Matt Carthy
Rhetoric & votes →On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 52 of 1,007 decisive votes (14 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.

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

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation
I am sure the Tánaiste will join me in welcoming the imminent announcement that the British and Irish bid to host the UEFA Euro 2028 competition is set to be successful. We all look forward to seeing fans from across Europe attending games in the Aviva Stadium in Dublin and Casement Park in Belfast. First, however, we need to ensure that the redevelopment of Casement Park is completed on time. I would appreciate it if the Tánaiste would outline the role he sees his Government taking to support the redevelopment of …

Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Human Trafficking) Bill 2023: Second Stage
I welcome the progression of this Bill, which contains a number of important provisions with regard to both sexual offences and human trafficking. New national referral mechanisms for victims of human trafficking will be a very positive and important step and stand as the type of additional human trafficking measures for which Sinn Féin and many others have long advocated. Likewise, measures that will allow the Government to ratify the second operational protocol of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child are …

School Transport 2023-2024: Statements
I welcome the opportunity to debate the issue of school transport but not the need to debate it in yet another autumn. The Minister will recall that when we raised this issue last year we were told to wait for a review of school transport, which at that stage had been ongoing for one and half years. It has now been ongoing for two and a half years and we still do not have it. All the while, we are hearing the stories of families who have been discommoded and put under enormous pressures because in some instances sc…

Defence Forces
Today, the Representative Association of Commissioned Officers, RACO, was before the Joint Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defence. In outlining the changes that have occurred during this Government's time in office, one speaker said, "the only thing that really has changed is the strength of the organisation, and ... not for the better". Nowhere is that more true than in the number of members of our Reserve Defence Force. Will the Minister inform the House about his proposals to reverse the downward trend in the …
