Catherine Connolly: Ar aghaidh anois go dtí an tríú Saincheist Tráthúil in ainmneacha na dTeachtaí Seán Sherlock agus Duncan Smith: to discuss the non-payment of pension increases due to retired An Post workers. As the Deputies are sharing time, they have two minutes each.
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Pension Provisions (3 Jul 2024)
Duncan Smith: I congratulate the Minister of State on his elevation and new appointment. Deputy Sherlock and I are here 12 months after bringing this issue up previously regarding the treatment of pensioners in An Post. It is always topical and it has come to our attention again, given developments in pay increases for An Post workers announced in recent months and other issues. What is rooted in all...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Urban Development (3 Jul 2024)
Patrick Costello: The Minister of State said community safety is everybody's responsibility, and it is, but when something is everybody's responsibility, it can quickly become nobody's responsibility, particularly with Departments passing the buck from one to the other. That is why we need a multiagency task force to pull everyone together, as has worked effectively in other areas facing similar problems....
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Urban Development (3 Jul 2024)
Mary Butler: On behalf of the Minister, I thank the Deputies again for raising this issue. As I and both Deputies have said, community safety is a whole-of-government responsibility and it requires a multiagency approach. I agree with the Deputies that there are great communities in the area. They spoke of the role of sports clubs, which are important. I agree on addiction and dual diagnosis issues,...

- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Airport Policy (3 Jul 2024)
David Cullinane: In 2019, as an Oireachtas Member, I attended a meeting with the then Minister for transport, Shane Ross. The Minister of State, Deputy Butler, was at that meeting as well. Mr. Ross essentially at that point signed off on State investment for Waterford Airport. We were told at that meeting - and I had been of the view for some time - that the airport had reached a crossroads and either the...

As the new Minister of State at the Department of Transport since last Thursday, I am delighted to have the opportunity to address the House on this matter and engage on the Deputy's issue. The matter is as close to the Minister of State's, Deputy Butler's, heart as to the Deputy's and is of interest to the south-east region, public representatives...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Two multiagency task forces have been set up in this city in recent years, one in the north inner city and one in Cherry Orchard. On both occasions, I welcomed those multiagency task forces, but I also pointed out that one of the areas with the most deprivation in this city is the Liberties and Dublin 8. I highlighted the need for us to focus on this area where there is intergenerational...

Patrick Costello: Last week, Deputy Ó Snodaigh and I attended a protest with the community outside the community centre on Donore Avenue, which was burnt down in a fire three years ago and has been sitting empty since. Now, that is a problem for Dublin City Council and not one for here, but it is a major one and is emblematic of much of what is happening in the south-west inner city. Even when services...
