Éamon Ó Cuív: 299. To ask the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources if his attention has been drawn to the fact that in devising Eircode, the postcodes assigned to certain addresses around the country do not reflect the county the property is in but rather the county assigned to it by An Post in a postal distribution system based on the railway lines dating to the 19th century; if his...

Éamon Ó Cuív: I started raising questions because there is nothing I hate more than legislation that is not adhered to. The Minister said she is "aware that many Departments are not fully compliant with the current 30-year rule". We are moving to a 20-year rule now even though the law as it stands under the 30-year rule is not being implemented. I understand the Department occasionally has been laggardly...

There are certain ways of avoiding all of that, but that is...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: National Archives (Amendment) Bill 2017: Discussion (1 Mar 2017)

Éamon Ó Cuív: When I first entered the House, if a Department had a statutory duty, great cognisance was had of that and it was done. Over time, there has been an erosion of people's respect for statutory duties. When computer systems were being introduced, a wise person told me that, if I had a paper accounting system that was in a mess, all that the computer would do would be to multiply the mess. If...

Éamon Ó Cuív: I welcome the Minister. I appreciate that the Minister and the two Ministers of State, Deputies Michael Ring and Seán Kyne, live in rural areas, but I think this debate is unrealistic. The action plan is not an action plan. The system got the better of it. It took everything it was doing already and put it into the plan because there was nothing new to be said. The €60...
