Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Aerfoirt Réigiúnacha (10 Apr 2019)

Seán Kyne: Tá an Teachta ceart go raibh muid ag súil go mbeadh an próiseas críochnaithe roimh dheireadh Mí Márta. Sin an spriocdáta a bhí leagtha síos. Theip orainn é sin a dhéanamh ach tá an próiseas fós beo agus tá an próiseas ag dul ar aghaidh. Mar a dúirt mé, tá an Roinn ag déanamh suirbhé...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Aerfoirt Réigiúnacha (10 Apr 2019)

Seán Kyne: Níl mé in ann spriocdáta don phróiseas a leagan síos. Tá an próiseas ag dul ar aghaidh agus caithfimid fanacht go dtí go mbeidh an idirbheartaíocht críochnaithe agus ansin beidh próiseas i ndiaidh sin ó thaobh próiseas dlí de agus tógann an próiseas am. Cé go bhfuil na feidhmeannaigh ag plé an...

Seán Kyne: Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil éileamh ann. Fáiltím go bhfuil cinneadh déanta ag an Aire dhá scoil nua a bhunú tríd an bpátrúnacht Gaolainn agus tá sé sin fíorthábhachtach. Mar a dúirt mé, tá dul chun cinn suntasach déanta sa phlean a d'fhoilsigh muid i Mí an Mheithimh anuraidh cheana féin chun...

Seán Kyne: Ní bheidh mé ag cur an mhilleáin ar an mBreatimeacht as seo amach. Tá an obair sin críochnaithe anois ag na dréachtóirí agus ag Oifig an Ard-Aighne. Aontaím go bhfuil frustrachas ar dhaoine, an Coimisinéir Teanga san áireamh. Bhí mé i dteagmháil leis an tseachtain seo caite. Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil frustrachas ar...

Seán Kyne: Mar a dúirt mé, beidh mé ag coimeád brú ar m'fheidhmeannaigh, ar Oifig an Ard-Aighne, agus ar na dréachtóirí.

Seán Kyne: Níl aon ról reachtúil agam maidir leis an bpróiseas pátrúnachta do scoileanna nua. Mar a cuireadh in iúl don Teach i mo fhreagra ar Cheist Uimh. 629 den 2 Aibreán 2019, áfach, bhí plé neamhfhoirmiúil cheana féin idir oifigigh shinsireach mo Roinn agus páirtithe leasmhara eile, an scátheagraíocht do scoileanna...

Seanad: Wildlife (Amendment) Act 2016: Committee Stage (Resumed) (9 Apr 2019)

Seán Kyne: I thank all of the Senators for a very interesting debate on this topic. It is one that all councillors will appreciate and many of the issues raised will resonate with them. The primary purpose of any review of national heritage areas must be with regard to nature conservation, in terms of maintaining bog habitats at, or restoring bog habitats to, a favourable conservation status. The...

We must always remember some of these projects are about the upgrade of roads to make them safer as much as they are to make them faster....
