Ambulance Service: Motion [Private Members] (15 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá áthas orm go bhfuil deis agam cúpla focal a rá maidir leis an tseirbhís otharcharranna. Is dócha gurb é an rud is suntasaí ar fad ná cé chomh fada agus a bhíonn ar mhuintir an iarthair fanacht ar otharcharr. Tá sé léirithe nach mbíonn ach 45% de ghlaonna amach i gceantar an iarthair ann laistigh den am atá...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fishing Industry Losses Due to Recent Storms: Discussion (15 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá brón orm go raibh mé déanach. I am sorry I was late; I was unavoidably detained. Ba mhaith liom díriú ar rud amháin ar an gcéad dul síos. Tá sé ráite ag an Aire go bhfuil €1.5 milliún ar fáil don scéim. The Minister has said he has €1.5 million available. He has said that no money has been paid...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fishing Industry Losses Due to Recent Storms: Discussion (15 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: My sense is that we must analyse hard-headedly what is achievable. In other words, one should ask in a way that maximises one's chance of achieving something. Park the income issue for the moment and look at the narrow scheme the Minister introduced. He said it is €1.5 million and it comes out of current resources. I would imagine that he will not go back to the Cabinet for money...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fishing Industry Losses Due to Recent Storms: Discussion (15 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Let us put money on this. If we take Mr. Healy's situation, where he is entitled to 50 shrimp pots at €12 each, it amounts to €600. We see the same thing in agricultural schemes where there is a lot of hassle and little money. People walk past it and say that it is better to buy them and to forget about it. If that is changed to a maximum of 200 pots at €18, it...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fishing Industry Losses Due to Recent Storms: Discussion (15 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Providing €10,000 to each amounts to €10 million. If I thought there was a snowball's chance in hell of getting €10 million from the Minister, I would be the first person to pound down his door. If he is doing it out of the current budget, we will not get €10 million if we ask for it but there is €1.5 million on the table and we are not even taking it....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fishing Industry Losses Due to Recent Storms: Discussion (15 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: We need to get details on the type of equipment, the amount, the level of the grant, the maximum and so on. When the sums have been done and the receipts are produced, people must figure out in their heads what is realistic, as if they are going to the fair to sell or buy an animal. The Chairman said very clearly that we will pursue the social welfare issue. This applies to those who are...

Competition and Consumer Protection Bill 2014: Second Stage (Resumed) (16 Apr 2014)

Éamon Ó Cuív: While I welcome the very belated publication of the Bill, some of the previous speakers have highlighted a whole lot of issues which remain unaddressed in the proposed legislation. The Minister has now been in Government for three years. The Bill was on the A list in autumn 2012. We are getting a Bill dealing with the relationship between suppliers and retailers which gives the Minister...
