Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Autism Support Services (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I know the Minister of State, Deputy English, is just here to pass on the message and that he has no direct responsibility, but the message follows the normal pattern. Three quarters of it explains what we know already and then we get to the meat of it, but really there is no meat there. One of the more shocking things the Minister of State said is that the 2019 HSE national service plan...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Autism Support Services (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I support my colleague regarding the Galway Autism Partnership. It is a community charity. In many cases voluntary bodies that receive State money provide very good value for that money. They often collect money also. Given the whole ethos of volunteerism behind the partnership, it gives a very good service. When considering this particular organisation, we must understand the nature of...

Wildlife (Amendment) Bill 2016: Report and Final Stages (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I congratulate Deputy Fitzmaurice. There was a long battle going on over this issue even when we were in government. It has been brought to a relatively satisfactory conclusion within the confines of EU law. I thank the Ministers, Deputies Humphreys and Madigan, and the Minister of State, Deputy Kyne. It is very appropriate that three Galway Deputies have been mainly involved in this...

Wildlife (Amendment) Bill 2016: Report and Final Stages (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: They arrived subsequently, but they have not been involved in the debate. I am very careful with the wording.

Wildlife (Amendment) Bill 2016: Report and Final Stages (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am a Dub as well, when it suits. This has had a major impact, particularly in east Galway. I believe it will lead to much better community relations. I believe it will lead to better conservation. The Minister of State represents the same constituency as I do. I always believe that the best conservation is when the local population are brought into the conservation and support it....

Wildlife (Amendment) Bill 2016: Report and Final Stages (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I have only one question on the amendments. I might be on the wrong group. I understand that in one of the amendments, the Minister of State has included blanket bogs as well as raised bogs. This mechanism, convoluted and all as it is - there is a lot of process to be gone through before anything comes out of a natural heritage area, NHA - could be applied to a blanket bog in an...

Wildlife (Amendment) Bill 2016: Report and Final Stages (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I really appreciate this and think it is very good practice for Ministers at committees. Some are better than others. I think Deputy Heather Humphreys was Minister at the time. The current Minister, Deputy Madigan and the Minister of State are now accepting this change. As the Minister of State knows, there are some parts of controversial blanket bogs that people would argue should not be...

Local Government Bill 2018: Order for Report Stage (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Could I comment on a point of order?

Local Government Bill 2018: Order for Report Stage (13 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: It took a lot of us by surprise that the section was opposed on Committee Stage. Normally if something happens on Committee Stage, one can return to it on Report Stage. If that is the ruling of the House, we must accept it but if that is the way it is going to be - it was not taken out on Committee Stage so it could not be taken out on Report Stage - then that is a pity. We have to look at...

Éamon Ó Cuív: A Leas-Cheann Comhairle, ar an 14 Nollaig 1918, tharla eachtra a bhí thar a bheith stairiúil i stair na hÉireann. Ba é sin, ar bhonn 32 chontae vótáil an pobal ar son rialtas neamhspleách.
