Seanad: Thirtieth Amendment of the Constitution (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union) Bill 2012: Second Stage (23 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I ask the Chair to rule. In my view that statement was out of kilter with the previous tone of the debate and the Senator is really lowering the tone with his contribution.

Seanad: Garda Deployment (18 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Go raibh míle maith agat. Cuirim céad fáilte roimh an Aire agus tá áthas orm go bhfuil sé liom anseo. Is iontach an rud an tAire sinsearach a fháil le freagra a thabhairt ar cheisteanna. Ceist réasúnta, simplí í seo maidir le cúrsaí póilíneachta agus gardaí sna ceantair Gaeltachta. Táim ag iarraidh a fháil amach líon na ngardaí atá ag feidhmiú sna stáisiúin garda...

Seanad: Garda Deployment (18 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as ucht an freagra ata tugtha aige. Ní cosúil go bhfuil an tábla a luaigh sé leis an bhfreagra. The table mentioned by the Minister is not with the answer but I am sure it can be forwarded in due course. I certainly welcome the Minister's response and I commend the Garda Síochána as I know from my dealings with it that it makes a huge effort with regard...

Seanad: Order of Business (18 Apr 2012)

Seanad: Order of Business (18 Apr 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Is dóigh gur ceart dom, tar éis an méid atá ráite ag mo chomhleacaí an Seanadóir Ó Maoláin, iarratas a dhéanamh go dtabharfaí cuireadh don Chéad Aire agus don Leas-Chéad Aire sa Tuaisceart teacht ar chuairt anseo, mar is léir fós go bhfuil go leor míthuisceana ann maidir leis an chaoi a bhfuil an stát á riaradh thuas ansin. As part of the programme of bringing guest...

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Ba mhaith liom nóiméad de mo chuid ama a roinnt leis an Seanadóir Healy Eames.

Seanad: Schools Building Projects (29 Mar 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: Tuigim go bhfuil an Aire Stáit gnóthach tráthnóna. Tá mé an-bhuíoch gur fhan sé chun freagra a thabhairt ar an gceist seo, a bhaineann le Gaelscoil Mhic Amhlaigh i gCnoc na Cathrach sa Ghaillimh. Ceapaim go bhfuil eolas maith ag an Aire Stáit ar an scoil áirithe seo. Tá iontas agus díomá ar daltaí agus bord bainistíochta na scoile - agus ag duine ar bith a bhfuil baint acu...

Seanad: Schools Building Projects (29 Mar 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: The reply appears to contradict a reply I received last week regarding Clifden community school, in which I was told the reason the school was not getting funding was a drop in the demographic. There is a demographic increase in the Cnoc na Cathrach area. The Minister of State said as much in his reply, so the decision does not make much sense. To build the extension to Gaelscoil Mhic...

Seanad: Order of Business (29 Mar 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: In fairness, the Leader said he would come back to us on it on Tuesday. Where is the urgency on this issue? When the issue of the prayer that opens our daily proceedings was raised, we had a swift debate, which I welcomed, but we have not had a debate or an indication regarding a debate on the Mahon tribunal report, which has serious ramifications for political life. I propose an amendment...

Seanad: Order of Business (29 Mar 2012)

Trevor Ó Clochartaigh: I have moved an amendment to the Order of Business that we discuss this report today. This is a serious amendment. We should stop beating around the bush and avoiding this issue. This hugely important issue deserves to be debated in the Upper House.
