Order of Business (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Yes, but the brief we got on the content of the Bill is very vague. On the week of St. Patrick's Day, a debate was promised on the Irish language. When will that debate take place?

Údarás na Gaeltachta (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ag éisteacht leis an Aire Stáit, is léir go bhfuil an dearcadh sórt pick and mix ag an Rialtas, go roghnófar rudaí áirithe as an straitéis 20 bliain agus go bhfágfar rudaí eile ar leataobh. An cheist atá agam ná an bhfagfar feidhmeanna fostaíochta agus fiontraíochta ag Údarás na Gaeltachta; deir an straitéis go soiléir go bhfágfar. Ón bhfreagra a thug an tAire Stáit,...

Údarás na Gaeltachta (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá ceist eile agam a thacaíonn leis an Aire Stáit. Bhí aimhreas ormsa i gcónaí faoi scéim labhairt na Gaeilge mar tá sé ró-dheireannach ag cúig nó sé bliana d'aois nós teanga teaghlaigh a athrú. D'fhág muid an scéim ann mar nach raibh socruithe cuí déanta le déanamh cinnte go bhféadfadh linn díriú ar na gasúir nuabheirthe. Go deimhin, bhí oifigeach de chuid na...

National Substance Misuse Strategy (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I noted what the Minister had to say about responsibility for the national drugs strategy transferring to the Department for Health and Children, which seems to infer the drugs problem is primarily a medical problem. It surely is a medical problem, but as we all know, much of it relates to the structures of communities. The reason it was placed in the Department of Community, Equality and...

Community Development (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I thank the Minister for her comprehensive reply. Would it be possible to get a breakdown of the spend in each company in the Leader programme between administration and activities such as grants sanctioned to third parties and the actual spend to date? Perhaps the Minister could organise for it to be sent to us. I am concerned that we have still approved only €102 million out of €425...

Community Development (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I set up an inquiry into the company and tabled a parliamentary question recently asking whether it was concluded. The answer stated it was ongoing. Is it possible to find out when it is intended to bring the inquiry to a conclusion?

Community Development (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I support the Deputy, who is dead right. We need a deadline. There is more than bipartisan support in regard to this matter. We need a deadline as to when, if it is not possible to change the Union's mind, we can proceed under Axis 1. We will not hear any dispute among rural Deputies in the House if that is the approach taken. The Minister will have our support. The matter requires...

Stráiteise 20 bliain don Ghaeilge (14 Apr 2011)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ba mhaith liom tréaslú leis an Aire Stáit as ucht a cheapadh mar Aire. Tá a fhios agam gur fear díograiseach, fear Gaeltachta agus gaeilgeoir dílis is ea é. Caithfidh mé a rá, áfach, go bhfuil mé thar a bheith buartha faoi threo an Rialtais i leith na Gaeilge. Go deimhin fhéin, tá sé sin léirithe cheana féin. Cé go bhfuil an-chuid oibre déanta san Oireachtas seo ag an...
