Éamon Ó Cuív: Mar is eol don Teachta, is í an tAire Oideachais agus Eolaíochta atá freagrach as cúrsaí oideachais, ar a n-áirítear cúrsaí meánscolaíochta sa Ghaeltacht. I gcomhthéacs na freagrachta atá ormsa agus ar mo Roinnse i ndáil leis an nGaeilge agus leis an nGaeltacht, bíonn cruinnithe rialta againn leis an Aire Oideachais agus Eolaíochta agus le hoifigigh a Roinne chun...

Waterways Ireland has informed me that there has historically been no requirement to...

Written Answers — EU Regulations: EU Regulations (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: While the cases were not referred to by the Deputy, it would appear that the question relates to the decision of the High Court in Vincent Browne v. the Attorney General and the Supreme Court in Thomas Kennedy v. the Attorney General and the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources. The Supreme Court decided that an EU regulation can only be transposed by regulations under a...

Written Answers — Community Development: Community Development (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I propose to take Question Nos. 297 and 303 together. I take it that the Deputy is asking if I propose to expand the CLÁR areas. There are no plans at this time for any further review of the boundary of CLÁR areas. I also confirm that no other significant areas fulfil the population criteria for inclusion in CLÁR and I have examined this issue thoroughly. The criteria for inclusion are...

Written Answers — Water and Sewerage Schemes: Water and Sewerage Schemes (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: No application for the CLÁR group water top-up scheme has been rendered ineligible because of ancillary costs.

It is a matter for the group whether it can pay the difference between the grant and the actual cost of ancillary works if these are more than 25% of...

Offshore Islands. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Inishbiggle has one of the best helipads in the country and my Department put it in. I recognise that helicopter evacuation in terms of illness or other emergencies is vital. Doctors based on the islands full-time always tell me they get an excellent service from both the search and rescue helicopter and the Air Corps.

Offshore Islands. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I have kept in touch about this. There is more than one doctor on the Arann Islands and I have not received any complaints about availability, particularly from the Arann Islands, which have the largest population and the most calls out. Other doctors on the west coast have said the same.

Offshore Islands. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: The Deputy is trying to lead me into a wider issue that would be just as pertinent on the mainland as on the islands.

Offshore Islands. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Lift time into a hospital from the islands because of the provision of helipads and the willingness of rescue services to provide the service would be considerably quicker than in large parts of the mainland in my constituency.

Offshore Islands. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am not a doctor, I cannot argue about one service but the helicopters and helipads are available and there is quick lift time from the islands.

Táim sásta freisin go n-éireoidh leis na comhlachtaí poiblí na dualgais reachtúla a thitfidh orthu go céimiúil faoin Acht a chomhlíonadh agus go deimhin go nglacfaidh said leis an dúshlán le meon dearfach agus...

Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Maidir le hAer Lingus, mar is eol don Teachta, tá soláthar san Acht le haghaidh an ruda a d'ardaigh sé. Má tá dualgas ar chomhlacht Stáit atá in iomaíocht le comhlachtaí príobháideacha, tá soláthar faoin Acht leis an bpáirc a choinneáil cothrom. Chonaic mé tagairt sa bpáipéar——

Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla. (29 Jun 2005)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Má bhíonn gá leis, cinnte. Níl a fhios agam cén fáth go raibh Aer Lingus ag tagairt dó sin. Bhí sé ag caint ar fhógraíocht, agus níl aon rialachán déanta agam faoi fhógraíocht, agus níl aon mhaith do dhaoine bheith ag caint ar rud nach bhfuil ann. Maidir leis an rud a dúirt an Teachta faoin Roinn Gnóthaí Sóisialacha agus Teaghlaigh, tá€500,000 curtha ar leataobh aici...
