|  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] The Order of Business is No. 1, Finance Bill 2018 - Second Stage, to be taken at 5 p.m. with the time allocated to group spokespersons not to exceed eight minutes and all other Senators not to exceed five minutes.[Noone, Catherine] | Vol-261 Page [615] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] There are more than half a million homes and businesses around the country, not just in rural Ireland but also in north County Dublin, that are without high speed broadband. I mentioned in the House before that not having high speed broadband is detrimental to small businesses i... | Vol-261 Page [615] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Before calling on the next speaker, I welcome former Deputy John Browne and his clan to the Visitors Gallery.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [616] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I welcome that the Deputy Leader is the acting Leader today. I am delighted to see her in the Chair. I will raise a number of issues.[Boyhan, Victor] | Vol-261 Page [616] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I am glad Senator Boyhan mentioned that fantastic location for that wonderful ceremony yesterday.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [617] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] As we are beginning the 16 days of action opposing violence against women, I remember the 225 women who have died violently in this State since 1996. I also remember all of the other women and children who have been impacted by domestic violence and sexual violence. The theme o... | Vol-261 Page [617] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Before I make my comments, I am a bit taken aback by the language that has been used in the Chamber-----[Ó Ríordáin, Aodhán] | Vol-261 Page [618] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] The Senator only has three minutes so perhaps he should not waste too much time making that point.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [618] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I am a bit taken aback by the language that has been used on the proposed injecting centre. I do not believe public representatives, Members of the Oireachtas or anybody in public life should use a phrase like "dumping" when it comes to life-saving interventions such as will be ... | Vol-261 Page [618] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] On a happier note than some of the serious issues that have been discussed, I pay tribute to Joe Schmidt, his back-room team and the IRFU for their phenomenal success during the autumn internationals, particularly against the All Blacks. I think anyone who was at the Aviva Stadi... | Vol-261 Page [619] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] As the House will be aware, there was a recent case in which the judge would not allow a trial to go to a jury because of comments in the media.[Burke, Colm] | Vol-261 Page [619] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Correctly so.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [619] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I agree with the Leas-Chathaoirleach. This just shows how we all need to be careful when matters are before a court. Every person who is charged is innocent until the matter has been dealt with fully by a jury and it comes to a decision that the person is guilty.[Burke, Colm] | Vol-261 Page [619] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Correct.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [619] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] These are very emotional issues and there are very many tragic cases in which people suffer very serious assault and rape in horrendous circumstances. The law, however, is that where a doubt is created, the person must be found innocent. Unfortunately, we need to be extremely c... | Vol-261 Page [619] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I commend the Senator on his initial remarks because they are timely in light of what has happened. Not all allegations are necessarily substantiated or proven.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [620] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] We eagerly look forward to 11 December and hope for a solution at Westminster. We want the closest possible relationship with the United Kingdom and it to have the closest possible relationship with the EU. It will be a very difficult time and what we need now are cool heads. ... | Vol-261 Page [620] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Like my colleagues, I welcome the signing off of the draft agreement on Brexit by the member states of the European Union. I extend to the British Prime Minister, Mrs. Theresa May, every good wish in getting the agreement through her parliament.
I also take this opportunity to... | Vol-261 |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I am raising a concern brought to my attention in recent days involving Shannon Commercial Properties. It is a semi-State company that manages the Shannon free zone in County Clare. The Shannon free zone has been an extremely important element of the commercial activity of Shan... | Vol-261 Page [621] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] I would like to raise two separate but somewhat interconnected issues. In recent years, we have all become used to the hype around the so-called Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.[Mullen, Rónán] | Vol-261 Page [621] |  |
 |  | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Senator Ardagh raised three matters, the first of which was broadband. As stated in recent days, the Government is committed to providing high speed broadband in 100% of the country. Today it noted and accepted the conclusions made in the independent auditor's report. As it is... | Vol-261 Page [622] |  |
| | 27/11/2018 | [Order of Business] Senator Noone has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business: "That No. 1 be taken at 5.15 p.m." Is the amendment agreed? Agreed.[An Leas-Chathaoirleach] | Vol-261 Page [624] |  |
