Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: National Monuments (20 Oct 2016)

Peadar Tóibín: I understand the Government and the State own the buildings at 14, 15, 16 and 17 Moore Street. Yet, a company called CCJV is operating on the site. I got a chance to examine the management flowchart for that site. It sets out exactly where responsibility lies and who people report to. It is clear that the Government is in one place and CCJV is in another, with the other organisations...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: National Monuments (20 Oct 2016)

Peadar Tóibín: The Moore Street battlefield site is the most important such site in contemporary Irish history. In many ways, it represents the collision of two Irelands, the Celtic tiger developer Ireland and the selfless sacrifice of the Volunteers of 1916, colliding in one space. It has been a long-running sore. I am very concerned about the role of CCJV because I understand it is an associate company...

Other Questions: National Spatial Strategy (20 Oct 2016)

Peadar Tóibín: This State is in a state of spatial crisis. Services are being closed down on the western side of our country and rebuilt on the eastern seaboard. There is an overconcentration of economic activity and limited resources in a small space on the east coast, which is depopulating much of the west coast and causing bottlenecks in infrastructure on the east coast. What will the Minister do,...

Other Questions: National Spatial Strategy (20 Oct 2016)

Peadar Tóibín: I suppose when this Department was created there was a hope that it would be for real, that regional development and rural affairs would be taken seriously by this Department. It is clear this Department is a hollow husk, that in the end of the day the Department is almost an elaborate press statement to pretend to the people that the Government is doing something on this issue. For...

Other Questions: National Spatial Strategy (20 Oct 2016)

Peadar Tóibín: My heart goes out to the Minister to a certain extent. If Deputy Humphreys does not have the budget to deal with these issues, unfortunately, all the joined-up thinking in the world is not worth a damn.
