Delivering Universal Healthcare: Statements (15 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: I welcome the opportunity to contribute, however briefly. I want to put it in perspective for Galway city. I am conscious of what the former Taoiseach said regarding improvements. I acknowledge improvements, the extra consultant contracts, the abolition of charges and so on. However, we have a jigsaw of pieces with no overall picture of universal care. There is a background to that. It...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Gabhaim míle buíochas leis na finnéithe arís. Tá teipthe orm smaoineamh ar cheisteanna mar is dea-scéal amach is amach go bhfuil éileamh ann agus go bhfuil an t-éileamh sin ag méadú an t-am uilig. Is dúshlán iontach agus dea-scéal é sin ach, ag an am céanna, níl an t-éileamh sin á shásamh ag an...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Is rud chomh bunúsach é ceann de na moltaí gur cheart próiseas chun scoileanna lán-Ghaeilge a bhunú a thabhairt isteach. Is rud bunúsach é sin atá ag teastáil go géar. Ansin freisin, ba cheart go mbeadh ceart dlíthiúil ag duine chun oideachas lán-Ghaeilge a fháil. Cheap mé go raibh an ceart sin ann;...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: -----agus ansin dualgas reachtúil a thabhairt isteach maidir le líon na scoileanna lán-Ghaeilge a ordú. Arís, is rudaí bunúsacha iad sin. Cheap mé go raibh an ceart sin ann ach is í an easpa ar an talamh atá ag teacht salach ar an gceart sin. Is é an rud eile a léim amach ná an tionchar atá ann ó thaobh na Gaeilge...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Gabh mo leithscéal, ach is é an rud eile a thug mé suntas dó nó an éagsúlacht. De ghnáth, mar shampla, i nGaillimh agus i gcontaetha eile, cuirtear ina leith nach bhfuil na Gaelcholáistí nó na bunscoileanna Gaeilge ag freastal ar dhaoine le héagsúlacht. Is maith an rud go bhfuil trácht ar an rud sin le cloisteáil...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Go raibh maith ag na finnéithe. Tá sé sin an-chabhrach agus aontaím libh. Níl aon easaontas anseo. Luaigh na finnéithe teachtaireacht. Tá baol ann leis an rud a dúirt Eóin MacMaoilir ansin. Ní rud pearsanta é ach is é an rud a tharlaíonn i gcónaí ná go ndeir daoine gur mhaith leo a bheith cruinn agus...

[21571/24]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Renewable Energy Generation (14 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: My question relates to the renewable electricity support scheme. I have a particular interest in it because having community involvement is an essential part of the solution to being sustainable in Ireland. What is the status of the community-led projects under the renewable electricity support scheme 2? How many remain in the process, and when will they be energised? Will it be 2024,...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Renewable Energy Generation (14 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: I welcome the last part where the Minister of State said the new SRESS scheme will be announced in the next few weeks. A climate emergency was declared in 2019, as he well knows. The renewable electricity support scheme was introduced in 2018. It is now six years later, and we seem to be limping on and limping on. I am really trying to find out information about the first RESS scheme. I...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Renewable Energy Generation (14 May 2024)

Catherine Connolly: I do not share the same faith with the Minister of State, although I share the importance of community involvement. I will repeat that this has been going on from 2018 to 2024 and we are limping on and limping on. I have no handle on which communities have been successful. I want to share that with my own constituents in Galway. The private sector has a huge offshore plan in Sceirde that...
