Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Public Transport (26 Jun 2025)

Seán Canney: The Deputy has spoken to me before about this issue. I really appreciate his bringing it to light. From the outset, I would like to clarify that the Minister for Transport has responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. However, neither the Minister nor his officials are involved in the day-to-day operation of public transport services. The statutory...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Road Projects (26 Jun 2025)

Michael Cahill: Killarney is the best town in Ireland for a town of its size. It is also the best town in Europe for a town of its size. Everyone goes to Killarney. I cannot emphasise strongly enough how important this project is. It is in the making for quite a number of years but it has come to the point where action is required right now. It should be at the very top of the political priority...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Road Projects (26 Jun 2025)

Seán Canney: I have been to Killarney as well, like most people in Ireland, on a number of occasions and had good memories coming away from it. The N22 project is included in the national development plan, NDP, and has received a significant funding allocation for 2025. As I said, approximately €502 million of Exchequer capital funds was provided to TII for national roads this year. In line...

Departmental Funding

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Departmental Funding (26 Jun 2025)

Denise Mitchell: St. Luke's Youth Club and community centre in Kilmore West has been closed since 2023. The centre was used by many groups within the community, from football clubs to ladies groups and summer projects. In 2023, I contacted Dublin City Council, DCC, regarding the closure of the building. I received an email - I have it here for the Minister of State - informing me that a report into the...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Departmental Funding (26 Jun 2025)

Dessie Ellis: St. Luke's community centre was built decades ago. At the time, the community of Kilmore and surrounding areas fought tooth and nail to get this badly needed facility. For the best part of a year and a half, it has been closed by Dublin City Council. With little or no consultation with the community, the building was blocked up and closed and access refused. The building itself is in good...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Departmental Funding (26 Jun 2025)

Seán Canney: First of all, I am shocked to hear that girls and boys have to change their clothes out in the open. It is fairly archaic and dangerous. The Government recognises the important role that community centres play in community life in Ireland, particularly in bringing people together and engaging with those who may be marginalised or disadvantaged. Over the past four years, the Department...

Road Projects

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Road Projects (26 Jun 2025)

Michael Cahill: The town of Killarney is choked with traffic almost daily. This is causing mass frustration for residents, local businesses and visitors alike. Members of the public are missing trains and buses, along with GP, dental and hospital appointments, and many others, because of the gridlock. Killarney in County Kerry is the capital of tourism in Ireland and is the main reason for visiting this...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Road Projects (26 Jun 2025)

Seán Canney: I thank Deputy Cahill for raising this matter. The new programme for Government acknowledges "that good connectivity within the country ... is essential to foster continued economic growth, for communities, and our tourism industry". We have committed to investing in all road projects in the current national development plan, NDP, and to work on improving infrastructure to key tourism...

Criminal Justice (Terrorist Offences) (Amendment) Bill 2025: Second Stage (26 Jun 2025)

Jim O'Callaghan: I do not think the Deputy will. It passed yesterday without a vote.

Criminal Justice (Terrorist Offences) (Amendment) Bill 2025: Second Stage (26 Jun 2025)

Ruth Coppinger: Perhaps I could comment on the general maintenance of the Special Criminal Court and the idea of maintaining trials without juries. It is ironic that we talked last month about the counselling notes issue and the Minister said it would be unconstitutional because of the pressing right to a fair trial in our Constitution, yet we can have non-jury trials. How does he match that up? Rape...
