- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)
Johnny Mythen: I suggest, a Leas-Chathaoirligh, that based on suggestions from people here that we write to the Minister and ask him to put an animal welfare representative on the committee. Maybe the Leas-Chathaoirleach could qualify that himself.

Johnny Mythen: Yes, I thank the Leas-Chathaoirleach. The witnesses mentioned setting up a Garda unit on this. Have they looked at other countries where this exists and models that have worked?

Réada Cronin: The last time I attended this committee, the breeders and racecourse owners were before us. I spoke to them about a national retirement fund, and I know this group has also spoken to them about a retirement fund for thoroughbreds. Has My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue had any response from the racing industry or Minister around that?

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)
Réada Cronin: Something I was working on after the "RTÉ Investigates" programme into Shannonside Foods Ltd. was a register on animal abusers and people who have been found guilty. The Minister was not keen on it because he said they were reported on in the media and that was enough. It is, however, not something we can rely on. I was heartened by the number of rural TDs, not just urban, who were...

Réada Cronin: Is there any contact between the gardaí who are working with My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue as volunteers? Has there been any communication with other states around how they set that up?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)
Pauline Tully: Deputy Feighan referred to accessibility of buildings, and that is extremely important in centres, but accessibility of information is also very important. Do the Department of Health and the HSE incorporate easy-to-read versions on their websites and hard copies of literature? Do they provide ISL to those who require it? Do they provide information through braille? People who are blind...

- Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Sinn Féin is not opposing the amendment. However, I must say that a number of the justifications used by the Minister of State in describing the amendment are not factually correct. I would like to give him the opportunity to clarify some of the aspects behind this very specific amendment given that it is a very significant amount of money. The LDA does not have access to over...
