Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht – Questions on Policy or Legislation (24 Oct 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I wish to be associated with the comments made earlier in regard to Deputy Denis Naughten in his last contribution to the House. In what I hope will not be my last contribution to the House, and I imagine many of us are in the same position, I raise the issue of Scoil Chiaráin on St. Canice's Road, in my area, which is a special school. Earlier in the summer, it received full...

Chris Andrews: The Dublin City task force launched earlier this week. It is hard to believe the Government needed to do a report to tell you what was wrong with Dublin City Council because we have been saying it in this House for years. I have been telling the Minister the issues with the redevelopment of the flat complexes. One of the task force proposals was the fast-tracking of flat regeneration,...

Darragh O'Brien: I welcome the task force report. I will agree with the Deputy on this. There are things in it we were doing already and there are things in it we know we need to do.

We have had some very good regeneration projects completed in...

Darragh O'Brien: The local authorities have more funding now than they have ever had. I have to say that the leadership of the new chief executive of Dublin City Council, Mr. Richard Shakespeare, and the focus he has brought to bear on housing is very welcome. Dublin City Council is delivering some fantastic new schemes and on the refurbishment and regeneration. There are in excess of 100 refurbishment and...

Fergus O'Dowd: As a TD for County Louth, I share the views of all my constituents on the appalling vista facing us, whereby an eight-year-old boy has disappeared without trace, having been missing for at least two years. I was shocked and horrified by this. We urge anybody with information to go to the Garda immediately and urgently. It is entirely unacceptable that, in the modern world, a child can...
