- Select Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Estimates for Public Services 2024
Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Supplementary) (5 Nov 2024) Charlie McConalogue: Over the course of the last year, for example, the payments in terms of compensation per animal from the scheme would be up by 20% on average.

That would be an assessment and would be monitored and carried out through the ICBF in terms of monitoring data and information coming in. That point had not been raised with me and I am not aware of it having been the case.

Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Supplementary) (5 Nov 2024) Charlie McConalogue: Yes. In terms of new planting, a big percentage of what goes out in forestry is accounted for by the annual premiums. These last for 15 or 20 years now. This part is predictable because those trees will be there for that length of time. Where we do not have the same predictability is in planting. We have much more predictability over felling, although there is not the same cost...

Darragh O'Brien: The Deputy should be down in the Abbey.
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (5 Nov 2024)
Simon Harris: Deputy McDonald is terribly confident about the outcome of the next election when she says I am walking out the door for the final time and all of this sort of stuff. It is good to see the arrogance is back. The reality is that this Government took a responsible decision today. We decided to set housing targets for the next five years to show people how, over the period from now to 2030,...

- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (5 Nov 2024)
Simon Harris: We can credibly show people how we are going to do it. Sinn Féin is still refusing to answer the question of the issues the banks raised with it. When will the Deputy tell us what they are? When will she answer those questions?
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (5 Nov 2024)
Ivana Bacik: By all accounts, this will be the last time the Taoiseach and I speak during Leaders' Questions. I want to ensure constructive engagement rather than engaging in cheap political shots. That is important. It is fitting that I ask the Taoiseach about the issue that, above all else, has defined his Government's term in office, the housing crisis. This affects every family and every...

Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Supplementary) (5 Nov 2024) Charlie McConalogue: Ensuring farmers get the service they are entitled to from the Department and in terms of the schemes we run is something I take very seriously.

ACRES has been a challenge but the other schemes have worked. For the first year the CAP worked...
