Seán Ó Fearghaíl: Is that agreed?

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Oct 2024)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: It is not agreed. There is a motion to be decided without debate before the Dáil tomorrow night to increase the cap on the defective concrete blocks scheme by 10%. The difficulty is large numbers are engaged in the scheme - the Minister, Deputy O'Brien, is here for this - who will be short tens of thousands of euro. In some cases, it is more than €100,000. It is crucial that...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Report of the Commission on the Defence Forces: Engagement with Chair of Implementation Oversight Group (15 Oct 2024)

Matt Carthy: We are a fair bit away from it.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Report of the Commission on the Defence Forces: Engagement with Chair of Implementation Oversight Group (15 Oct 2024)

Matt Carthy: It was remiss of me at the beginning not to mention the members of the Defence Forces currently serving with the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, UNIFIL, under the most difficult of circumstances. These circumstances are equally difficult for their families back home. I wish to record our thanks for the work they are doing and for continuing what is a very proud tradition of Irish...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Report of the Commission on the Defence Forces: Engagement with Chair of Implementation Oversight Group (15 Oct 2024)

Matt Carthy: Cuirim fáilte rompu go léir. I thank the witnesses for being here and thank Ms Sinnamon for her opening statement. I hope Ms Sinnamon does not mind me being a little critical but, with due respect, her statement could have been read by the Tánaiste and Minister for Defence or by an official in the Department. It is important that an oversight body provide a broad oversight...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (15 Oct 2024)

Simon Harris: I thank Deputy Lowry for this important question in relation to aviation policy and indeed the role of Shannon Airport. More broadly, on the passenger cap at Dublin Airport, as the Deputy knows this arises from a 2007 condition attached to planning permission for terminal 2. I do not believe a 17-year-old decision holding back growth in 2024 to be a sustainable situation. I engaged with...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)

Eoin Ó Broin: I thank both organisations for their presentations and the research. We understand how big the piece of research is because two datasets are being compared that are not recording necessarily the same thing, which creates all sorts of challenges. In the first round, I want to understand how the datasets have been separated. As mentioned here, characteristics have been identified in the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)

Eoin Ó Broin: From what has been said, from a statistical point of view there is a stronger basis to say the "formal" ones are formal because they kind of match the dataset from the RTB registrations. The exclusion of the 47,000 is a consequence because they do not match.
