Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community: Irish Travellers’ Access to Justice Report: Discussion (3 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am not only speaking about Traveller community complaints. I am speaking about people from various socioeconomic groups making complaints. Most people will make a social welfare appeal and the system is fairly clear cut. They might not be happy with the outcome but they will do it. There are other types of complaints where people feel the process is tortuous. Therefore, the issue of a...

Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community: Irish Travellers’ Access to Justice Report: Discussion (3 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: How would that set of figures compare with figures for people living in highly disadvantaged areas who are not Travellers? Generally in rural Ireland, there is respect and interaction, or there used to be when gardaí were in the community because people knew the gardaí who lived there. They were part of the community and attended community events. More modern policing is removing...

Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community: Irish Travellers’ Access to Justice Report: Discussion (3 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: We know that six parishes in Dublin provide a totally disproportionate number of the prison population in Dublin. They cannot all be Travellers. Class is a broad brush. I am more interested in getting the data broken down by postal address as that might give a slightly different result. I am curious to learn what the difference is.

Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community: Irish Travellers’ Access to Justice Report: Discussion (3 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I would like to find out whether, in the same housing estates, the non-Traveller population experiences half that level, one third of it or whatever, or if there is a slight difference with the rest of the community. I have lived in different communities in my life. I deal with people from all sorts of communities and I see different attitudes not so much driven by so-called social class...

Éamon Ó Cuív: The witnesses were able to give me the data by social class. When that data was being collected, did it indicate where those social classes were?

Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community: Irish Travellers’ Access to Justice Report: Discussion (3 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am thinking that if they had area clusters, we would get a lot more information. We know from the old days when we were using Trutz Haase to designate RAPID areas that-----

Éamon Ó Cuív: Are there no further questions, I thank Dr. Sindy Joyce, Dr. David Joyce, Professor Hayes and Professor Schweppe for their contributions. We may only have a few weeks left of the Dáil. We are looking to put forward quick, simple recommendations because we need change. At the end of the day, while we can go all over the place, the one place where we can actually effect change is by...

Éamon Ó Cuív: I welcome everyone to the twenty-eighth meeting of the Joint Committee on Key Issues Affecting the Traveller Community. We have apologies from the Cathaoirleach, Senator Eileen Flynn - it is for that reason that I am chairing the meeting - and Senator Joe O'Reilly. I would like to remind members that they must be physically present within Leinster House to take part in the public meetings...

Financial Resolutions 2024 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (3 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Gabhaim buíochas. Ar ndóigh, níor airigh mé na blianta ag imeacht. Is í seo an uair dheireanach a bheidh deis agam cúpla focal a rá maidir leis an gcáinaisnéis. Beidh 32 bliain caite agam sa Teach seo sa chéad mhí eile. Tá mé ag ceapadh gurb é seo an 32ú cáinaisnéis a chonaic mé. Ar ndóigh,...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá ceist agam. Tá a fhios againn go n-oibríonn rudaí ar nós an fhoráil sa dlí ó thaobh comharthaíochta de. Tá sé níos infheidhmithe ar go leor cúiseanna; mar shampla, tá sé sofheicthe muna bhfuil an rud ann. I gcás na fógraíochta, táthar in ann é a chloisteáil agus sin é. Ba...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Is í an Roinn a ghlac leis na scéimeanna sin. Is é an smaoineamh a bhí ann ná nach nglacfadh sí leo. Is í an fhadhb a bhí ann ná nárbh é sin a bhí i gceist nuair a tugadh isteach na scéimeanna. Bhí sé i gceist go mbeadh oifigigh teanga, oifigigh thithíochta agus oifigigh eile sna ceantair in ann feidhmiú...

Éamon Ó Cuív: An aontaíonn an coimisinéir go bhfuil, ag deireadh an lae, cumhacht áirithe ag an Stát - b’fhéidir nach raibh aige 40 ó shin - rudaí casta a dhéanamh? Mar shampla, tá mé tar éis, le trí nó ceithre de bhlianta anuas, go leor ceisteanna a chur maidir leis an earnáil tríú-leibhéal. Deirtear go minic go...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Caithfidh mé a rá gur amhrasóir mé ina thaobh seo. Abraimis go bhfuil 2% den tseirbhís phoiblí atá in ann feidhmiú sa Ghaeilge. Bheadh éacht dochreidte bainte amach dá bhféadfaí é sin a mhéadú go 4% trí oiliúint a chur ar dhaoine atá sa tseirbhís phoiblí cheana féin. Dar liomsa, má...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Nuair a fhaigheann Oifig an Choimisnéara Teanga gearán agus glactar leis go bhfuil bunús leis an ngearán, agus ansin téann an coimisinéir go dtí an gcomhlacht poiblí atá i gceist, i gcé mhéad cás a n-adhmaíonn an chomhlacht go bhfuil an rud mícheart a tarlú agus cuireann siad ina ceart é gan troid mhór a chur...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ceapaim go mbeidh freagra ag Órla de Búrca ar mo cheist dheireanach. An bhfuil laghdú nó méadú ar líon na gcomharthaí a ndéantar drochleagan Gaeilge a chur suas orthu? Tá mé ag smaoineamh ar chomharthaí a dhéantar aistriú díreach orthu, nó seafóid nó ráiméis éigin eile orthu, mar shampla...
