Election 2024: What do the parties say about security, defence, crime, policing, and drugs?
AnalysisThere are already long-standing committees on national security, so it’s not clear why they want a new one. The call for a national policy statement on national security is odd as the country has been waiting many years for a promised national security strategy, devised by the National Security Analysis Centre (NSAC), of which there is no mention. AnalysisEven if people are sceptical about implementation, experts believe the proposals on national security at least indicate a growing realisation that security is a priority. Fianna Fáil doesn’t mention the National Screening Advisory Committee (NSAC) either, nor the national security strategy. Its reference to a new security framework is despite the fact we are still awaiting the national security strategy by NSAC.

Meet the candidates: Eddie Fitzpatrick, Independent (Offaly)
Independent general election candidate Eddie FitzpatrickMeet the candidates: Eddie Fitzpatrick, IndependentHere is our Q&A with Eddie Fitzpatrick who is running as an Independent in the Offaly constituency. As an Independent I don't believe in always being critical, you have to work within the system as it presents itself. If you have the ear of a Minister as an Independent TD, that can work to your advantage in getting things done at local level, and that's the type of Independent I would hope to be. The funding allocated to county Offaly so far has been less than adequate, and I do believe that the whole Just Transition process has been diluted across too many counties. Offaly has been the county most severely impacted by the move away from turf and fossil fuels and needs more support.

Rates increase proposal faces opposition from Cllrs
Rates increase proposal faces opposition from CllrsThe proposal of a three percent rates increase in Westmeath is proving contentious at this morning's Westmeath County Council statutory budget meeting with elected representatives pitted against council officials who are arguing that the increase is necessary. A thirty minute adjournment has been called to allow members come up with ways of negating the €392,751 impact that will result if the rate increase sought by the executive is not approved. County CEO Barry Kehoe, setting out the current and projected budgetary position, told members that in preparing the budget, the management team wanted to lay the groundwork for the council’s term right through to 2029. To that end, he said, it was vital that the council adopt a medium-term approach, so that the development of Westmeath and, thereby, the quality of life locally can be maintained and improved to the maximum extent possible. Mr Kehoe said the council's draft budget anticipated expenditure in Westmeath this year of a total of €117.6 million, an increase of around €9.5 million on the 2024 figure, which was of €108.1 million.

Meet the candidates: Aoife Masterson, Sinn FéinHere is our Q & A with Aoife Masterson from Tullamore, who was one of three Sinn Féin candidates to be elected to Offaly County Council at the recent local elections. Why should people have confidence in Sinn Féin to solve the housing crisis when the party has never been in power before in the Dáil? Sinn Féin will not shy away from the action that needs to be taken, and we are committed to building 300,000 houses over the next five years. What other party or parties would Sinn Féin be prepared to form a coalition Government with? Sinn Féin wants to form the next Government without either Fianna Fail or Fine Gael, but we will exclude nobody.

Council refuses permission for appartments
A planning application for nine apartments in the county has been refused by Roscommon County Council. In September the council received an application for permission to change the use of an existing derelict pub building on Saint Patrick's Street, Castlerea, into nine apartments. The application also sought permission to alter the elevations of the building, the construction of an extension along with alterations to the existing roof. On November 21st, council planners refused permission on four grounds, including that the proposal would be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area. It was also not satisfied that the proposed development would not result in increased or “otherwise undue potential for overlooking of nearby properties”.

Medical scientists to ballot for industrial action over HSE suppression of posts
Eva OsborneMedical scientists will ballot members for industrial action in the coming weeks due to the HSE’s suppression of posts vacant on December 31st, 2023, and failure to replace posts vacant since then. A motion on a ballot was passed unanimously at the 2024 Medical Laboratory Scientists Association (MLSA) AGM. Many medical scientist posts were vacant on December 31st, 2023, due to the longstanding recruitment and retention crisis in the profession, and the situation has worsened since then with further posts becoming vacant, the MLSA said. MLSA general secretary Terry Casey said: “The demands on laboratory services continue to grow, and medical scientists continue to try to keep services going at great personal cost. In a letter to the HSE, the MLSA stated the following reasons for balloting members on industrial action:
