Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

I add my voice to that of Deputy Smith in respect of the case he made. Commuters from Dundalk are constantly talking about the issues that exist in regard to Irish Rail. It is a case of insufficient capacity and it needs to be dealt with.
There is no shortage of issues relating to disability in the public domain this week.
That is obviously what the Children's Rights Alliance said in relation to the issues that children are facing being unacceptable and unconstitutional. We have heard about the protest planned regarding the lack of school places for children with additional needs. We have seen the HIQA report on Sunbeam House, obviously, not providing the service required. On disability services, in the section 39 organisations, there is the issue in of the non-follow through on payment and the fear of what the pay and number strategy will mean in loss of jobs in disability services.
