Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Tá cúpla ceist agamsa. Aithním an ról lárnach atá ag Fórsa agus an taithí atá ag an eagraíocht mar cheardchumann agus go háirithe ag a chuid ball, agus tá sé seo tábhachtach ionas go mbeimid in ann dul i ngleic leis an sprioc 20% seo. Chun seasamh siar agus breathnú ar an ráiteas tosaigh a bhí ag na...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Tuigim go bhfuil Fórsa ag smaoineamh ar conas gur féidir an Ghaeilge a chur chun cinn. Tuigim sin. I gcás amháin, áfach, tá na finnéithe ag rá linn gur chóir am saor le pá a chur ar fáil do dhaoine Gaeilge a fhoghlaim nuair is deis é seo, go háirithe má tá an cúrsa ar fáil saor in aisce, mar shampla....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Oibríonn sé ar dhá bhealach. Na príomhcheisteanna a bhí agam ná ó thaobh na traenála de. Bhíos ag déanamh iarracht tuiscint a fháil ar cad é an chomparáid anseo. Tuigim gur dúshlán é an sprioc 20%, ach tá deis mhór ann do dhaoine ag obair san earnáil phoiblí dul i ngleic le scileanna agus...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Tuigim sin. Déanann sé sin ciall. Leis sin, cuirfidh mé clabhsúr leis an seisiún seo. Cuireann sé sin deireadh lenár mbreithniú inniu. Gabhaim buíochas leis na hionadaithe, Aisling Cusack agus Paul MacSweeney ón gceardchumann Fórsa as an bplé fiúntach agus tairbheach a bhí againn leo inniu. Cuirfear an seisiún ar...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Tuigim sin ach ní hí sin an cheist atá á cur. An cheist atá agam ná cad iad na socraithe atá ann ó thaobh forbartha pearsanta nó proifisiúnta - professional or personal development. Cad iad na socruithe atá ann faoi láthair chun, say, dul i ngleic le ciníochas - how to address racism in the workplace - nó cúrsa faoi...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Maith go leor. Chuir an Teachta Moynihan ceist cheana féin ó thaobh taighde i gCeanada agus sa Bhreatain Bheag. Is sampla maith í an Bhreatain Bheag, go háirithe le bhur gcomhghleacaithe sa cheardchumann sa Bhreatain Bheag. Bheadh sé suimiúil cloisteáil cad atá ráite acu, cad a d'oibrigh agus cad nár oibrigh, go háirithe don...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Anois déanfaimid ár mbreithniú ar ábhar na hearcaíochta sa tseirbhís phoiblí. Tógfaidh sé seo beagáinín am. Bíodh foighne agaibh liom, más é bhur dtoil é. Fearaim fáilte roimh na hionadaithe thar ceann an cheardchumainn Fórsa, Paul MacSweeney agus Aisling Cusack. Tá céad míle fáilte...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence: Artificial Intelligence in the Public Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: My apologies for being late. I had to chair another meeting and I was excited about being at this one. If I was using agentic, I would be organising to go to an Arsenal match rather than a Spurs match, but how and ever. In a previous life, I worked in the tech industry for quite a long period. The meetings with chief information officers and chief information security officers were always...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence: Artificial Intelligence in the Public Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Both the POC and knowledge management excite me. I am not sure what Mr. Lowry was touching on with agentic AI when replying to Deputy Geoghegan. If we take knowledge base on the HSE's website and Revenue's knowledge base as examples and look at the various Departments of State, and if there were a State LLM or even if the State were using Copilot in some way, perhaps people could go onto...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence: Artificial Intelligence in the Public Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: That would be excellent. It is something the public see value for money in a lot of the time. Obviously, it depends on who perceives what as valuable, but a public-facing service would be very beneficial. I am conscious of the time. The Department of enterprise announced that the national AI office will be established, something I have been advocating for quite some time. Has the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence: Artificial Intelligence in the Public Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2025)

Naoise Ó Cearúil: Has that Department discussed a regulatory sandbox as part of the national AI office with Mr. Lowry, and whether it or the Department of public expenditure will have responsibility for it?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence: Artificial Intelligence in the Public Sector: Discussion (14 Oct 2025)

Financial Resolutions 2025 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (9 Oct 2025)
