National Monuments (The Moore Street Battlefield) Bill 2018: Second Stage [Private Members] (20 Sep 2018)

Peadar Tóibín: I move: "That the Bill be now read a Second Time." The stories of the Irish State and of the Moore Street battlefield site mirror each other in many ways. Moore Street has been said to be the birthplace of the Irish State. The lanes and buildings that surround the street reverberate with the heroism of the people who were out in 1916. That action was the precursor to an independent...

Mary Lou McDonald: ...Tóibín as ucht é a chur faoi bhráid na Dála, agus iarraim ar gach aon Teachta tacaíocht a thabhairt don Bhille atá ós ár gcomhair. The aim of the Bill before the Dáil is to designate certain parts of Moore Street and its immediate surroundings a national monument, the Moore Street battlefield site, as Deputy Tóibín has set out....

Maureen O'Sullivan: Yes. A number of us here have been consistent and persistent in raising the issue of Moore Street. I have used opportunities during Leaders' Questions, other questions and Topical Issue debates to discuss it. However, it has been a while since we had a discussion on Moore Street and a positive aspect of Deputy Tóibín's Bill is that we have this opportunity to discuss it this...

Peadar Tóibín: That is true. For ages we have seen excuse after excuse from the establishment of this State for not simply making Moore Street a national monument. It is incredible. The parties will always find a reason. I was told during the Government's appeal of the High Court case that it was not about Moore Street and its importance as a national monument, it was simply about planning issues...

Peadar Tóibín: The stories of the Irish State and of Moore Street are very much mirror images of each other. It is often said that the battlefield site is the birthplace of the State. The lanes of Moore Street reverberated with the heroism of 1916 which set in train the events leading to the freedom of this part of the island and the end of hundreds of years of occupation and exploitation. Moore Street...

Seán Haughey: ...with this matter, which was beyond the call of duty. His grandfather was involved and he has a significant interest in all matters concerning the Easter Rising. He has been particularly active about saving Moore Street and we are all grateful to him for that. This was the birthplace of the Republic and 14 to 17 Moore Street is a national monument. All of us are calling for the...

Peadar Tóibín: ...it. As Deputy Gerry Adams stated, 100 years have passed but the State has not developed the site. Interestingly, the Minister referred to the inadequacy of the Bill. The current condition of Moore Street is inadequate. A quarter of our capital city, adjacent to some of its principal streets, is derelict. It is used for alcohol and drug consumption. People defecate on the street...

Gerry Adams: ...liom buíochas a ghabháil leis na daoine a bhí ag obair ar son na cúise seo, go háirithe gaolta na bhfear agus na mban a bhí páirteach san Éirí Amach. I pay homage and thanks to the Save Moore Street groups and the 1916 relatives, and I express solidarity with the Moore Street traders. It is a scandal that we have not developed a proper and...

Josepha Madigan: I move amendment No. 1:To delete all words after “That” and substitute the following:Dáil Éireann declines to give a second reading to the National Monuments (The Moore Street Battlefield) Bill 2018 in order to allow the Moore St. Advisory Group to continue and conclude its deliberations, given that the Bill, as proposed, is pre-emptive of the on-going work of the...

Peadar Tóibín: ...is great disappointment on this side and among many of the campaigners with regard to the Government's decision on the matter. The only reason Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael would refuse to recognise Moore Street as a national monument is to leave the door open to development in Moore Street that is not in sympathy with a national monument. If that were the case, Members would simply...

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...foirgnimh seo ar fad agus ar an gcineál ceann céanna ar fud na cathrach. I am delighted to be here with my two colleagues. It is fair to say to Deputy Browne that Wexford has been involved in risings going back to 1798, and it was very involved in the Easter Rising. I am particularly pleased to be here with my colleague, Deputy Seán Haughey, whose grandfather,...

Josepha Madigan: ...Tóibín's Bill, I reiterate that the Government cannot support it. I will pick up on a couple of points in the time available. I am pleased to hear Deputy Maureen O'Sullivan supports the Moore Street report. As she is aware the advisory group is working to implement it. The landowner is now looking at saving more existing buildings in the area and we have a chance to...

Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: ...only view as a blocking amendment. I am sorry that others seem to think it is the appropriate thing to do to support it. It is a blocking amendment to the Bill that purports to favour allowing the Moore Street advisory group "to continue and conclude its deliberations". No one is seeking to prevent the group from continuing its work; on the contrary. I wish to record my sincere...

Josepha Madigan: ...the State-owned national monument at Nos. 14 to 17. The idea is to broker regeneration solutions that can be supported by all concerned. The site around the national monument extends from Moore Street to the Carlton cinema on O’Connell Street and takes in most of the ground, laneways and buildings in between. It is largely in the ownership of a single entity and equates...

Peadar Tóibín: I ask the Minister not to reply to me now but, rather, to send me a short reply by email stating whether she agrees that the Moore Street battlefield site is a national monument. If she, Fianna Fáil, Sinn Féin and Independent Deputies all believe it is, let us make it such.

James Browne: ...Francis Meagher flew it in Waterford city. A plaque was erected at the cathedral in 1968 to mark that event. There is a great deal of history and heritage in my home town of Enniscorthy. The Moore Street area is a central part of our heritage, and it is critical that it be preserved appropriately to honour the sacrifice of those who fought for Irish freedom and self-determination....
