- South Coast Designated Maritime Area Plan for Offshore Renewable Energy: Motion (10 Oct 2024)
Ossian Smyth: I move: That Dáil Éireann approves the draft South Coast Designated Maritime Area Plan for Offshore Renewable Energy, a copy of which was laid before Dáil Éireann on 26th September, 2024. On behalf of the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications, I welcome this opportunity to seek the support of Deputies for Ireland’s first forward spatial plan...

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: I wish to say something before the Tánaiste comes in. This is the second Deputy to criticise the Taoiseach. The Taoiseach will be here next week I suspect. If Members have matters to confront him with, they are more than welcome to do so then. I think it would be much better to voice that criticism to him directly than to ask somebody else to answer for his actions.

- Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (10 Oct 2024)
Micheál Martin: I make the point generally that President Biden was of some assistance to Ireland in respect of Brexit and in the Good Friday Agreement. He has supported the Good Friday Agreement all his life, but particularly during Brexit. We were anxious to commemorate 100 years of diplomatic relations between the US and Ireland. That is a good thing. I am not anti-US generally. The Deputy may be but...

- Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (10 Oct 2024)
Micheál Martin: The Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, and the Department of Transport are responsible for that area because it is civilian overflight. As the Deputy knows, anyone wanting to fly weaponry through Irish sovereign airspace must seek permission.

Johnny Mythen: I was contacted last night by some concerned staff at Wexford General Hospital. They were told by a senior member of staff that their seasonal flu vaccines and Covid vaccines would not be provided to them in their workplace due to a funding issue. As the Tánaiste knows, this is a preventive measure for the health and safety of workers who are at high risk and it also limits the rate of...

Cathal Crowe: I have a letter here from a senior management official in Clare County Council. I will just read the beginning of it. It is written to Government. I am writing to you regarding the deepening focus on migrant accommodation in north Clare, specifically in Lisdoonvarna and Ballyvaughan. I am urging you to reduce the numbers of migrants in these settlements to reasonable levels as I have...

- Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (10 Oct 2024)
Cathal Crowe: They are Ukrainians and international protection applicants. They have been welcomed. I want to make it crystal clear that there has been no hassle. The council, the county management team, the HSE and people in education have pointed out that when they represent 125% of the settled population, something has to give. We are asking for better management. A simple thing would be not to...
