Teanga Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá mé ag caint ar rudaí a dhéanamh. D'achtaigh muid an tAcht teanga. Chuir muid an Ghaeilge isteach mar theanga oifigiúil oibre san Eoraip. Chuir muid scéim na gcúntóirí Gaeilge agus scéim na gcampaí samhraidh ar bun. Rinne muid athbheochan iomlán ar scéim na bhfeabhsúchán Gaeltachta, a bhí rite síos le tamall de bhlianta.

Teanga Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá an iliomad rud déanta againn ar son na teanga. Agus is é an t-aon rud atá á mholadh dúinn anois ná go gcuirfí deireadh léi sna scoileanna.

Teanga Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Caithfidh mé é sin a thabhairt dó, agus níor sheas mise suas ariamh sa Teach seo á rá nach ndearna sé an rud sin, agus thug mé míle moladh dó taobh istigh den Teach seo an rud sin a dhéanamh, agus tugaim moladh dó arís inniu.

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I propose to take Questions Nos. 52 and 87 together. The launch of Transport 21 was a major boost to the future of rural Ireland. The investment of €34.4 billion will transform this country's transport network within a ten year financial framework and will deliver better and more balanced regional development. This will be achieved through improved road and rail services throughout the...

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Constitutionally, we are one Government.

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: It also has responsibility for public transport services such as buses and trains. Essentially, Transport 21 is concerned with public transport, that is, buses and trains, as well as major national routes. The map published with this plan shows that, unlike previous transport plans, this one deals with isolated areas in terms of national routes. For that reason, I particularly welcomed its...

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: The Deputy must ask that question of the Minister for Transport. However, I am sure his heart was warmed yesterday on learning that work on the Castleblayney bypass has commenced.

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: As the Deputy is aware, the first phase of the Monaghan bypass is under construction and the Carrickmacross bypass has been completed. That means that if one uses the M1 motorway, one nearly has a straight run from Dublin all the way to the Border. As the Deputy is also aware, the Ballyshannon and Bundoran bypasses are under construction. Some years ago, the Donegal and Barnesmore Gap...

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I do not know. That would be a matter for my colleague, the Minister for Transport. I suggest the Deputy should table a question for him. However, it is clear that the north west is to the forefront of the plan. Within this jurisdiction, it is all happening for the north west as far as roads are concerned, and not before time. In a few years' time, if there are no developments in Northern...

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: The only circumstance in which it is unlikely to be met is if we are no longer in Government. Work on the western rail corridor will commence next year. As I have already stated, I have had discussions with Iarnród Éireann about preserving the line from Claremorris to Collooney and it has been extremely proactive in this respect, as has the Department of Transport. I am familiar with the...

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: The one through Bruree.

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am not the Minister for Transport and, as the Deputy is perfectly aware, I would not know that minor detail. I can tell him, however, that when we open the western rail corridor, one will be able to travel from Sligo to Cork without going to Dublin.

Rural Transport Services. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: No. I have had discussions with Iarnród Éireann and understand it or a contractor it hires will complete the project.

Fóram na Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Mar is eol don Teachta, bunaíodh Fóram na Gaeilge le comhairle a chur ar fáil maidir le inmholtacht plean straitéiseach 20 bliain a réiteach don Ghaeilge sa Stát le spriocanna réalaíocha; na tosaíochta straitéise gearrthéarmacha do chaomhnú agus do chur chun cinn na Gaeilge laistigh den Stát; na tosaíochta maidir le cur i bhfeidhm Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla; agus na bealaí...

Fóram na Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ráiteas ón Rialtas a bheidh i gceist. Clúdóidh sé áit na Gaeilge sa saol, sa bpobal agus sa Stát. Tá fíor-ghá leis seo.

Fóram na Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Iarradh ar oifigeach de chuid na Roinne tosú ag réiteach dréachta tar éis cruinniú d'Fhóram na Gaeilge. Tugadh dréacht ar ais ag Fóram na Gaeilge, pléadh é agus rinneadh moltaí áirithe ina leith. Rinneadh tuilleadh oibre air agus ansin iarradh ar shaineolaí breathnú air agus moltaí a dhéanamh. Tá mé féin anois ag breathnú air. Ráiteas Rialtais a bheidh ann agus foilseoidh...

Fóram na Gaeilge. (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Bíonn tuairiscí faoi gach rud na laethanta seo. Níl seachtain a théann thart nach mbíonn tuairisc éigin ar chúrsaí talmhaíochta agus ar bhochtanas agus mar sin. Ní féidir a rá gur faoin nGaeilge is mó a scríobhtar tuairiscí. Ó tháinig mé isteach, bhí tuarascáil Choimisiún na Gaeltachta. Bhí 19 moladh aige. Má scrúdaítear na moltaí, tá bunáite acu curtha i bhfeidhm...

Written Answers — Foclóirí Gaeilge agus Béarla: Foclóirí Gaeilge agus Béarla (30 Nov 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Mar a thug mé le fios cheana, tá céim a haon den tionscadal seo críochnaithe. Tuigim ó Fhoras na Gaeilge go bhfuil sé mar aidhm acu conraitheoir seachtrach a roghnú le linn 2006 chun tabhairt faoi chéim a dó den tionscadal (is é sin, scríobh agus tiomsú an fhoclóra ina iomláine) tríd an ngnáthphróiseas tairisceana poiblí. Meastar go dtógfaidh sé trí nó ceithre bliana ar...
