Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Public Petitions Received (17 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: It may be. To be honest, the response from the council has been fulsome. The committee recommends that the response be sent to the petitioner, but while litigation is ongoing, our hands are probably tied. What Deputy Buckley mentioned may be a way out of it. Is that agreed? Agreed. The next petition is No. P00055/24 "Connect Eating Disorder Care and Provide a Sufficient Level of...

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Public Petitions Received (17 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: I can confirm, having represented a family in these circumstances, that the gaps in the system are significant. When you try to change them, you are bounced from one place to another, which is very disappointing and heartbreaking for families. We will see what happens. Is it agreed that we will publish them and wait for responses to come back?

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Public Petitions Received (17 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: It is a timely petition in light of the current issues regarding overall airport capacity and the extra flights. I agree with Deputy Buckley. We need more detail about what is involved in the review that is taking place. We can make some sort of judgment on what type of consultation is involved between the petitioner and the DAA. If everyone is happy, is that agreed?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: I thank Mr. Honan for a comprehensive and informative opening statement. It is very much appreciated by the committee as it gives us a good steer on what is at the moment only the heads of a Bill. That gives us an idea but we have to flesh out this process to ensure that we capture as many third-party views as possible, such as those of Cyber Ireland and the organisations it represents, as...
