Seanad: Schools Building Projects (29 Mar 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: The reply appears to contradict a reply I received last week regarding Clifden community school, in which I was told the reason the school was not getting funding was a drop in the demographic. There is a demographic increase in the Cnoc na Cathrach area. The Minister of State said as much in his reply, so the decision does not make much sense. To build the extension to Gaelscoil Mhic...

Seanad: Order of Business (18 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Is dóigh gur ceart dom, tar éis an méid atá ráite ag mo chomhleacaí an Seanadóir Ó Maoláin, iarratas a dhéanamh go dtabharfaí cuireadh don Chéad Aire agus don Leas-Chéad Aire sa Tuaisceart teacht ar chuairt anseo, mar is léir fós go bhfuil go leor míthuisceana ann maidir leis an chaoi a bhfuil an stát á riaradh thuas ansin. As part of the programme of bringing guest...

Seanad: Garda Deployment (18 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Go raibh míle maith agat. Cuirim céad fáilte roimh an Aire agus tá áthas orm go bhfuil sé liom anseo. Is iontach an rud an tAire sinsearach a fháil le freagra a thabhairt ar cheisteanna. Ceist réasúnta, simplí í seo maidir le cúrsaí póilíneachta agus gardaí sna ceantair Gaeltachta. Táim ag iarraidh a fháil amach líon na ngardaí atá ag feidhmiú sna stáisiúin garda...

Seanad: Garda Deployment (18 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as ucht an freagra ata tugtha aige. Ní cosúil go bhfuil an tábla a luaigh sé leis an bhfreagra. The table mentioned by the Minister is not with the answer but I am sure it can be forwarded in due course. I certainly welcome the Minister's response and I commend the Garda Síochána as I know from my dealings with it that it makes a huge effort with regard...

Seanad: Order of Business (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I dtosach báire, ba mhaith liom comhghairdeas a dhéanamh le Steve Ó Cualáin atá ceaptha ón Aoine seo caite mar phríomh fheidhmeannach ar Údarás na Gaeltachta. Táimid píosa fada ag fanacht le príomh fheidhmeannach ar an eagraíocht sin agus is maith ann é. Déanfaidh sé an-difríocht don údarás go bhfuil príomh fheidhmeannach aige anois atá ag díriú go huile agus go...

Seanad: Order of Business (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: -----under the auspices of Mylan Bioniche. It backs up an argument I have been making for a long time that Údarás na Gaeltachta must be supported fully to ensure it can create jobs in the Gaeltacht because some people would have said that jobs at the higher end of the spectrum such as these would have been difficult to provide in a rural area as has been done. I congratulate all involved...

Seanad: Order of Business (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I will second it because it is a farce that this debate is going ahead and that the goalposts keep changing in terms of the fiscal treaty.

Seanad: Order of Business (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: That is exactly what we are doing - putting the country first.

Seanad: Thirtieth Amendment of the Constitution (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union) Bill 2012: Second Stage (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: The Senator is waffling because he cannot explain why he is supporting it. Perhaps he should try to tell us why Fianna Fáil is supporting it.

Seanad: Thirtieth Amendment of the Constitution (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union) Bill 2012: Second Stage (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: On a point of order, I ask for that statement to be struck out because it is out of order.

Seanad: Thirtieth Amendment of the Constitution (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union) Bill 2012: Second Stage (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I ask the Chair to rule. In my view that statement was out of kilter with the previous tone of the debate and the Senator is really lowering the tone with his contribution.

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I am no longer a member and I do not see what that has to do with it. I ask the Chair to rule on the point of order.

Seanad: Thirtieth Amendment of the Constitution (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union) Bill 2012: Second Stage (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Tá mé tar éis éisteacht go cúramach ar feadh dhá uair go leith le díospóireacht ar son an reifrinn, agus fáiltím roimh an chúig nóiméad atá agam le labhairt ina choinne. Deineadh cuid mhaith cainte ar thírghrá agus mar sin de. Tá mé chun a bheith an-soiléir ó thaobh pholasaí Shinn Féin de, mar sin bíodh Seanadóirí ag éisteacht. Dúirt cuid acu nár chuala siad na...
