Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: This has been very interesting. Dr. McDonagh hit the nail on the head when she said that it is all about the lack of implementation. To be quite honest, we have a great amount of reports, committees and commissions of investigation but, looking at it through the lens of the people from the Traveller community for whom I work and whom I represent, there has been very little in the nature of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Is it part of the law under which IHREC operates for it to make recommendations to government relating to the desirable changes in the law to ensure equality in our society? Presumably, that power is in the Act.

Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am not saying that but IHREC could consider the failure of Part 8 and make a recommendation to the Government within the law on the basis that Part 8 is being used in a discriminatory fashion.

Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: There is a saying in Irish - "tá a fhios ag madraí an bhaile." The dogs in the street know how Part 8 is being used. I am suggesting publicly in this committee that IHREC investigate immediately whether Part 8 is being used in this way. It is interesting that FLAC mentioned this as well. I suggest that IHREC investigate the incidence of Part 8 refusals by councils of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: With no disrespect, looking at the evidence of all the different groups in society and other evidence, it appears the group most discriminated against and, therefore, the one that should be at the top of the pile with the most attention given to it is the Travelling community.

Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I would like to clarify what I said. In no way did I say individual Travellers should not have access to legal services or that I would not help them to access legal services. I am saying they should not have to do so in many cases. I am helping people every day. The hierarchy of procedures, which would normally involve making an application, getting refused, taking a review, appealing,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community: Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jul 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: When I talk about apartheid, I am talking about how settled communities separate themselves from Travellers. In other words, and to go back on the figures I gave, settled people do not want Travellers living next door, marrying into their families and so on. That is what apartheid is. It is the settled people who manifest apartheid because they do not want friendships and so on with...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Gabhaim buíochas leis na finnéithe as an gcur i láthair agus as an aighneacht a chur ar fáil roimh ré dúinn. Tá mé ag iarraidh an córas atá ann a thuiscint, go mór mór ó thaobh an iarratasóra a dhéanfadh iarratas ar phost neamhspeisialta sa státseirbhís. Tá grád ginearálta ann agus, de...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ní hí sin an cheist. Tá sí maidir le duine a cheaptar as - appointed out of - an bpainéal Gaeilge. Tugtar an painéal dátheangach ar an gceann eile an ea?

Éamon Ó Cuív: Má chuirtear isteach ar an bpainéal Béarla, is painéal dhátheangach é agus is féidir le duine a rá gur mhaith leis nó lei post le Gaeilge.

Éamon Ó Cuív: Bheadh sé dodhéanta don státseirbhís i gcoitinne atá ag obair trí Ghaeilge a fheidhmiú gan Bhéarla mar bíonn sí ag plé le daoine eile nach bhfuil Gaeilge acu. Bíonn an Dr. Mac Cormaic, mar shampla, ag plé le daoine i mBéarla an t-am uilig. Gach uile duine sa státseirbhís a phléitear cúrsaí i...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Dá gcuirfinn iarratas isteach sa státseirbhís, d’fhéadfainn a rá cén fáth go shéanfainn an Béarla atá agam, mar tá sé agam. Cén fáth nach gcuirfinn isteach ar an bpainéal dátheangach ina mbeinn dhá oiread níos fearr as mar ní bheinn ag ligean orm féin nach bhfuil Béarla agam?...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá ceist dheireanach agam. Dúirt Rob O’Toole go bhfuil painéal dátheangach ann do dhaoine a bhfuil Gaeilge agus Béarla acu. Glacaim leis go bhfuil na scrúduithe go léir i mBéarla. Mar sin, tástálann PAS go maith go bhfuil Béarla acu, ach dúirt an finné nach ndéantar aon seiceáil ar Ghaeilge na...
