On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 782 of 793 decisive votes (2 abstentions excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.

Party over time

This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation

My question relates to the Charities Act 2009. Are all sections of the Act in operation?

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation

We are rapidly running out of time and there is no hope of dealing with all of the names that are in front of me. I will take one final question. I call Deputy Rose Conway-Walsh.

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation

Okay. I want to clarify that. First, we try to keep it short. If everybody makes a short submission in their first question, we can get through an awful lot more. If, however, people have a preamble before they raise their question, that immediately shortens the time we have. I am working off the list that was given to the Ceann Comhairle.

I am aware of all that. The list is here. The Deputy can come and inspect it now. I am working off the list that was there. The time has now expired altogether-----

I am sorry. We cannot go on like this. We are not going to go on like this. The time has now expired. That is the end of the questions-----

We cannot go on like this. I am sorry about that, but the time has expired. It is to be hoped it will be possible to deal with the remaining questions tomorrow. That will be a matter for the Ceann Comhairle. That concludes Questions on Promised Legislation.

Brexit Preparations

This question seeks to ascertain the extent to which the Government continues to examine the potential impact of Brexit as the year draws to a close.

Brexit Preparations

I thank the Tánaiste for his comprehensive reply. To what degree are he and his Department pursuing the alternative markets that are currently emerging and which might become available, with a view to identifying the best possible options as we proceed? Given that it is in the interests of businesses to keep costs as low as possible, to what extent is the Tánaiste satisfied that we are on the right road and are capable of meeting any challenges we might face?

FG 2020-07-14 · Dail
Brexit Preparations

In the Tánaiste's experience, has the UK's position softened in any way as we approach the end of the year or has it hardened? To what extent does he expect the UK's attitude to impact on the final analysis of our particular economic situation?

We must wait for the appropriate Minister to arrive before taking the second Topical Issue matter. The third Topical Issue matter is in the name of Deputy Sherlock to discuss the planning and construction of an inner relief road for Mallow, County Cork. We have a Minister for that matter.
