Rugby World Cup 2023 Bill 2017: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: It could do because the State has the right to gain the commercial rights, and those commercial rights include rights to selling tickets, spaces or other things. All I am asking about is what the State, under section 4, is going to do. The Minister already mentioned that the State is subject to commercial sensitivity requirements so I am not asking him to divulge any information in this...

Rugby World Cup 2023 Bill 2017: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I have no intention of delaying the Bill as I would like it passed. First, given this is the section dealing with the tournament company, I find it odd there was no answer as to why the company would be registered in the Isle of Man. Is that contrary to what is proposed, namely, that this be formed and registered under the Companies Act, which I presume relates to Ireland? Nonetheless, the...

Rugby World Cup 2023 Bill 2017: Second Stage (5 Jul 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: It would be a proud day for Ireland, North and South, if we were to win the bid to host the Rugby World Cup, but that would be the easy part. The challenge would start from that day. The easy part is us passing legislation underwriting the company that would be formed. The challenge is how to undertake the biggest sporting tournament this country has hosted thus far. I know there are...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Other Questions: Commemorative Events (20 Jun 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: It is a pity the Minister is not here. In fact, this question and Question No. 70 were originally put to the Taoiseach but for some reason, they were bounced to the Minister. I was asking about which events the Taoiseach attended. Given that most of the events seem to be bye or bye, there has been no decade of centenaries committee meeting since last year despite the fact that this is...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Other Questions: Commemorative Events (20 Jun 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I have no problem with what the Minister of State said but one of the key lessons we have learned to date in the decade of commemorations is that there needs to be planning. There needs to be a timeframe. Regardless of whether it is planning to commemorate the ending of World War I in 18 months' time or the major event that was the Westminster elections of December 1918, they need to be...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Other Questions: Commemorative Events (20 Jun 2017)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I agree with Deputy Joan Burton, particularly in respect of the major events. I can give a huge list which includes the revolutionary period. The counter-revolutionary period also needs to be considered.
