Joe Higgins: Níl an Taoiseach ag freagairt na ceiste.

Order of Business (7 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: Ba mhaith liom tacú leis sin. Ceist thromchúiseach atá ann do na daoine atá ag fulaingt i láthair na huaire faoi pholasaithe déine atá á gcur i bhfeidhm. Dá bhrí sin, ba cheart go mbeadh a dhóthain ama agus tá sé náireach go bhfuil an Rialtas fós ag úsáid, ar feadh bliana anois, an guillotine seo a chuir siad ina aghaidh chomh mór sin nuair a bhí Fine Gael agus Páirtí...

Order of Business (7 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: Maidir le reachtaíocht atá geallta, tá ceist agam faoi dhá Bhille, agus creid nó ná creid níl aon Ghaoluinn curtha orthu fós. Is iad an Treaty Establishing the European Stability Mechanism agus an European Communities Act 1972 (Amendment) Bill. An bhfuil siad siúd réidh? Cathain a bheidh siad ag teacht os comhair na Dála? Nach bhfuil sé fíor go gcaithfidh siad siúd a bheith...

Order of Business (7 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: An gcaithfidh an Bille dul tríd an Dáil sula rachaidh an reifreann ar aghaidh? An bhfuil sé sin fíor?

Lá na Gaeilge: Statements (7 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: Is breá an rud é a bheith in ann gnó a dhéanamh tré Ghaoluinn annso, ach caithfidh mé a rá leis an Taoiseach nach bhfuil na struchtúir dáiríre faoi dhíospóireacht na maidne. Ag féachaint mórthimpeall annso tá 11 suíochán annso le m'ais agus cluasáin i dhá nó trí chinn. Táim ag féachaint mórthimpeall an Tí agus feicim nach bhfuil cluasáin ins an chuid is mó des...

Lá na Gaeilge: Statements (7 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: Más rud é go bhfuilimid dairíre faoi, ní ceart go mbéadh an lá seo mar cur i gcéill. Ba cheart go mbéadh an lá seo dáiríre.

Lá na Gaeilge: Statements (7 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: Nuair a labhraím, nó nuair a labhraíonn aon Teachta tá an ceart aige nó aici go dtuigfeadh gach éinne eile an méid atá á rá. Is luachmhar d'aon tír agus d'aon phobal a theanga dhúchais. Tá dhá theanga dhúchais sa tír seo, an Ghaoluinn agus an Béarla. An Ghaoluinn an ceann a théann níos faide siar agus a bhfuil stair, seanchas, litríocht, ceol agus amhráin ag baint léi,...

Leaders' Questions (13 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: I refer to the Sunday Independent of last Sunday. In case the Taoiseach does not know, his Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Varadkar, will tell him it is not a left-leaning or socialist news-sheet. In a thorough survey the Sunday Independent found that the 300 super-richest people in this country increased their wealth between March last year and March this year, from an...

Joe Higgins: -----which is an increase of €5 billion. That year coincides exactly with the lifetime of this Government. In this impressive survey, I have to say, Nick Webb, the business editor, points out that the rich list total nearly matches-----

Leaders' Questions (13 Mar 2012)

Joe Higgins: -----our bailout. He further mentions new yachts, magnificent palaces in the sun, stupendous art works, football clubs and concludes that it was a good year for the super-rich. However, it was not a good year for people with a disability because the Taoiseach maintained the cuts in the pensions for the blind, he cut the fuel allowance for elderly people and he attacked the precarious...
