Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 09/10/2026€20.8 million was spent on Tusla’s ICT in 2025, with approximately €21 million expected in 2026. Once again, where is the oversight on public spending? @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Another Budget delivered by this government that shows they are not on the side of ordinary Irish people. We in Sinn Féin will keep fighting to put workers and families first and show what can be done to make life more affordable, with real leadership and the right choices. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000

Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I've requested that checkers identify everything needed, including any additional documents, in the first instance, rather than people having to send documents back and forth. 100
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Have you experienced this with your passport application? I've had people contact my office about long waiting times due to issues with the checks. 110
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The British Secretary of State doesn't get to down tools and walk away from this. The political solution is for the British Secretary of State to step in and stop this march now. There is no going back. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever. Sinn Féin stands fully with the Garvaghy Road community. 030
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Support is growing every day across Ireland and internationally for the Garvaghy Road residents. Their right of this community to live peacefully, free from fear and sectarian intimidation, must be protected. The Parade Commission got their decision disastrously wrong. 153
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Four of the HSE’s top ten earners are in Cavan Hospital. One consultant was paid €910,000. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 30/09/2026For two decades, medical card income thresholds for people under 69 have remained the same. As costs continue to rise, eligibility limits need to be reconsidered. Access to healthcare should not become harder as household costs rise. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 29/09/202620% of scheduled BreastCheck screenings didn't happen last year. 122,334 missed targets over the past three years. 45% of breast cancer surgeries are not happening within the recommended timeframe. These figures are concerning. Women deserve timely access to screening, diagnosis and treatment. 011
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Government must stop fare hikes and put workers and families first. Sinn Féin will bring our transport plan to the Dáil today: -Stop Fare Hikes -Free Public Travel for U18s -Better bus and rail services -Investment in Rural Transport & Connecting Ireland Rural Bus Scheme -Improve disability access 110
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 25/09/202618 assessments out of 800 applicants. This is not good enough. The children and families of Cavan-Monaghan deserve better. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Every year, it is the same issue over and over again. Parents and students deserve better. It’s time for answers and action on school transport. #SchoolTransport @sinn-fein.bsky.social 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Sinn Féin TD for Cavan-Monaghan Cathy Bennett has called on Government TDs to support Sinn Féin’s legislation to act decisively by removing carbon tax from home heating oil for as long as prices remain high. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I’m delighted to see that Bus Éireann has been given the go ahead with an expansion of the Monaghan Town bus station. This is something that I have been calling for quite a while. I want to ensure that Monaghan bus station is open to the public during the night. 000

Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 12/08/2026This was highlighted to the Department in 2022. It’s now 2026, and the issues are just coming before the PAC. €50 million of taxpayers’ money that could have been spent on other projects like the MetroLink. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 011

Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 06/08/2026School should be about learning, not worrying about the associated costs. Between school contributions, digital devices and exam fees, the costs keep adding up for families. 010

Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I look forward to seeing this vision delivered on schedule and becoming a reality for the people of Cavan and Monaghan. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 31/07/2026For too long, County Monaghan has been left without a rail network. I welcome confirmation that the All-Island Strategic Rail Review includes proposals to reconnect our county. 110
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 29/07/2026If you or someone you know has been affected by endometriosis, please complete Sinn Féin's survey to help strengthen the case for better care: sinnfein.ie/endometriosi... You can also scan the QR code at the end of the video. @sinn-fein.bsky.socialsinnfein.ieEndometriosis Survey - Sinn Féin 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Free contraception is a positive step, but it is not a solution for endometriosis. Too many women are waiting years for a diagnosis or having to travel abroad for specialist care. We need better endometriosis services, not just expanded access to contraception. 100
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 22/07/2026The people of Monaghan deserve better. No rail network. A bus station that is closed to the public at night. No hourly bus to Dublin. I'd welcome your feedback 👇 010

Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Post offices are a lifeline for rural communities. While increased funding is welcome, we need a long-term plan to protect this vital service. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 16/07/2026The Government has gone back on its commitment to provide refuge spaces in Cavan and Monaghan. That is not good enough. Victims of domestic abuse should never be the ones forced to leave their homes. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 16/07/2026I welcome the recent progress on measures relating to domestic abuse, but the legislation and policies must be right. 110
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Limiting the EV scrappage scheme to 2,000 vehicles is a cop-out by the Minister for Transport. If we want people to make more environmentally friendly choices and switch to electric vehicles, we need to do better than this. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 110
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 07/07/2026The Department of Rural and Community Development and the Gaeltacht isn’t spending enough on the Irish language. If we want Gaeilge to thrive, we need to see greater investment. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 01/07/2026The Government needs to deliver a clear plan for childcare. Our early years educators, families, and children deserve better. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 010
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Delighted to attend #SEAS26 – Irish Language and Gaeltacht Advocacy Day. Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael need to provide more funding to increase the use of the Irish language 🇮🇪 @cnagaeilge.bsky.social 011
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Since 2020, millions have been spent on modular accommodation. It should be invested in permanent, purpose-built buildings instead. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Why did the HSE not purchase Rainbow Lodge? @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 24/06/2026More than 11,000 children are waiting for orthodontic treatment. In Monaghan, 0 out of 832 children received a dental check-up in the 2024-25 cohort. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Over 500,000 households are now in energy arrears.Families are struggling while big tech and data centres get a free pass. Action is needed to end the practice of households subsidising energy bills for big tech companies and to restore energy supports for those who need them.@sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
Cathy Bennett @cathybennetttd.bsky.social · 18/06/2026This afternoon, I asked the Tánaiste to consider the case of restoring a full Accident and Emergency Service at Monaghan Hospital. @sinn-fein.bsky.social 000
