- Local Authority Public Administration Bill 2023: Second Stage [Private Members] (26 Sep 2024)
Robert Troy: I thank the Minister of State and the previous two speakers from Sinn Féin who contributed. It is welcome that there is broad agreement on the objectives of this Bill. Of course, when you are in opposition or on the back bench of Government, you do not have the wherewithal to ensure that everything in the drafting of the Bill is to the standard of one brought forward by the Government....

In fairness, Deputy Troy has detailed some of the issues. Some of us elected representatives have been...
- Local Authority Public Administration Bill 2023: Second Stage [Private Members] (26 Sep 2024)
Alan Dillon: I thank Deputy Troy for proposing this Bill. We must put the citizens relying on local government and those we represent at the heart of everything we do. The desire here is to ensure the large range of services provided by local government can be delivered more effectively and efficiently. This legislation is to be welcomed in that regard. I am also sure, and I am sure my colleagues in...
- Local Authority Public Administration Bill 2023: Second Stage [Private Members] (26 Sep 2024)

Denise Mitchell: I am sharing time with my colleague, Deputy Ó Murchú. I thank Deputy Troy for moving this Bill. We will support its progress to Committee Stage, where we can analyse it further.

- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: General Practitioner Services (26 Sep 2024)
Gary Gannon: I thank the Minister of State for the response. This is where my frustration and that of the practitioners comes from, as well as, most importantly, the concern of the multitude of different communities and mostly vulnerable communities that avail of that service.
