Order of Business (13 Apr 2011)

Pearse Doherty: I will try to be as concise as possible. Will the Taoiseach allow time for a debate in the House on the scenario post-2012 given the European Commission has stated this State will have exhausted all the EU-IMF money at that stage? I thank the Ceann Comhairle for not interrupting me when putting that question to the Taoiseach.

European Council: Statements (13 Apr 2011)

Pearse Doherty: How are we to achieve that, given that interest rates, nearly six months on from the start of the negotiations of the bailout, are even higher than then? I wish the Taoiseach well and I hope he does well because it is not a party-political matter. The country needs him to do well and sort this problem out.

Pearse Doherty: Is that another U-turn?

European Council: Statements (13 Apr 2011)

Pearse Doherty: The Minister stated that we need to send out a confident message. In regard to his statement that other contributions are a recipe for depression, I am sure he is aware of a former Taoiseach who also dismissed with the same type of words claims by others that the economic policies that the then Government were pursuing were not the right ones and would lead us into depression. The Minister...

Údarás na Gaeltachta (14 Apr 2011)

Pearse Doherty: Guím gach rath ar an Aire Stáit sa phost nua atá aige mar duine as mo pharóiste féin. Tá cúpla ceist shimplí ó thaobh na gcúraimí a bheidh ag Údarás na Gaeltachta. Tá a fhios againn faoin reachtaíocht agus faoin spriocdáta toghcháin atá ann.

Údarás na Gaeltachta (14 Apr 2011)

Pearse Doherty: Ar an ábhar céanna, tacaím leis an Aire Stáit fosta maidir leis an scéim úr.

Pearse Doherty: Déanaim comhghairdeas leis an Aire. I am glad to see someone coming here from the Seanad and going straight into the Cabinet.

We all share the views of the Government that we should stop people living in poverty through the creation of meaningful and well paid full-time jobs. However, there is another element in that cuts...
