The Dáil should return next week, on Tuesday 25th August, not after the schools.
There are too many serious issues to be discussed, and we must restore the confidence of the public.
This is the letter I wrote to the Taoiseach today asking him to bring us back.

For more than a month the Labour Party has called for a workable childcare plan.
Despite thousands of workplaces re-opening tomorrow there are no Government plans to support parents.
And women will bear most of the burden. It’s not good enough.
James Connolly is an inspiration to everyone in the @labour Party. Many try to claim his legacy now but they can’t have it.
Labour is Connolly’s Party and as the custodians of his legacy we are and always will be the Party of work. 🌹
Non-Covid preventable deaths are a real concern for me. We should use the private hospitals deal to help with the backlog. @alankellylabour#TonightVMTV
Pre-school owners like Councillor @Pam_Kearns are calling on the Government to give clarity on their insurance.
Small businesses can’t afford to be saddled with Covid-19 claims. It’s time for the Government to step in and take action to help protect jobs.
Too many jobs are at risk because insurance companies are refusing to provide cover for coronavirus-related claims.
We need action now - Government now needs to step in & use the State Claims Agency to indemnify against the risk of people getting Covid-19

The Government’s handling of the #LeavingCert has been an unmitigated disaster to date.
The stress that has been put on the class of 2020 and their families has been unbelievable.
Serious questions from my colleague @AodhanORiordain need to answered on their Plan B.
We could have both the flu and Covid-19 in our hospitals this coming Winter - but we can help stop the flu.
We want the flu vaccine made free for all in the coming months. 💉
With us? Sign our petition calling on the Government to make the flu jab free 👉https://t.co/DuFLkQl6Yd
If the Taoiseach wants to encourage more people to get the flu vaccine, then it should be free at the point of access for all citizens this year. https://t.co/dVtzyzZkIB #LateLateShow
