Éamon Ó Cuív: Beidh mé in ann labhairt ar a son go cinnte dearfa. Evacuations from islands happen all the time. They have always happened. We have improved ferry services, and there are lifeboats on some of the islands. We also have the helicopter rescue service, which is extremely important for the islands. However, the number of evacuations has grown rapidly as mass tourism has come to the...

Éamon Ó Cuív: One of the great frustrations of being a Member of this House are the padded answers that tell you everything except what you need to know and that address everything except what you addressed.

In my opening remarks, I referred to the extra...

- Report on Energy Poverty 2024: Motion (10 Oct 2024)
Seán Ó Fearghaíl: I thank the Minister of State and I thank all three Deputies for contributing. As someone who, at the Business Committee, has to manage competing demands for additional time to talk on important matters, I have to say it is profoundly disappointing to come in here tonight to have a topic of enormous importance before us and, apart from Deputy Ó Cathasaigh as Leas-Chathaoirleach and the...

- Report on Energy Poverty 2024: Motion (10 Oct 2024)
Marc Ó Cathasaigh: I thank the Minister of State and Deputy O'Rourke for their contributions on the report. I will not go back into the detail but I will attempt to address some of the comments that were made. We have to distinguish between what we are trying to do in the short term, the medium term and the long term. In the long term, the goal is to retrofit all of our housing stock so that people will...
