Éamon Ó Cuív: Dá gceapfainn go raibh amhras ar bith air, nach polasaí poiblí é, nó beartas phoiblí é an creatlach pleanála, ní shin an uchtaíocht a bheadh sa reachtaíocht mar ceapadh ag an am gurb é sin an ciall leis. Ní raibh amhras ar bith faoi agus mar a deireadh bhí sé fiafraithe ag an Ard-Aighne ag an am, agus fear an-cumasach...

Éamon Ó Cuív: An fáth a ndeachaigh muid síos bóthar an chúitimh seachas bóthar na bhfíneálacha ná is é an costas céanna ar an eagraíocht é. Ach an smaoineamh a bhí ann ná go mbeadh go leor a scríobhfadh litir i nGaeilge, mar shampla, ag súil le freagra i mBéarla, dá gceapfaidís go bhfaighidís €10...

Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Road Traffic (Amendment) Bill 2017: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Mar 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I foresee a difficulty with that. In my experience in the House, and the Minister has been a Member of the Oireachtas for longer than me, if the Opposition proposes an amendment the Minister is often advised that whereas the substance of the amendment is fine, its wording is flawed so the Minister must bring it back to the Parliamentary Counsel. Therefore, introducing an amendment from the...

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am sorry-----

Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Road Traffic (Amendment) Bill 2017: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Mar 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: With no disrespect, the Minister is missing my point. In my experience here, and the Minister has longer experience than me, often a good idea comes from the Opposition but, as the Minister has correctly pointed out, there might be a flaw in the wording. Often what happened was that on Committee Stage Ministers said they accepted that Deputies had very good ideas but that they were not sure...

Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Road Traffic (Amendment) Bill 2017: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Mar 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am on the record of this House over the years about the abuse of alcohol. It takes lives in many ways. It definitely takes lives on the roads but it also takes lives through illness. It makes a misery of other people's lives and all we have to do is go down the main street of our towns on the weekends to see what is happening, or go into the emergency departments of hospitals. I have...
