Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Tógfaidh mé Ceisteanna Uimh. 1 go 8, go huile, le chéile.

Déanann an coiste comh-aireachta um ghnóthaí sóisialta agus seirbhísí poiblí maoirsiú ar chur i bhfeidhm ghealltanais chlár an Rialtais i réimsí an bheartais shóisialaí agus seirbhísí poiblí. Clúdaíonn an coiste raon ábhar le béim áirithe ar chomhionannas agus athchóiriú an tseirbhís phoiblí. Mar aon leis sin, tá coiste comh-aireachta ar an bhfreagairt dhaonnúil don Úcráin. Déanann sé maoirsiú ar fhreagairt dhaonnúil an Rialtais do dhaoine ón Úcráin a bhfuil cosaint shealadach á lorg acu anseo.

Other topics covered by Cabinet committee on social affairs and public services include sport, social protection, arts and culture. It also covers justice issues, including policing reform, community safety, and domestic sexual and gender-based violence. The committee met on six occasions last year. Among other items the committee discussed were the proposed referendums on gender equality and implementation of the third domestic sexual and gender-based violence strategy. The Cabinet committee on social affairs and public services last met on 20 November and will meet shortly in the period ahead.

In addition to meetings of the Cabinet I have regular engagements with Ministers at Cabinet and individually to discuss issues relating to their Departments.
