Seanad: An tOrd Gnó (Atógáil) - Order of Business (Resumed) (21 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: I take this opportunity to congratulate Pico Lopes, who is originally from Crumlin. He plays centre back for Shamrock Rovers in the League of Ireland, has played in the League of Ireland for a long number of years and, due to his father's patronage, is now playing for Cape Verde and will go to the World Cup, which we learned last week. It is an amazing opportunity. He is quoted in the...

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Gabhaim buíochas leis na finnéithe ar fad as teacht isteach. Is dóigh liom go bhfuil téama ag tosú sa chruinniú seo mar teastaíonn uaim ceist na ndíolúintí a ardú freisin. Tá líon na ndíolúintí ag ardú. Tá sprioc againn agus ag na Ranna i leith seirbhísí a chur ar fáil trí...

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Aontaím leis an Teachta Ó Muirí. Is dóigh liom go bhfuil rud éigin ag titim. Tá rud éigin mícheart leis an gcóras. Luaigh Mark Bohan go bhfuil sé de dhualgas ar fhoireann bainistíochta na scoile déileáil leis na díolúintí, idir iad a chur ar fáil nó a shéanadh. Is dóigh liom go bhfuil na...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish-Speaking Community: Earcaíocht sa tSeirbhís Phoiblí: Plé (Atógáil) (21 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Ó thaobh comhthéacs de le Synge Street agus a bheith ag caint leis na tuismitheoirí agus leis an bhfoireann, níl an-chuid daoine ansin sásta. Tá mise i mo chónaí sa cheantar sin agus tá an-chuid daoine ansin nach bhfuil i bpobal na Gaeilge labhartha. Tá siad míshásta.

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Tá sé deacair a rá go n-oibríonn sé. Tá sé deacair a rá go bhfuil sé chomh simplí sin.

Committee on Drugs Use: Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion (16 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Thanks very much. I am sorry I was late but I was actually listening in remotely so I heard the opening statements. I will start by picking up on what Dr. O'Shea just said about PTSD and other traumas that are treatable. He also mentioned CBT in his opening statement and I spoke to Mr. Tom Conlon, a psychotherapist in Cork, about CBT recently. I understand it can be used to effectively...

Committee on Drugs Use: Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion (16 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Dr. O'Shea makes a great evidence-based case for the ability to recover from trauma and for trauma to be treated How much more challenging is it in the case of a dual diagnosis, where an individual is obviously self-medicating and that is where the addiction begins in the first place? When individuals are gone beyond initial treatment, how difficult is it for medical professionals to treat...

Committee on Drugs Use: Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion (16 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: The question then is how widespread that service is and how easy it is to access. It is very difficult to get access to a dual diagnosis treatment plan. Am I right about that?

Committee on Drugs Use: Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion (16 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: The point Dr. O'Reilly makes about seven centres and five of them being in Dublin demonstrates this is not an urban problem but a problem occurring everywhere. There was a conversation around public health and public health nurses. I spoke to a public health nurse recently who is dealing with many of these challenges on an ad hoc basis. There is no service in this particular town. This...

Committee on Drugs Use: Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion (16 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: There is no reason for it. We have gamblers who are dealing with all sorts of trauma. It is definitely something to be explored.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó – Order of Business (15 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: I echo a couple of things before I get started. The first is about Ann Woodlock. Ann is from Drimnagh. I know her well. I see her every Saturday doing the park run. She is the best of us and she beats the best of us every single Saturday. Congratulations to her on her gold medal at the weekend and the best of luck this weekend in her next event. I also echo Senator Nelson Murray's...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport: Integration of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association and the Camogie Association with the GAA: Gaelic Players Association (15 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: I thank all the witnesses for coming in today. We have been looking forward to having them in. It is fair to say that they are preaching to the converted at this committee. Everybody gets the challenges but it is really important that we point out the opportunity today as well because this is a blank sheet of paper to design Gaelic games in a way that they could not have been designed when...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport: Integration of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association and the Camogie Association with the GAA: Gaelic Players Association (15 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Brilliant. At that meeting was it a case of presenting research or ideas? What was the nature of the meeting?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport: Integration of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association and the Camogie Association with the GAA: Gaelic Players Association (15 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: That is great. It leads onto my next question. Mr. Parsons mentioned the athlete's voice and how important it is. I have called for an athlete representative to be on every single board of every single NGB, not just in the GAA. The player's voice is under-represented at governance level. It is very important and I will be following up on it with the various NGBs. Mr. Parsons is one of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport: Integration of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association and the Camogie Association with the GAA: Gaelic Players Association (15 Oct 2025)

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: I am conscious that Mr. Meyler and Dr. Lane have literally written the book on this - or they are writing the book and doing the PhD study on integration in Gaelic games. Could I ask them about the detail at county board level? We get the big headline stuff around finances, facilities and funding, but when we look at every single club feeding into a county board and the split of three...

Evanne Ní Chuilinn: Was it in the update from the steering group a few years ago? Do Mr. Parsons or Ms Begley know? No. I refer to the county board stuff.
