Christopher O'Sullivan: I thank Mr. Gleeson and Ms Attridge for the update. It is very important that this is progressed. There are a couple of other issues I wish to raise. In Castletownbere, there is an issue with drinking water supply. It is right on the west of my constituency, on the Beara Peninsula. The council is not granting planning permission at the moment, not even for one-off houses, because of an...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Control of Horses (13 Jun 2024) See 2 other results from this debate

Pádraig O'Sullivan: I welcome the improvements but it is worth highlighting that, under current legislation, responsibility for ensuring the welfare of animals, horses in this case, falls on the owner of the animal. I am concerned about this, with yesterday’s programme in mind. I do not think what was contained in the programme was that surprising to some of us who have followed this over recent years....

Pádraig O'Sullivan: I concur with the Minister. Many people in the industry would say that without the likes of the first home scheme and all the other initiatives we have spoken about, homes would be unaffordable for a certain cohort. I support the scheme and am fully with the Minister. Perhaps he could speak to his intention to keep the scheme going if the current Government is re-elected and if he remains...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Sports Funding (30 May 2024)

Thomas Byrne: A wide range of very important issues were raised. The purchase of land is a key issue. Let us be straight - we all have a role to play at every level of government. Local authorities have a role to play in this. Councillors of all parties should be really focusing on this issue when zoning land. There are no restrictions on zoning land for sports facilities and making certain things...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Broadcasting Sector (30 May 2024)

Pádraig O'Sullivan: ...their news information from local radio stations. That is worth bearing in mind. I assume Deputy O'Connor was referring to the likes of Radio Youghal. I would refer to Cork City Community Radio and CUH FM Hospital Radio, not to mention bigger broadcasters like Cork's 96FM and C103. This type of funding is fundamental for them to continue doing what they do. In an era of...

Christopher O'Sullivan: In a slight departure from the triple lock, I will bring the Taoiseach back to Bere Island off west Cork. The Department of Defence has an important training facility there for naval personnel. Unfortunately, there is an issue with Department of Defence-owned infrastructure there, namely, a slipway at Lawrence Cove. It is an important slipway used by naval personnel but also by a car ferry...

Christopher O'Sullivan: I do not say this lightly, but when it comes to our islanders and healthcare, they are treated as second-class citizens. This is especially the case in the west Cork islands and I will explain why. On Bere Island, which is near Castletownbere, at one point they had two full-time nurses. They had nursing cover on the island for 24 hours a day, seven days per week, but they now only have one...

Ned O'Sullivan: I am conscious that I am somewhat of an outlier in this House in my opinion on what is happening vis-à-vis the Hamas-Israel war.

I know this because schools throughout my constituency are...

Ireland's Recognition of the State of Palestine: Statements (28 May 2024)

Pádraig O'Sullivan: I will speak in favour of our nation's decision to recognise the right of Palestinians to exist in their own state. In 1980, it was my party that led Ireland to become the first EU member state to declare that a solution to the conflict in the Middle East lay in a two-state solution under which a fully independent Palestine and an independent Israel could coexist. As time has passed, in...
