Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Elimination of Abuse Directed Toward Referees, Officials, and Players in Sport: Discussion (11 May 2022)

Niamh Smyth: It has a huge impact. If we went back to when we did not have social media and compared that with now, I am sure there would be a stark difference. Did Dr. May have any comments to make on those questions?

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Elimination of Abuse Directed Toward Referees, Officials, and Players in Sport: Discussion (11 May 2022)

Niamh Smyth: I thank Senator Carrigy for his comments and I thank our guests very much for attending. This is always such an interesting discussion to have and we are doing the players, the coaches and the spectators a service by having this conversation and keeping it going because, as Ms O'Connor said at the very beginning, this is a culture shift which has been allowed to happen in the past and we are...

Niamh Smyth: I thank all the ladies for joining us today. They are all very welcome, as are my colleagues. Our second session today is with representatives from Screen Ireland, the Arts Council and Creative Europe Desk Ireland. We are going to have a round-table discussion on Ireland in a creative Europe. This, of course, is on the back of the recent Europe Day, so it is a very exciting and...

Niamh Smyth: My apologies again for being absent for our guests' initial presentations. I have tried to quickly catch up. This is so exciting. Much of it is new to me. I want to focus on promoting the work our guests do and engaging with organisations. I am looking at the map produced by Europa Cinemas, which is really interesting. Sadly, I do not see too much happening in the Border area from which...

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Creative Europe Programme 2021-2027: Discussion (11 May 2022)

Niamh Smyth: I was endorsing the remarks of Deputy Christopher O'Sullivan regarding to where companies can go to get that infrastructure funding in place. I acknowledge what Ms Tunney stated in respect of INTERREG. In my area, we also had the avenue or opportunity of PEACE funding, which sometimes can do that too. My third question was on education. How do our guests promote the work they do? How...

Niamh Smyth: Is it also planting the seed of how important Europe is?

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Creative Europe Programme 2021-2027: Discussion (11 May 2022)

Niamh Smyth: On that point, I have spent months as part of the Conference on the Future of Europe in Strasbourg. That is from where I am coming. The worrying part is that young people may feel disconnected from the whole European project and not realise the benefit that being part of Europe is for us. From what our guests are telling me - it is all news to me - there is significant opportunity in what...

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Creative Europe Programme 2021-2027: Discussion (11 May 2022)

Niamh Smyth: When Creative Europe is delivering projects such as the one in west Cork to which reference was made, how much emphasis is given to the organisations that are delivering in terms of emphasising that this is part of a bigger picture of a creative Europe and nurturing that ethos? This is with regard to the concept that this is not just another music project we are part of, but that it is a very...
