@AllianzIreland how long does it take to get a mortgage provider details updated on a home insurance policy? I was meant to move into my new home today but can't until this is sorted. The policy was through a broker so myallianz is no good to me.

@AerLingus Check in has just opened. But with these sorts of queries, could you not answer directly so anyone impacted could see?

[Mary Cosgrove @MaryCosg]

@AerLingus when are you going to open the check in desks at Las Palmas airport for the delayed 20:25 flight?

Ireland is less than 70% Catholic and there are over 700,000 people with no religion (which is more than 5 times the Church of Ireland numbers).
No more foot dragging on divesting schools from the Catholic church.

@PaulDalyROI @QasimRashid It is "full rate equivalents", so the amount of guaranteed income divided by average income. On that measure, Ireland does very badly.

@joannie67 @MaryMcAuliffe4 @Lamhfada And the man sentenced this week for a horrific attack on an 86 year old woman had, in his drug addled state, thought she was a man dressed as a woman. The anti-trans tropes harm everyone.

The Minister also says it should never have been shared, even as to raise awareness of the event.

And this goes to the heart of a tension here. The Minister’s exhibiting institutional thinking- things are left to the Authorities to address.

Except they weren’t addressing it

@TolleyTax @BKLtweets @DanNeidle Well deserved.

@johncosgrove405 Northern Ireland and Ireland did carry out the assessments but when that cohort of students were in 5th class (and so 6 months older). When they are included (table 1.3of the report) England falls to 6th place.

3) Mothers feared leaving their relationship as the perpetrator told them they would lose their kids. Their fears were valid. I provided medical evidence of assault in many cases & children were still placed with the perpetrator at the point of separation.

@Sandra_NiD I'm so sorry Sandra. But what a great age. I am sure she was very proud of you, another force of nature.

@welfare.ie are still sending out letters dated over a week before. This arrived today, dated April 29th (which was a Saturday).
There is no good reason for this.

[Mary Cosgrove @MaryCosg]

@welfare.ie I got a child benefit letter today, dated August 27th. Everytime I get one the date is at least a week old. Given that there is a strict time frame to respond, how can you justify this?

It is, frankly, unwise of DPER to continue to intertwine its use of this database into fresh new areas, unnecessarily and therefore unlawfully, while the whole project faces an imminent decision on its lawfulness.

This is an outrageous comment by the chair of An Bord Pleanála and she should apologise for it to @FredPLogue, a professional who represents the interests of his clients.

If a state body wishes to reduce its exposure to legal challenges, it should address why it keeps losing.
