Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: North-South Interconnector (7 Apr 2022)

Darren O'Rourke: I want to come in on that point. We should never have ended up here, and that is my firm opinion. A central tenet of EirGrid’s current plan is community engagement and the Minister points towards learning the lessons of the past. We can see it in Grid West, on which there was huge confrontation and resistance, and that is going underground for the Connacht project. This is a matter...

Nothing in the current provision would...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Retrofitting Schemes: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (11 Oct 2022)

...of energy efficient obligation scheme in the first instance. The key part of that is an obligation that is put on energy providers to help their customers to reduce their energy use. The key tenets of the scheme are that they have moved from shallower measures to deeper measures, so they now have to have a minimum of 100 kWh uplift. That is the crux of the issue, that the energy partner...

Mary Lou McDonald: Hold on. Where agreement could not be reached, he would swoop in to legislate. He has given us a tutorial in his perspective of industrial relations, how they work and their basic tenets. One of the fundamentals of the relationship between the State and its workforce is that it is voluntarist and has not traditionally utilised legislation in this way. That was a significant shift. We...

Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth: Oberstown Children’s Detention Campus: Chairperson-Designate (23 May 2023)

Ms Koulla Yiasouma: Yes. We need to consider that. Transitioning or preparing to leave is one of the core tenets of Oberstown's model of care. It is the "P" in CEHOP – care, education, health, offending behaviour and preparation for leaving. It all comes to nothing if the young people are not supported to return to their communities. A great deal of work in education, the...

Public Accounts Committee: 2018 Financial Statements of the Charities Regulatory Authority (21 Nov 2019)

Mr. Eamon O'Halloran: It is not a registered charity. With regard to process, where a body applies to us on top of its constitution, we look for a document that sets out its principles, tenets and faith to understand what it does in terms of worship, for example, where it holds worship. We look for a lot more information from an organisation that sets itself out for the advancement of...

...places too great a burden on various bodies in the public service when it comes to publishing details of those who have particular responsibilities.

Seanad: Order of Business (Resumed). (21 Jun 2006)

Mary O'Rourke: ...and consistent in his condemnation of what he sees as Israeli atrocities. The HSE was also referred to and I see nothing wrong in seeking value for money, it is both an old-fashioned and a modern tenet. Shoppers seek value for money every week. I am glad to tell the House that the tender for Longford-Westmeath General Hospital is going out today. It will be back in four weeks and the work...

Community Pharmacy Services (22 Jun 2010)

James Reilly: What role does the Minister see for community pharmacists? Does she agree with the basic tenet that I and Fine Gael have been promoting through our fair care policy, which is that patients should be treated at the lowest level of complexity that is safe, timely and efficient? We are not using the full scope of the primary care team. There are 800 pharmacists trained in the administration of...

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Judicial Appointments (1 Feb 2017)

David Stanton: The scheme of the new Bill takes full account of the essential constitutional tenet that the appointment of judges is a decision of the Government in the exercise of its executive role, albeit that the actual appointment is undertaken by the President on the advice of the Government. I am aware that the judicial appointments review committee, which is a committee of senior judges, submitted...
