Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Na Seirbhísí Uisce agus Séarachais a chuireann Uisce Éireann ar fáil i gceantair Ghaeltachta: Plé. (21 Jun 2023)

Mairéad Farrell: Tá sé sin suimiúil agus tá a fhios agam go bhfuil deacrachtaí ar leith mar gheall gur oileán amach ón gcósta é. Baineann an dara ceist atá agam leis na deacrachtaí atá ar Inis Oírr thar oíche mar nach bhfuil daoine in ann uisce a úsáid, agus mar sin de. Tá a fhios againn gach uile bhliain go dtiocfaidh na...

Mairéad Farrell: Tá sé sin iontach. An bhfuil a fhios ag Des Joyce cé chomh fada is a thógfaidh sé sin?

Ar bhreathnaigh Uisce Éireann riamh ar thíortha eile a bhfuil na deacrachtaí céanna acu agus...

Mairéad Farrell: Tá sé suimiúil is dócha. Níor smaoinigh mé ar an Astráil ach ar ndóigh tá an tír chomh mór sin agus tá oileáin amuigh ansin freisin. Tá sé sách suimiúil. Baineann an cheist eile atá agam leis an fhadhb a bhí ar Inis Bó Finne anuraidh leis an mangainéis. An é sin a bhí i...

Mairéad Farrell: De bharr go raibh sé tirim le fada, an bhfeiceann na finnéithe an tionchar cheana féin ar na hoileáin agus mar sin de? Níl mé ag iarraidh an tír ina iomláine a rá mar tá sé sin iomarcach mar cheist ach an gceapann siad go mbeadh impleachtaí aige sin ar mhangainéis, mar shampla?

Mairéad Farrell: Ní raibh mo chomhghleacaí an Teachta Ó Dochartaigh in ann teacht chuig an gcruinniú inniu, ach d'iarr sé orm trí cheist maidir le Dún na nGall a ardú ar fhaitíos go bhfuil na finnéithe á gceistiú féin cén fáth go bhfuilim chomh buartha sin faoi. Tá trí cheist ann. Tá na huimhreacha tagartha agam ach...

Mairéad Farrell: An dara cheist ná go bhfuil fear Gaeltachta atá 91 bliain d'aois tar éis fógra dlí a fháil ag bagairt an dlí a chur air toisc nár íoc sé bille €70 a fuair sé tamaillín ó shin. Níor thuig sé cad lenar bhain an bille, áfach, toisc nach n-úsáideann sé, agus níor úsáid riamh, an...

Mairéad Farrell: Labhraíonn siad Gaeilge dhifriúil agus nílim cinnte faoi na bhfocail. An bealach atá sé scríofa anseo ná go bhfuil caora laistigh de bhalla mórthimpeall ar fhoinse uisce sa Doire Beag. An bhfuil iniúchadh déanta ag Uisce Éireann go fóill agus an bhfuil réiteach aige ar an gceist? Seo rud éigin atá thuas sna Doire...

Select Committee on Education and Skills: Construction Safety Licensing Bill 2023: Committee Stage (27 Jun 2023)

Mairéad Farrell: Could the Minister of State speak to amendments Nos. 178 to 182, inclusive? I am coming to this Bill in the middle of our consideration of it, which makes it a little more confusing and, therefore, I wonder whether he could give the little blurb on the amendments.

Select Committee on Education and Skills: Construction Safety Licensing Bill 2023: Committee Stage (27 Jun 2023)

Mairéad Farrell: I will speak to this amendment as well and the Minister of State might correct me if I am wrong. I understand it is to assist the licensing authority in recognising the contributions of those who have come from abroad, which is obviously welcome and needed.
