Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Alan Dillon: I thank the Deputies for their contributions. I am glad there is no dissent or opposition to the amendments being brought forward. The additional funds will secure the delivery of the LDA's 2024-28 business plan, under which there is projected delivery of up to 12,900 homes by 2028. A large pipeline of further direct delivery homes is being developed for completion in the period from...

Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Richard Boyd Barrett: I am happy enough to support this extra capital going towards the LDA, but I would rather that the LDA were something other than what it is. We have argued for some time it should be a fully fledged State construction company. That is the only way we will reach the level of output of social and affordable housing necessary to address the absolutely dire housing crisis we are facing. The...

Michael Fitzmaurice: Thanks.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: Thanks Vice Chair. The witnesses are welcome. The committee need to be honest with them on this. If we had an expert in animal welfare, we would be obliged then to have experts in all different things. What the committee has the flexibility to do is bring in experts like the witnesses who have been invited today or to bring in experts who would know the ins and outs of it to give all...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: Maybe it has changed, but I understood if there was a problem with welfare councils have a vet or a person on animal welfare and the councils were involved in basically rounding up horses.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: I will ask whether the witnesses agree with my analysis. Let us say I have a herd number for cattle or sheep. Before I get that, I must have a cattle crush and a proper shed. Is the same thing being applied in the horse industry? There are some places where I wonder whether they have the facilities at all for handling a horse.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: Would it be a good idea to have a check? The witnesses were saying welfare needs to be taken away from the Department of agriculture, but in fairness to the Department, with cattle, sheep and all that, it has regular inspections for different reasons for different schemes. It might be worth liaising with it to see whether this could be checked up on. There is no point in someone who has...

Michael Fitzmaurice: Can people just buy a horse?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: With livestock, if a farmer buys an animal off some other farmer, within three minutes it is all changed over. Everyone knows where it is.
