Toghcháin Údarás na Gaeltachta. (29 Apr 2009)

Brian O'Shea: Tá an tAire ag rá go bhfuil cead aige an toghchán a chur siar go dtí deireadh na bliana seo chugainn. An bhfuil sé ar intinn aige an toghchán a chur siar chomh fada agus is féidir? An bhfuil cinneadh déanta ag an Rialtas maidir le teorannacha Gaeltachta agus an bhfuil sainmhíniú socraithe ar cad is Gaeltacht ann? An bhfuil aon rud ag tarlú? Sin an rud a chuireann isteach go mór...

Brian O'Shea: Tá an mhéar fhada i bhfeidhm arís, tá an Rialtas ag dul siar chomh fada agus is féidir leis an toghchán. Cad é díreach atá ag tarlú leis an straitéis? An bhfoilseofar é roimh sos an tsamhraidh? Cad faoi phlean gníomhach don Ghaeltacht? Tá gach dealramh ar an scéal nach bhfuil faic ag tarlú. Tá an tAire ag caint i gciorcal an chuid is mó den am agus níl a fhios ag...

Rural Social Scheme. (29 Apr 2009)

Brian O'Shea: It is interesting to hear that the Minister does not observe the sabbath.

Rural Social Scheme. (29 Apr 2009)

Brian O'Shea: Why should we be impressed by the communication to which the Minister alluded, when we do not know who the mystery person who sent it is? What exactly is happening here? Are statutory measures or legislation necessary to allow the Minister to bring this sort of amalgamation into effect? Is this something that will be done on the drip, by stealth? Will it have to be addressed in the new...

Irish Language. (29 Apr 2009)

Brian O'Shea: I find the outburst about expert opinion bizarre and extraordinary. I take no part of the blame for the Minister's dithering on the Irish language because on some occasion or occasions I have asked about expert opinion. The Fr. MacGréil report states that the biggest challenge facing the Irish language is to move from ability to speak the language to usage of the language and the gap...

An b'fhéadfadh an tAire insint dom an bhfuil aon tuarascáil eile le foilsiú sula críochnaíonn sé an obair seo? Tá mé ag éirí éadóchasach os rud é nach bhfuil aon rud fiúntach le feiceáil.
