Seanad: Bille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú), 2019: Céim an Choiste - Official Languages (Amendment) Bill 2019: Committee Stage (24 Nov 2021)

Jack Chambers: Baineann leasuithe Uimh. 29 agus 30 le chéile toisc go bhfuil siad ar an ábhar céanna. Tar éis dom féachaint ar leasú Uimh. 29 sa chomhthéacs seo, táim muiníneach go bhfuil an fhoclaíocht mar atá sé sásúil chun an bhrí atá i gceist a chur trasna. Sílim go bhféadfadh míthuiscint a bheith ann faoi...

Jack Chambers: Leagtar amach feidhmeanna an Choimisinéara Teanga in alt 21 den phríomh-Acht. Rinne mé cur síos ar na príomhdhualgais atá ag an gCoimisinéir Teanga i bhfreagra níos luaithe. Anuas ar sin, tar éis dul i mbun comhairliúcháin le hOifig an Choimisinéara Teanga agus tuairimí an choimisinéara agus a chuid oifigeach a...

Jack Chambers: Mar a luaigh mé nuair a labhair mé faoi leasú Uimh. 31 níos túisce, leagtar amach feidhmeanna an choimisinéara in alt 21 den phríomh-Acht. Tá na príomh-phointí céanna ábhartha don leasú seo agus mar sin táim den tuairim nach bhfuil an leasú seo ag teastáil. Tá an-chuid plé déanta againn ar...

Seanad: Bille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú), 2019: Céim an Choiste - Official Languages (Amendment) Bill 2019: Committee Stage (24 Nov 2021)

Jack Chambers: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Seanadóir as an moladh seo a chur ar aghaidh ach ní bheidh mé ag glacadh leis an leasú seo. Mar is eol don Teach, tá plé leanúnach ar bun idir oifigigh mo Roinne agus oifigigh ón Roinn Tithíochta, Rialtais Áitiúil agus Oidhreachta. Is ceist casta í seo ach táim muiníneach go mbeidh dul chun...

Seanad: Bille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú), 2019: Céim an Choiste - Official Languages (Amendment) Bill 2019: Committee Stage (24 Nov 2021)

Jack Chambers: Ní bheidh mé ag glacadh leis an leasú seo mar nach dtagann sé faoi scóip an Achta agus ní bheidh sé cuí é a chur san áireamh sa reachtaíocht seo. Bhí plé agam leis na bainc tamall ó shin nuair a ceapadh sa ról seo mé agus bhí na bainc báúil go maith don Ghaeilge. Táim lánchinnte go...

Seanad: Bille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú), 2019: Céim an Choiste - Official Languages (Amendment) Bill 2019: Committee Stage (24 Nov 2021)

Jack Chambers: Mar aon le leasú Uimh. 36, ní bheidh mé ag glacadh leis. Mar atá sé, tá dualgas reachtúil ag an gCoimisinéir Teanga faoi Acht an Gharda Síochána, 2005 gardaí atá líofa i nGaeilge a chur ar dualgas sa Ghaeltacht a oiread agus atá é sin indéanta. Tuigtear dom go bhfuil céimeanna á dtógáil ag An...

Seanad: Bille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú), 2019: Céim an Choiste - Official Languages (Amendment) Bill 2019: Committee Stage (24 Nov 2021)

Jack Chambers: Táim buíoch don Seanadóir Kyne as ucht an leasaithe seo ach ní bheidh mé ag glacadh leis. Ní bheidh mé ag lua go sonrach sa reachtaíocht gur duine ag grád príomhoifigigh cúnta a bheidh ceaptha sa ról atá luaite ag an gcoiste comhairleach mar nach mbeadh sé cuí a leithéid a shonrú.Is féidir liom a...

Jack Chambers: Ní bheidh mé ag glacadh leis an leasú toisc nach dtagann sé faoi scóip an Bhille.Mar sin ní bheidh sé cuí é seo a chur san áireamh. Cé nach bhfuil sé iomlán soiléir céard atá i gceist ag an Seanadóir anseo, glacaim leis go bhfuil sé ag déanamh tagairt do chóras ainmniúcháin...

Jack Chambers: Aontaím le go leor atá ráite ag na Seanadóirí ach is féidir liom a dheimhniú go leanfar leis an gceist seo sa phlean náisiúnta atá leagtha amach sa Bhille. Is é sin an próiseas trína mbeimid ag déanamh go leor rudaí sa phlean náisiúnta atá leagtha amach.

Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Key Priorities and Legislation of the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media: Discussion (24 Nov 2021)

Jack Chambers: As members will be aware, another committee is dealing with the Gaeltacht element of my responsibilities and, therefore, I will limit my comments to matters related to sport. Our immediate priority will be to safely accommodate sporting events, sporting organisations and high performance athletes, while continuing to take into account the prevailing public health advice. The Department will...

Jack Chambers: We are involved in establishing a bid board with the British Government and the respective football associations. We have increased the budgetary allocation for major events year on year, and approximately €500,000 has been spent to date. I will confirm that later in the meeting. As part of the bidding process, there will be an assessment of the required stadia in Ireland. On a...

If there is a recommendation on the upgrading of existing infrastructure following the assessment, that will also be part of it. We are at an early stage, and the bid board is being finalised.
