained in Schedule 3 to Standing Orders, Leaders' Questions pursuant to Standing Order 36 shall be taken now, followed immediately by the Order of Business pursuant to Standing Order 35, following which the ordinary routine of business shall be taken, subject to the arrangements...

Mick Barry: The reason the Chief Whip is asking the Dáil to approve a new start time is to enable the Taoiseach to both take Leaders' Questions and catch a plane to the United States. The Taoiseach will be flying over to meet President Biden, ostensibly to celebrate 100 years of diplomatic relations, but in reality to celebrate Joe Biden's presidency before he leaves office.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: We must be brief now because we cannot have lengthy statements, Deputy Barry.

Mick Barry: I will be brief. The Taoiseach should not be celebrating the presidency of a man who is arming and financing a genocide against the Palestinian people. There should be no farewell drinks for President Biden, and no place at Shannon Airport for US planes bringing arms to Israel. There is a huge gap between the Taoiseach's words and the Taoiseach's actions on this issue. If I cannot call a...

Mick Barry: -----I will call a vote now on the Chief Whip's proposal. I also urge people to join the protest at Shannon this Saturday at 1 p.m.

Duncan Smith: Revelations published on the front page of The Sunday Times that a Member of the Oireachtas has been recruited by Russian intelligence have been scoffed at, laughed at and dismissed by many since, but this is a matter of the utmost importance and seriousness. I have not seen anything, either internally from the Oireachtas or politically, in terms of how we are actually going to counter and...

Mattie McGrath: I do not know what is going on with this Taoiseach, but he has the media and the people driven demented. He has us driven demented. I think he is becoming demented himself.

Mattie McGrath: I think it is time now to stop all the tricks and the games of snakes and ladders and have a bit of cop-on and respect for the people, as well as this House. Call the election. Let the dog see the rabbit. Let us out there, rather than playing games up and down, backward and forward, running over to Joe Biden and back. He is afraid he will not be Taoiseach again and that he will not be...

Simon Harris: You will never be Taoiseach anyway.
- Gnó na Dála - Business of Dáil: Motion (8 Oct 2024)
Mattie McGrath: It is a bit of a charade. The Taoiseach is trying to drive the whole country demented, especially the electorate, but it can see what is going on and will catch him in good time.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: We are dealing with a proposal on the Order of Business, and nothing else. Does the Taoiseach want to comment?

Simon Harris: First, I am concerned to hear Deputy Barry would like to have a vote on my movements and where I can or cannot go. That certainly does not work. Second, I could have easily done what many taoisigh do regularly when attending official business and sent someone in here to deputise on my behalf. What I did was to ask the House to agree to take Leaders' Questions early because I need to...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla (Atógáil) - Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Prison Service (3 Oct 2024)
Chris Andrews: I thank the Minister of State and appreciate his coming in but the reality is that 600 prisoners in Mountjoy Prison are in addiction and there is no addiction nurse. Appointing clinical leads is well and good, but who will they work with? There are no addiction nurses for them to work with. How will that operate? It seems extraordinary. There are 180 prisoners in Mountjoy on methadone. ...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla (Atógáil) - Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Prison Service (3 Oct 2024)
Colm Burke: I set out in my reply that there are 19 addiction counsellors working across 11 prisons, providing an invaluable rehabilitative service to prisoners, and it is hoped that in the coming months this service will be further enhanced. I understand the point the Deputy has raised but believe there is now a commitment to further expand the role of the nurses. I hope that will happen over the next...
