Order of Business. (13 Apr 2005)

Trevor Sargent: I was seeking to have it taken more urgently than this session because that could mean, as it has in the past, that it will not be published.

Order of Business. (14 Apr 2005)

Irish Language. (14 Apr 2005)

Trevor Sargent: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as an bhfreagra. Aontaím leis an chuspóir an Ghaeilge a láidriú. Tá codarsnacht ann, áfach, idir an tacaíocht a thabhairt do na Gaeltachtaí le Gaeilge a neartú agus an brú a chuirtear orthu le sprioc dátaí.

Road Signage. (14 Apr 2005)

Trevor Sargent: Tá an cheist seo dírithe ar chostas na bhfógraí nua agus dúirt an tAire nach bhfuil mórán acu le crochadh. Feicfimid cad a déarfaidh na comhairlí condae faoi sin.

Road Signage. (14 Apr 2005)

Trevor Sargent: Tuigim go maith go bhfuil an socrú sin ann, agus tuigimid uilig sa Teach seo é, ach tá ceist agam mar gheall ar an tréimhse ghearr-théarmach. Nuair a bhí, mar shampla, an t-athrú ann ón bpunt go dtí an euro, bhí áireamháin, pinn luaidhe, fógraí, bileoga agus neart eolais ar an teilifis agus an raidió mar gheall air.
