Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Tuigim é sin. Chun am a spáráil, tá sé léite agam. Baineann mo cheist le briseadh síos na n-iarratas.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Níl iarratas amháin ó aon cheantar Gaeltachta. Níl. Tiocfaidh mé ar ais go dtí sin i gceann nóiméid. Cad a chiallaíonn DPI? An é sin i nGaeilge nó i mBéarla? Ní thuigim DPI. Tá an téarma ar leathanach 5.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Tá an DPI i gceist agus tá sruth airgid i gceist. Tá súil agam go n-inseoidh na finnéithe dom má tá mé mícheart ach, de réir mar a thuigim, tá sruth airgid ón Rialtas i gceist faoin scéim seo do DPI. Baineann sé sin le líon na n-eastát atá ann ó na 1990idí agus ó 2000 ar aghaidh nach bhfuil...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Cé mhéad airgead atá i gceist? Cad é líon na n-eastát atá i gceist? Cé mhéad de na heastáit sin atá lonnaithe i gceantair Ghaeltachta?

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Tá sé sin cabhrach. Tugann sé léargas dúinn. Cé mhéad de na tithe nó na heastáit sin atá lonnaithe i gceantair Ghaeltachta? Cad atá i gceist faoi láthair? Cén sórt córais atá i gceist faoi láthair fad atáthar ag fanacht ar an réiteach ceart?

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Cén sórt córais atá i gceist faoi láthair? De réir an méid atá léite agam, ag an am, ba réiteach eatramhach a bhí i gceist. Ní raibh sé i gceist go mbeadh an réiteach seo buan. Is dóigh nach réiteach cuí beag nó mór a bhí i gceist. Cad atá á dhéanamh fad atáthar ag...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Iarraim go dtabharfaí briseadh síos dúinn ní tar éis an chruinnithe ach chomh sciobtha agus is féidir. Ritheann sé liom go bhfuil cuid den chóras sa Dáil ag rá gur chóir dúinn fáil réidh le cúrsaí pleanála agus rudaí a bhrostú suas. Ag féachaint ar an méid a rinneadh sna 1990idí...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Is mó eolas atá ag an Roinn. De réir an méid atá agam, rinne an Roinn athbhreithniú in 2021 agus bhí grúpa athbhreithnithe, grúpa oibre, bunaithe. Cuirtear na rudaí atá tábhachtach san áireamh, mar shampla, riachtanais tithíochta, riachtanais sláinte an duine agus an comhshaol, inmharthanacht airgeadais and so on but...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Tá easpa muiníne ag Fintan Towey as ár gcumas rudaí a léamh. Ná bí buartha; déanaimid ár ndícheall. Bheadh sé an-chabhrach an tuarascáil a léamh. Bheadh sé an-chabhrach chomh maith briseadh síos a bheith againn. Tá 547 sráidbhaile nó lonnaíocht luaite san anailís agus tá sé...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Is féidir liom an t-eolas sin a léamh. Is é an rud atá á rá agam ná go bhfuil easpa infreastruchtúir riachtanach sna Gaeltachtaí ar fud na tíre. Is í an Ghaeltacht is mó a bhfuil á lua agamsa mar tá an easpa chomh mór sin. Tá impleachtaí ann don teanga ó thaobh daoine a bheith in ann saol nó...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Riachtanais Bailithe agus Cóireála Fuíolluisce sa Ghaeltacht: Plé (22 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Tá mo dhóthain ráite agam. Níl sé sin sásúil. Is é seo an comhchoiste Gaeilge agus táimid ag díriú ar an nGaeilge. Chuireamar Bille chun tosaigh, atá achtaithe anois, maidir leis na dualgais atá ar áisíneachtaí faoi leith agus ar Ranna ó thaobh na Gaeilge de. Más é sin an freagra, sin é an...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: The Tánaiste can come back in.

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: 33. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence further to Parliamentary Question No. 61 of 2 February 2023, when the final report of the independent review to examine the effectiveness of the policies, systems and procedures in place for dealing with bullying, harassment, discrimination, sexual harassment and sexual assault in the Defence Forces, will be published; and if he will make a...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: We want a date for the publication of the report. The Tánaiste has it and it is in to the second month. What is the delay and why will the report not be published? All of this arose with regard to the documentary by Katie Hannon, back in September 2021. I will not waste my time, or use my time rather than waste it, to praise the Women of Honour. They have set out what needs to be...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: The culture of dignity and respect did not exist, clearly, from the reports and stories told and the histories told by the Women of Honour. From the beginning they wanted a full, independent statutory inquiry. They got a review. They were never happy with that but struggled and did their best to co-operate with it. Let us put that aside now. Here we are. Trust is of the essence. I echo...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: I would like to say something regarding substitutions generally. In fairness to Deputies who are here waiting, there is a system. Sometimes it is not perfect. I have the list of substitutions here and it does not encompass the last question. Chairpersons make decisions; I am not undoing that. I am making a general point because it is hard to be consistent when Deputies approach the...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: The clock is running.

Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Second Stage (Resumed) (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: Deputy Pringle was in possession.

Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Second Stage (Resumed) (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: I very much welcome this Bill. It is hugely significant legislation and one of the longest Bills that has come before us. Yesterday, we were dealing with one of the shortest Bills to come before us, which was to get rid of charges in hospital. This one has 268 pages, ten Parts, 293 sections and seven Schedules. The explanatory memorandum alone is 58 pages long. I welcome the Bill and...

Safe Staffing Levels in Hospitals: Statements (23 Mar 2023)

Catherine Connolly: No, and this may be one of the rare occasions when the Cathaoirleach Gníomhach has a problem keeping me to time because I have just listened to Deputy Durkan and, while I have great respect for him, I do not have respect for what he has just articulated over his nine minutes in this Dáil. It is both dangerous and disingenuous to say that Opposition Deputies are the cause of the low...
