Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Harbours and Piers (31 Mar 2022)

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...we all have of Ros an Mhíl is a multi-use port. The Minister saw for himself the fantastic space around it that is probably incomparable to any other port in the country. There is a lot of land in State ownership in a secluded area at the port. The vision we would have is: leisure, which is in the inner harbour; the ferry boats, which the Minister knows use it to great effect...

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...payment. That is all it pays them, net. Who is going to work 19 and a half hours a week for €20? There was a huge demand for the scheme before that because these are farmers who, no matter what they do with their land, will never be independent of some other off-farm income. That is just a fact. Before that, once people qualified, they got the full payment for the 19 and a...

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...big and rapid compact developments but if you do that too quickly in the Gaeltacht you will destroy the language. If you think of the linguistic reality and if you allow somebody to build on their family lands who is coming from an Irish speaking family then mamó and dadó are next door and the kids are running between the houses. They are all Irish speakers so you have a great...

Land and Conveyancing Law Reform Bill 2021 [Seanad]: Second Stage (17 Nov 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...courts are the ultimate dispute resolution process. I real when we started working on rural recreation, this matter came to the fore. Many people were positive about allowing recreational use across land but it took just one objection for people to be blocked from opening a recreational path. There would then be an argument that it had always been used in a particular way and so on....

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Local Authorities (21 Oct 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: ..., when one is driving there one has to go through another local authority to get to the western half of the county. It also stretches from Milltown and Dunmore in the north to Gort and Portumna in the south. A huge area of land is losing out, and it is creaking under the current system. I pay tribute to the staff who have soldiered on, but who are now at breaking point. The reality is...

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

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...services without difficulty. I totally agree with Mr. McCann about the issue of Part 8. There is another issue involved, which is the refusal of local authorities, in many cases, to transfer land to the likes of Cena. That requires the council itself, by which I mean the members, to make a decision. It is a major barrier to spending money, to getting things done and to progress. It...

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

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...is interesting that FLAC mentioned this as well. I suggest that IHREC investigate the incidence of Part 8 refusals by councils of recommendations relating to Traveller accommodation or where the sale of land is taking place to provide that accommodation through voluntary housing associations, which is an equal and new way of stymying implementation. If I am right, and I am 100% confident...

Common Agricultural Policy: Statements (16 Jun 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: .... Until we grasp that nettle in an international sense, we will have problems in agriculture. The Minister knows my view on convergence, which is that farmers with high output and very good land should make their money on price.

National Recovery and Resilience Plan: Statements (2 Jun 2021)

Éamon Ó Cuív: ...for people to live in, with no draughts and so on. In that connection, we need to look at how these projects are tendered.
