Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Oct 2024)

Ruairi Ó Murchú: I will. I believe that people who should get supports, do not. I imagine the drug treatment court quite often has to deal with people getting used by drug gangs. We need to do what we can to divert people from that. If there is an underlying addiction, we need to provide supports. I imagine the court has come across many people who are vulnerable, who have an addiction and who have been...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Land Development Agency (10 Oct 2024)

Mairead Farrell: I thank Mr. Coleman. That very much leads me back into the earlier conversation which I do not want to return to. The main thing I noticed on note 14 in the financial statements is that the Land Development Agency reclassified the site which was identified as an investment property to being property, plant and equipment. I thought that that was quite intriguing because I had never seen...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Women and Constitutional Change: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Oct 2024)

Fergus O'Dowd: The addresses from the witnesses were very powerful. I thank them for the hard work they have been doing in reaching out to people in their communities. I have been very impressed in particular by what the witnesses collectively say about the need for consent and representation - gender and otherwise. If we are to build a new Ireland, the issue that goes to the heart of the matter is that...

Fergus O'Dowd: If the witnesses wish, they may reply to any of those comments at any stage. Senator Black has another function she needs to go to and asked if I could give her the Fine Gael space.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Women and Constitutional Change: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Oct 2024)

Fergus O'Dowd: There is a huge outbreak of racism. It starts in the political domain. They are using coded words and gathering negative momentum and causing strife and trouble. We are in a different Ireland now. The potential for negative outcomes is growing, certainly visibly on the streets and in our political discourse. We need to deal with it.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Women and Constitutional Change: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Oct 2024)

Fergus O'Dowd: That is a key point. The difficulty is that if we have a Border poll before the time is right, without having public buy-in, it will be hugely divisive. The consequences for relationships between people, whatever they might be before that, could be catastrophic. A negative outcome risks tearing everything apart again. That is the difficulty I see. It is so important to get it right....

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Export Controls (10 Oct 2024)

Matt Carthy: Over the past year, as the genocide in Gaza in particular has intensified and as a global boycott campaign has grown, the Israeli economy contracted quite an amount. Its credit rating has been downgraded multiple times and its economy has suffered across virtually every sector. Yet, one area that is apparently booming is its trade in dual-use items with a military purpose with Ireland in...
