Teachta / Deputy Fiona O’Loughlin sa Chathaoir / in the Chair. 1 JES The joint committee met in private session until 4.40 p.m. School Transport Scheme: Discussion Chairman: I remind delegates and members to turn off their mobile phones because they interfere with the sound system, making it difficult for the parliamentary reporters to report the proceedings of the meeting. They also affect the television coverage and web streaming. The purpose in this part of the meeting is to discuss with a number of stakeholders matters related to the operation of the school transport scheme. Obviously, it is very important to have a school transport scheme that is fit for purpose and efficient and offers value for money. There is particular interest in the concessionary places and the places for children with special needs who have to attend special classes or special schools. On behalf of the joint committee, I welcome from the Department of Education and Skills Mr. Richard Dolan, principal officer, and Ms Niamh McElduff, assistant principal officer, from the school transport unit.

  • Don't Tax Our Health Choices!
    DON’T TAX OUR HEALTH CHOICES! From March 1st 2019 the Government will be applying VAT at 23% to all Vitamin, Probiotic & Food Supplements. These supplements have been VAT free for the last 40 years! A2 POSTER CODE: VAT03 A4 POSTER CODE: VAT04 +23% Available from Wholefoods VAT HEALTH IS NOT A LUXURY! SIGN THE PETITION TODAY! @stopthisvat www.stopthisvat.ie What is happening: The Revenue Commissioners have decided that on March 1st 2019, 23% VAT will be applied to all health food supplements. This includes Vitamins, Probiotics and Fish Oil. What does this mean? On March 1st 2019, retailers must apply 23% VAT to all health food supplements, resulting in a 23% price increase for consumers. Such a sudden and radical increase in taxation will put a huge strain on consumers and cause many to have to reconsider their approach towards managing their health. This is bound to seriously damage the local Irish businesses that are the cornerstone of the industry sector, particularly if consumers turn to the international Internet to try and obtain a better priced product. What can I do: • Sign the petition (online and in-store) which can be found at www.stopthisvat.ie. • Additional petition hardcopies are available from Wholefoods Wholesale (product code: VAT02). Wholefoods drivers will happily take completed petitions back from you. Please ensure that all petitions are returned to Wholefoods by February 18th. • Actively encourage customers to sign the petition and highlight what VAT will mean for their purchases. • Email or write to your local minister or TD. Sample text can be found on page 3 of this document.

We conducted a search in the archives of four flagship general-interest journals of political science, the American Political Science Review, the American Journal of Political Science, the Journal of Politics, and the British Journal of Political Science, as well as the official journal of the Legislative Studies Section of the American Political Science Association, Legislative Studies Quarterly. Using JSTOR’s search mask, we used the query “(MP OR legislator) AND data” for all fields, filtered for articles only as item type, and restricted the searchto articles published in a period of ten years, between 2009 and 2018. For periods not covered by JSTOR, we referred to the search function for the respective archive hosted by the journal’s publisher. Overall, this search identified 535 articles.
