Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Plean Straitéiseach Údarás na Gaeltachta 2018 - 2020: Ionadaithe ó Údarás na Gaeltachta (14 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Gabhairm míle buíochas don Uasal Ó hÉanaigh as an méid a chuir sé faoinár mbráid. Tá sé go maith go bhfuil sé leagtha síos agus go bhfuil ardú éigin ag tarlú don mbuiséad mar tá dúshlán mór roimh an Údarás agus tá éacht déanta aige go dtí seo thar na blianta go...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Bíonn fadhb go rialta.

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Ní raibh an fhadhb seo ann le déanaí ach bhí sí ann roimhe.

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Ní hea, ag an gcoiste seo. B'fhéidir go bhfuil dhá sheomra ann anois ach le blianta ní raibh ach seomra coiste amháin ina raibh áiseanna chun aistriúchán a dhéanamh. Bhí fadhb roimhe seo.

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: No, bhí fadhb leis an gcóras fuaime. Ba chóir go mbeadh sé ag obair. Cuireadh a lán airgid ann.

An Bille um an Ochtú Leasú is Tríocha ar an mBunreacht (Neodracht), 2018: An Chéad Chéim - Thirty-Eighth Amendment of the Constitution (Neutrality) Bill 2018: First Stage (13 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Mar a dúirt an Teachta Crowe, chuir mé an Bille céanna seo faoi bhráid na Dála roinnt uaireanta roimhe seo cheana féin ach go dtí seo níor glacadh leis in ainneoin tacaíocht tromlach muintir na hÉireann chun neodracht na tíre a shoiléiriú i mBunreacht an Stáit. Ní thuigim an eagla atá ag na páirtithe...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Tairgim: "Go dtógfar an Bille in am Comhaltaí Príobháideacha." I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I understand the logic behind what the Minister of State has said. It was never intended to be in the gift of one party or another to be able to appoint a person to a board. The appointments could be made by way of a lottery of those in a council who were interested who could serve for a single term only and so on. It does not have to be political. Local authority members are not paid at...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I move amendment No. 9:In page 18, line 9, after "Children's Health Ireland" to insert "and its subsidiaries". These amendments seek to ensure subsidiaries of Children's Health Ireland will be subject to the oversight of the Committee of Public Accounts and the Comptroller and Auditor General. All too often, there is little or no public accountability by subsidiaries of State companies or...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: It is a pity the Minister of State is not accepting the amendments, particularly in the light of how subsidiaries and organisations that have received State funding, albeit not always directly but through a State agency, have in the past avoided accounting in full for how funding was spent. I accept that the intention is that all of the companies are to be audited under the standard rules,...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I move amendment No. 10:In page 18, line 11, after "Children's Health Ireland" to insert "and its subsidiaries".

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: That is a pity. I believed the Minister of State might think about the amendments again, in particular amendment No. 4, which deals with borrowing. I cannot and should not be able to foresee a situation where a children's hospital would be required to borrow to meet its day-to-day expenditure. It would be a sad day for Ireland if that were to be the case. However, we can all see the...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I move amendment No. 4:In page 9, line 4, to delete “or current”.

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I move amendment No. 6:In page 15, line 31, to delete “or a local authority”. Amendments Nos. 6 to 8, inclusive, were tied to amendment No. 5, in the name of Deputy Louise O'Reilly, which has been ruled out of order in a bizarre manner, although we will not go into it. The intention of the four amendments was to try to ensure representatives of workers, patients and Dublin City...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I move amendment No. 2:In page 7, line 4, after "health" where it secondly occurs, to insert ", mental health".

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I move amendment No. 3:In page 8, to delete lines 24 to 26. The reason I have included amendment No. 3 is that I believe this subsection is questionable in some way. It exemplifies what is often called "mission creep", that is, a gradual shift in objectives which often results in unplanned changes in the longer term. I do not see why Children's Health Ireland would need to acquire, hold or...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I had intended to speak to amendment No. 2 in my first contribution. It would be illogical in this day and age not to mention mental health. The proposal in the amendment does not give rise to an extra cost or present a major difficulty. There is an acknowledgement that mental health falls under health in general. However, given the scale of the issues involved and the fact that, as the...

Children's Health Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report and Final Stages (7 Nov 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Does the Minister of State wish to reply?
