RT @LNBDublin: Under my FOI it has been confirmed that not only did Householders unknowingly subsidise the electricity bills of large energy users inc Data Centres for 12 years but the Government did so on the back of lobbying from industry and used recession as excuse.

Shameful stuff!
Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael & Green TDs ABSTAIN on Sinn Féin motion demanding end to Coillte’s Joint Venture with British investment fund.
For all their bluff and bluster government will allow the land-grab to proceed - with clear intention that others will follow.

RT @sinnfeinireland: Government must come clean on Coillte - @mattcarthy
“Not only were government aware of Coillte plans to enter into a joint venture with a British investment fund, they gave them a mandate, through a shareholder letter of expectation, to seal the deal."

This is new -

In all seriousness, @EamonRyan must do better - people can have literacy challenges for many different reasons, state agencies should be making it as easy as possible to access services such as driver theory tests - a phone support line would be a good first step.

Only Eamon Ryan could give such an answer.
In order to avail of Driver Theory Test supports, a functionally illiterate applicant must write to the service…

RT @sinnfeinireland: This whole saga with Fine Gael's Minister has the stench of cronyism and favours for insiders. His ever changing cock and bull story, his ducking and diving to evade accountability has been an exercise in deliberate concealment and cover up from start to finish – @MaryLouMcDonald

This week TDs can stop the proposed Coillte Joint Venture with Gresham House that would see thousands of hectares of Irish land transfered to a British investment fund.
SF motion calls for a forestry policy that works for communities, the environment and local economies.

RT @sinnfeinireland: The cosy relationship between millionaire developers & senior politicians is at the heart of why we need strong ethics legislation, but also, for Ministers to adhere to it.

RT @caulmick: Goes to the reason why so many people have lost faith in political system.
Seems to be this cosy relationship between millionaire developers & senior politicians. Not only do we need strong ethics legislation but Ministers to adhere to it -@mattcarthy

Sinn Féin will bring a PMB motion to the Dáil next week demanding that government immediately halt Coillte’s proposed joint venture with investment fund Gresham House.
TDs will get the chance to support rural communities and put a stop to this corporate land-grab.

Government have failed to create a Forestry policy that delivers for the environment, communities and local economies.
Now, they want to hand over €2billion to facilitate a land-grab by a British fund.
The Coillte joint venture with Gresham House must be stopped immediately!

RT @sinnfeinireland: Minister Paschal Donohoe has been caught out and there are serious questions that need to be asked of him
The Minister must make a comprehensive statement in the Dáil setting out what he knew & when, because the explanation provided so far simply does not stack up – @mattcarthy

RT @sinnfeinireland: Paschal Donohoe’s explanation for breach of electoral rules ‘simply not credible’ - @loreillysf
"The only reason it appears he has now broken his silence on this issue is because SIPO wrote to him on Friday."

RT @davidcullinane: Despite a promise by Minister Donnelly to reduce hospital waiting lists by 18% in 2022 his plan only managed to reduce waiting lists by a mere 1%. Given this spectacular failure it would take the Minister 100 years to eliminate waiting lists. Another clear failure.
