Constitutional Issues (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: The Taoiseach is well aware of the Taoiseach that must be followed with regard to the preparatory work that must be done to facilitate the holding of a referendum. The all-party Oireachtas committee did its work well and its members, on all sides, agreed on a wording, which was forwarded to the Minister of State with responsibility for children. There is a process with must be undergone...

Constitutional Issues (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: It relates to the holding of a referendum on children's rights, which emanated directly from the Sullivan report. If the Ceann Comhairle has a difficulty with that, I am sure I could probably be of assistance to him. What stage has the work of the Minister of State with responsibility for children, Deputy Barry Andrews, reached? Does the Taoiseach envisage that the process involving the...

Departmental Records (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: The National Archives Act lays down regulations as to how the storing of records is governed and empowers the National Archives to instruct State bodies on the storing of archives. I understand there are currently clear regulations governing the storage of paper records but it appears there are no regulations governing the storage of electronic records. The Taoiseach said that all the staff...

Departmental Records (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: The National Archives Act empowers the National Archives to instruct Departments and agencies to migrate information to systems that can be stored for the future. Does the Taoiseach have any information about that? Some Departments are not under an obligation to do so. Letters came to public notice recently from the Famine period, for example. I do not say these kinds of letters are in...

Departmental Records (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: I thank the Taoiseach for the update on the merging of the National Library with the Irish Manuscripts Commission and the National Archives.

Leaders' Questions. (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: The world is now aware of the incidents that took place in international waters in the Mediterranean. I refer to the attack by Israeli commandos on the flotilla carrying humanitarian and medical aid and food supplies that was heading for Gaza. This incident should never have occurred. However, it did happen in international waters. I have heard the Government's comments in respect of this...

Leaders' Questions. (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: I thank the Taoiseach for his reply and I support his comments. Last April I led a delegation of party members to the West Bank and Gaza where we saw for ourselves the destruction of buildings, streets and towns some five months after the invasion by Israel. We saw the symbol of international investment in Gaza, the American International School, blown to pieces. The school caretaker...

Leaders' Questions. (1 Jun 2010)

Enda Kenny: Are there are any actions the Government proposes to take here at home in so far as relations with Israel are concerned? Is it the Taoiseach's intention actively to seek the support of his colleague Prime Ministers at the June meeting for a definite co-ordinated response from Europe, as is our entitlement and our responsibility in facing a very serious international incident that occurred on...

Order of Business. (1 Jun 2010)
