- Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Pleanáil Teanga Lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Ceart go leor. Is dócha gurb í seo an cheist dheireanach do mhuintir Ghael-Taca. Tá Gael-Taca beagáinín éagsúil. Níl sé iomlán éagsúil. Tá Gaillimh le Gaeilge agus eagraíocht amháin eile a fhaigheann a gcuid maoinithe díreach ón Roinn seachas trí Fhoras na Gaeilge de bharr na staire atá ann....
- Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Pleanáil Teanga Lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Ó thaobh Ghael-Taca, tá an plean an chuimsitheach: 154 leathanach. Tá sé an suntasach. Is dóigh liom gur cóir tacú leis. Nílim ar an gcoiste ach mholfainn don choiste b'fhéidir scríobh chuig an Aire go foirmeálta agus soiléiriú a lorg maidir le cad go díreach atá i gceist ó thaobh na constaice agus na...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Our Rural Future and Town Centre First Policies: Discussion (1 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I thank the witnesses. It is an interesting topic and it falls across two Departments. One of the interesting aspects is that the very real challenges we face in rural communities and small towns are not unique to Ireland. Urbanisation is a challenge that most developed countries face. There are perhaps factors that are unique to Ireland. In continental Europe it is maybe based much more...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Our Rural Future and Town Centre First Policies: Discussion (1 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I will have to go soon as I will be speaking in a debate in the Dáil Chamber but I would like to make a few brief observations. There are lots of things that could be done in Passage West but the key to opening it all up is the docklands site. It is huge and is right in the middle of what is a very narrow town. Retail is something to be cautious about in the sense that we have seen...

- Affordable Housing: Motion [Private Members] (8 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: When I listen to the Minister, I usually try to figure out which parts of what he says he believes and which parts he does not. It is not always that easy, but I am sure there is a great deal he does not believe. He speaks of hypocrisy, but he knows perfectly well that the objections made by Sinn Féin representatives were made on the basis of affordability. Yes, there should be...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Disability Services (8 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Education is about ensuring that every child can reach his or her greatest potential and thrive. Obviously, that means a great deal of different things to individual children and families. For children in special schools and children in places like St. Killian's Special School, which is a remarkable place, therapies are absolutely crucial to ensuring that those children can reach their...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Disability Services (8 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I will quote from the response the Minister of State gave. He stated, "I know that my colleague the Minister of State with responsibility for disability services, Deputy Rabbitte, is fully committed to the continued development and enhancement of our children’s disability services through the implementation of the progressing disability services", and it carried on like that. I then...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Island Communities (9 May 2024)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I had a question disallowed in regard to planning for Gaeltacht islands within the policy. The document, which has several strengths, is weak in terms of planning for the Gaeltacht Islands. The response I received when the question was ruled out of order is that this is the responsibility of the Minister with responsibility for the Gaeltacht, Deputy Catherine Martin. The Minister with...
