Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Departmental Expenditure (8 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: The question relates to continued underspend in the Department even against its own profile which is skewed towards the end of the year and which is bad practice. Even allowing for that, however, there is a significant underspend in the Department. Will the Minister give us the up-to-date situation on what he proposes to do about it?

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Departmental Expenditure (8 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Will the Minister explain why, according to the Exchequer returns, the expenditure on the current side is €8 million behind profile at the end of November? The Minister said he has reallocated money and I saw an announcement on local improvement scheme, LIS, roads, but, as of yesterday, the local authorities have not received formal notification. These local authorities obviously...

Written Answers — Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Fish Quotas (8 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: 191. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason Fisheries Management Notice No. 72 of 2018 was only published on 31 October 2018 in view of the fact that it came into force on 2 November 2018 thus only giving a few days to fishermen pull their pots in inclement weather; the scientific basis on which the order is based; the estimated number of boats that will be...

Éamon Ó Cuív: 250. To ask the Minister for Rural and Community Development an raibh aon chomhráite aige lena a chomh-Aire, an tAire Tithíochta, Pleanála agus Rialtais Áitiúil, maidir le síneadh a chur le scéimeanna séarchais tuaithe d’fhonn tuilleadh tithe a cheangal leis na scéimeanna atá ann i láthair na huaire; an raibh aon phlé aige...

Apprenticeships: Motion [Private Members] (7 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: This country never seems to be able to anticipate what is foreseeable and to do anything about it. What I find extraordinary is that people did not accept that what happened in terms of the downturn was akin to a bungee jump in that the further down the building industry went the higher up it had to jump. We now have a massive accumulation of under-performance in terms of building houses...

Water Services: Motion [Private Members] (6 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am delighted to be able to say a few words on the motion. I compliment the rural alliance on tabling a motion that goes to the practicalities of people's lives.

Water Services: Motion [Private Members] (6 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I thought you were all aligned to each other. It does not matter, the group can take the credit for the motion. I will focus briefly on three issues. I tabled a question to Irish Water on providing sewerage services to towns and villages, for example, Kilronan on the Aran Islands, that urgently need a sewerage system. I was told that it must be done on a purely commercial basis. If that...

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Plean Gníomhaíochta 2018-2022 de Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge: An tAire Stáit ag an Roinn Cultúir, Oidhreachta agus Gaeltachta (Atógáil) (6 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Gabh mo leithscéal ach bhí mé ag cruinniú eile. Níl i gceist agam mórán moille a choinneáil ar an gcruinniú agus i ndáiríre an díomá is mó atá orm na níl neart ar bith ag an Aire air mar ní raibh sé sa Roinn seo. Bhí sé sa Roinn a fuair an t-airgead. Bhí an Roinn Forbartha Tuaithe...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá sé alright a bheith go breá sásta ach glacaim leis go ndeachaigh an dá Aire isteach ag troid ar son an airgid agus tháinig duine amháin amach le níos mó airgead agus go dtí seo níl an Roinn sin in ann an t-airgead a tugadh dóibh le cúpla bliain anuas a chaitheamh. Fós faghainn an Roinn sin maoin mór airgead agus...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Is é an fáth ná gur fágadh an cheist mar a bhí sé. Má cuimhníonn an tAire Stáit ar cheithre cinn de na ceisteanna, níl duine in ann comparáid a dhéanamh ach bhí an cheist mar an céanna in 2006, 2011 agus 2016. Is cuimhin liom nuair a tharla sé in 2011 agus nuair a bhí an rud á réiteach i 2009, cuireadh...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Nach mbeadh sé níos fearr teacht ar chomhréiteach nach mbeadh cead ag Údarás na Gaeltachta dul chuig an gciste sin agus €5 milliún a thabhairt dó agus a rá leo a ghnóthaí féin a dhéanamh mar tá sé craiceáilte go mbeadh eagraíochtaí Stáit ag déanamh iarratas mar sin ar eagraíochtaí...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá €12 milliún an-bheag.

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Plean Gníomhaíochta 2018-2022 de Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge: An tAire Stáit ag an Roinn Cultúir, Oidhreachta agus Gaeltachta (Atógáil) (6 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Is é an léamh atá agamsa air seo ná nach bhfuil bá ar bith ón Aire Airgeadais don Ghaeltacht. Bhíodh an t-údarás ag fáil idir €20 milliún agus €25 milliún.

Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Plean Gníomhaíochta 2018-2022 de Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge: An tAire Stáit ag an Roinn Cultúir, Oidhreachta agus Gaeltachta (Atógáil) (6 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá sé sin ceart go leor ach, ag an am céanna, nach bhfuil sé aisteach go raibh an Aire Airgeadais in ann géilleadh d’éileamh ar €55 milliún do Roinn nach bhfuil ag caitheamh a chuid airgead agus ní raibh sé in ann géilleadh d’éileamh idir €4 milliún agus €5 milliún le haghaidh Údarás...
