Aindrias Moynihan: Sea. Tá sé anseo ar an ráiteas go bhfoilseoidh an Roinn na hábhair éagsúla as Gaolainn agus as Béarla. Theastaigh uaim a chinntiú go bhfoilsítear iad ag an am céanna. Foilsítear cuid acu ag an am céanna agus-----

Aindrias Moynihan: An bhfaigheann Gaelscoileanna agus scoileanna Gaeltachta na ciorcláin a sheoltar ag an am céanna leis na scoileanna eile?

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): An Roinn Oideachais agus Scileanna (9 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: Táim saghas measctha. Faigheann bunscoileanna na ciorcláin go léir ag an am céanna ach b'fhéidir go mbeidh bearna idir foilsiú an leagan Béarla agus foilsiú an leagan Gaeilge ar an leibhéal iarbhunscoile.

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): An Roinn Oideachais agus Scileanna (9 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: Baineann an mhoill sin leis an Roinn seachas leis an ETB nó pé áit eile a théann an ciorclán.

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): An Roinn Oideachais agus Scileanna (9 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: An bhfuil ag Roinn ag súil go dtiocfadh ciorclán faoi leith i bhfeidhm i ngach scoil ag an am céanna nó an bhfuil cead i leith moille á thabhairt do na háiteanna nár cuireadh an ciorclán ar fáil dóibh ag an am céanna?

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): An Roinn Oideachais agus Scileanna (9 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: Má tá spriocdháta ar na ciorclán ar a dtagann siad i bhfeidhm, an bhfuil sé ina dhiaidh an dáta ar a seoltar amach iad?

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): An Roinn Oideachais agus Scileanna (9 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: Má tá tréimhse ama idir an ciorclán a scaoileadh chuig an scoil agus a theacht i bhfeidhm, cén fáth go bhrostaítear an leagan Béarla amach ó am go ham? Cén fáth nach scaoileann an Roinn iad 100% go léir cinnte ag an am céanna más rud é nach mbeidh siad ag teacht i bhfeidhm roimh spriocdháta amach ó sheoladh...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: State Pensions Payments (4 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: The 2012 pension cut hit very hard because it reduced the weekly pension for many people. Six years on, the correction was very much needed. However, time is not on the side of the people who are losing out. Having their weekly payment corrected as soon as possible must be a priority, given there are 90,000 people losing out each week. How soon will those reviews be concluded so people...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: State Pensions Payments (4 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: The figures suggest there are 90,000 people affected and there has been a staff increase of 120. Given some 1,200 to 1,300 cases are being processed per week, this suggests the 90,000 could take a year or a year and a half to process. Time is not on the side of these people. Is the Minister satisfied the Department has enough staff on that force to deal with this? It initially started off...

Aindrias Moynihan: On World Autism Awareness Day, I am delighted to support the motion. I acknowledge those in the Visitors Gallery, as well as Deputies Funchion and Ó Caoláin for bringing forward the motion which I hope will receive unanimous support because there needs to be one voice on this issue. Children with autism need to have the same chance as every other child. The Cork-Kerry region...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Tourism Promotion (2 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: I am in contact with the various tourism organisations. We have great potential and a great offering, but the focus seems to be on beds as distinct from the experience, the offering and the promotion of same. There is an urgency, as we want to develop the area and not miss out on the opportunity just because traffic is passing by on the bypass. I acknowledge the new scheme, which sounds...

Aindrias Moynihan: The route 233 bus service serves a wide community from Ballincollig all the way across the Lee Valley to Ballingeary. We need to see service improvements on that route so that people can view it as an alternative to cars for travelling to and from work and college or to moving into Cork city. This route serves a large, growing community, so I ask the Minister to make every effort to extend...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed) - Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Bus Éireann Services (2 Apr 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: I thank the Minister for those details. While I recognise that he is not involved in day-to-day issues, he is responsible for policy. Significant policies are outlined in Project Ireland 2040, which refers to improving the fleet and taking on the challenge of escalating traffic congestion. Anyone travelling on the N22 and trying to get off the Ballincollig bypass at Ovens bridge knows that...
