Seanad: Direct Provision: Statements (4 Oct 2017)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: For the past six years, when Fianna Fáil has been asked to condemn the direct provision system, it has not done so. I would like to be constructive because we need to work together to get this system scrapped and I welcome the change in tone. An injustice has been done to Mr. Justice McMahon. The terms of reference for his report were limited. They precluded an examination to...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Estimates For Public Services 2017: Vote 33 - Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs (4 Oct 2017)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Tá brón orm nach raibh mé i láthair do thús na díospóireachta ach bhí mé sa Seanad. Ag leanacht leis na ceisteanna a bhí ag an Seanadóir Warfield maidir le Gaillimh, luaigh an tAire féin an bhliain cultúrtha 2020 atá ar bun i nGaillimh. Tá roinnt ceisteanna ardaithe agamsa maidir leis seo. An mbeadh an tAire in ann...

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Bhí fadhb leis an reachtaíocht reatha. Mar shampla, ní raibh an tArd-Mhúsaem fiú ag cur an reachtaíocht i bhfeidhm. Mar Aire Gaeltachta, an bhfuil an tAire Stáit sásta go bhfuil gach eagraíocht faoina chúram ag cur Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla i bhfeidhm mar is ceart?

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I gcead don Aire Stáit, fiú má tá reachtaíocht nua ag teacht ní chiallaíonn sé sin gur féidir leis neamhshuim a dhéanamh den reachtaíocht atá ann i láthair na huaire.

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Sílim go raibh beagán mí-thuiscint ansin ó thaobh cuid de na ceisteanna a chur mé. As part of the funding the Minister guaranteed for the Galway 2020 bid, she will have looked at the other funding sources. Is she confident at this stage that the other funding sources will be in place for 2020? My understanding is the European Union has no big pot of gold to fund...

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I welcome the clarification on the arts officers. I do not believe all local authorities have full-time arts officers; many of them were seconded to other duties. Perhaps the officials might come back to me on that. I take the Minister's point on the Abbey Theatre. I would not expect any Minister to dictate the types of plays or artistic endeavours any organisation would undertake....

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Mar eolas don Chathaoirleach, tá brú ama orm agus beidh orm imeacht faoi cheann deich nóiméad nó mar sin. Tá brón orm faoi sin roimh ré. Tá cúpla ceist tapa agam ar an mír seo. Tá siad paróisteach ar bhealach amháin. Tá cainteanna fós ar siúl idir an Roinn agus Comhairle Contae na Gaillimhe faoi na...

Seanad: Order of Business (10 Oct 2017)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Cuirim fáilte ar ais roimh an gCeannaire. Tá súil agam gur éirigh go maith leis ar an turas a bhí á dhéanamh aige ar son na Parlaiminte. I welcome the Leader back. I hope the parliamentary group he travelled with was a success. It is important that such trips happen. It is important to note that a momentous meeting of the Catalan Parliament is taking...
