Joe O'Reilly: Yes. We have to ensure they know.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: National Broadband Plan: Discussion (22 May 2019)

Joe O'Reilly: I have a final man-or-woman-in-the-street question. I can anticipate the answer but I still want to ask it, if the Chairman does not mind. If the entire NBI or part thereof was to be sold or be taken over or flipped and sold on, all things remain the same. Are there mechanisms for that? How would it work that there would be no interest lost, if in a year's time they found someone to take...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Financial Implications of the Petroleum and Other Minerals (Amendment) (Climate Emergency Measures) Bill 2018: Discussion (11 Jun 2019)

Joe O'Reilly: It is a normal courtesy to welcome the Minister of State and his officials to the committee meeting. At no point in Deputy Smith's submission did she suggest that there is not goodwill in this committee on climate change. I acknowledge that she never suggested that because it is not the case. There is goodwill. Senator McDowell was anxious to preface his remarks similarly and his bona...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Financial Implications of the Petroleum and Other Minerals (Amendment) (Climate Emergency Measures) Bill 2018: Discussion (11 Jun 2019)

Joe O'Reilly: I am also aware from parliamentary party meetings that the unveiling of a complete climate action plan is imminent. With respect to Deputy Smith and others, whose bona fides are very sound, given the recommendations of the committee, the assembly and the student movement, it would be wise to wait for the climate action plan, to have buy-in to it and to make sure that any proposals we make...

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Polasaí don Oideachas Gaeltachta 2017-2022: Plé (18 Jun 2019)

Joe O'Reilly: Cuirim fáilte roimh na finnéithe. Is dea-scéal é go bhfuil an scéim aitheantais scoileanna Gaeltachta ag feabhsú an chaighdeáin agus ag déanamh forbairt mhaith ar an Ghaeilge agus ar labhairt na teanga. Is cosúil go bhfuil sé ag déanamh jab maith. Bhí mé chun ceist a chur ach bhí an Teachta Aindrias Moynihan ag plé...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed) (19 Jun 2019)

Joe O'Reilly: I welcome the witnesses and thank them for the briefing document they provided. In the document and their presentations, they put considerable focus on ownership of the network, which is reasonable. In their extensive submission they refer to schools and road projects and use them as a kind of benchmark. In their analysis, did they apply the same assumptions to the fibre broadband network...

Joe O'Reilly: I will repeat them if that is necessary. With the permission of the Chair, I will finish asking my questions. If the Chair would prefer, I will ask them one by one. I was assuming that the witnesses have a high level of capacity.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed) (19 Jun 2019)

Joe O'Reilly: Have they considered the success or otherwise of the gap funded model used for broadband in the UK and Scotland? Have they looked at how that model worked there? That would be a valid comparative study. In fact, it would be the most valid comparison. A previous witness told the committee that in the UK, BT initially assessed a 20% take-up in the early years of the service, but the actual...
