Seanad: Order of Business (11 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Ba mhaith liom mo chomhbhrón a chur in iúl do mhuintir agus clann Pól Mac an Draoi, Paul Drury, a bhásaigh le cúpla lá anuas. B'fhéidir nach raibh an pholaitíocht chéanna ná an tuairimíocht chéanna agam féin agus ag Pól, ach aon uair a casadh orm é ba léir gur duine uasal ab ea é. Bhí an-spraoi ag...

Seanad: Misuse of Drugs (Amendment) Bill 2015: Second Stage (Resumed) (11 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire. Thug an Chúirt Athchomhairc cinneadh inné maidir le halt 2(2) den Acht um Mí-Úsáid Drugaí 1997, ag rá go raibh sé neamhbhailí. Thug an t-alt áirid úd cead don Rialtas de réir ordú substaintí áiride a ainmniú mar dhrugaí smachtaithe. Beidh an reachtaíocht seo á...

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Universities Governance (10 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Mar a bhí mé ag rá leis an Aire taobh amuigh, tá sé i gceist agam labhairt as Gaeilge amháin sna Tithe an tseachtain seo mar gheall ar Seachtain na Gaeilge agus mar chuid de thriall cearta teanga atá ar bun agam féin agus ag cuid de mo chomhghleacaithe. Tá mé thar a bheith buíoch don Aire faoi teacht isteach. Tá mé ag...

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Universities Governance (10 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Tá iontas orm go bhfuil an tAire ag rá go bhfuil sí sásta leis an gcur chuige atá ag NUIG, fiú ar an mbunphointe nach bhfuil ionadaí ó aon cheann de na ceardchumainn a bhaineann leis an gceist seo - SIPTU, IFUT nó Aontas na Mac Léinn in Éirinn - ar an tascfhórsa. Cheapfaí, ar mhaithe leis na n-oibrithe agus na daoine atá...

Seanad: Ambulance Services in Dublin: Statements (10 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Cuirim céad fáilte roimh an Aire. De réir mar a thuigimse, tá sé i gceist na seirbhísí atá á shólathar ag Briogáid Dóiteáin Bhaile Átha Cliath a chur faoi scáth an tSeirbhís Náisiúnta Otharcharr. Caithfimid déanamh cinnte sa phróiséas seo nach bhfuil an Rialtas chun fáil réidh...

Seanad: Ireland's Diaspora Policy: Statements (10 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Mar mhíniú don Aire Stáit, mar gheall ar Seachtain na Gaeilge, táim ag labhairt i nGaeilge amháin sna Tithe an tseachtain seo. Beidh mé ag tógáil m'aitheasc ar fad i nGaeilge agus tá súil agam go mbeidh sé liom. Cuirim fáilte roimh an bpolasaí. Sílim go bhfuil go leor rudaí maithe ann. Tá go leor rudaí a...

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Forbairt Pobal (4 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Cuirim céad fáilte roimh an Aire Stáit, go háirithe an tseachtain seo, Seachtain na Gaeilge. Is breá an rud go bhfuil muid ag cur leis an obair sin inniu ó thaobh na Gaeilge de. Baineann an cheist atá á ardú agam inniu leis an eagraíocht Pléaráca Teoranta. Is eagraíocht ealaíona agus pobail é Pléaráca...

Seanad: Commencement Matters: Forbairt Pobal (4 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Tá ceist shimplí agam ar an Aire Stáit. An mbeidh an Aire Stáit sásta airgead breise a chur ar fáil ón Roinn don Údarás sa gcás is nach mbeidh an maoiniú ó SICAP chomh hard agus a bhí sé ó na cláir eile roimhe sin. Cinntódh sé sin go mbeidh an méid céanna airgid ag Pléarácha le...

Seanad: Order of Business (4 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I support the call by Senator Mullins for a debate on the diaspora. The Leader promised such a debate previously. There are many laudable elements in the strategy that was brought forward but, sadly, the issue around representation and voting rights for the diaspora has been left out. The Leader might clarify when we would have that debate. A Minister should also come into the House to...

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: -----to discuss workers' right issues and in regard to that we could bring up the situation of the ushers.

Seanad: Order of Business (4 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I suggest that the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation could be asked in to discuss workers' rights and as part of that we could certainly bring up the issues that have been brought up this morning as regards workers' rights in these Houses. I have concerns about this and I would like to see the clarification that has been asked for.

Seanad: Order of Business (4 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I accept the Cathaoirleach's ruling but workers' rights are workers' right no matter where they are working. Last week, following threats to republican families in south Armagh who have been forthright in their support for the PSNI and in their opposition to criminality, a booby-trap bomb was left close to the home of a local Sinn Féin leader, Frank McCabe. Francis McCabe junior, a...

Seanad: Order of Business (4 Mar 2015)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Will the Leader ask the Taoiseach to ensure adequate resources are given to An Garda Síochána to investigate properly the activities of these criminals and will he ensure there is full co-operation with the PSNI and that the PSNI does what it is paid to do? Will the Government send a clear message-----

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire Stáit agus muid ar ais arís ag plé an Bhille iontach tábhachtach seo. Ar na leasuithe trí chéile, sílim go n-aontaítear ar an dtaobh seo den Teach nach bhfuil an méid atá molta ag an Rialtas ag teacht leis an méid a gealladh. We have had a briefing subsequent to the Second Stage debate on the issues we...
