Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: An Fochoiste um an Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge 2010-2030 agus Rudaí Gaolmhara: Breathnú ar Scéim Ghinearálta Bhille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2014: Díospóireacht (27 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Sea, déanaimid iarracht sin a dhéanamh, ach ní dhéanann a lán daoine anseo iarracht an Ghaeilge a labhairt ná a chur chun cinn. Ach tá gach duine sa Fhrainc in ann an Fhraincis a labhairt. Níl gach duine in Éirinn in ann an Ghaeilge a labhairt. Ba cheart dúinn bheith real. Let it be achievable. Maidir leis na comharthaí bóthar,...

Caít Keane: Ceapaim gur maith an rud é an dá theanga, Gaeilge agus Béarla, a chur ar na comharthaí.

Caít Keane: Táimid ar an aon intinn mar sin, mar sin mar a mhol mise nuair a bhí an Roinn anseo.

Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: An Fochoiste um an Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge 2010-2030 agus Rudaí Gaolmhara: Breathnú ar Scéim Ghinearálta Bhille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2014: Díospóireacht (27 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Is dóigh liom go mbeadh cluasa dóite ar John Tierney dá mbeadh sé ag éisteacht linn agus muid ag labhairt faoi na ainmneacha a dtugann muid dár gcórais nua poiblí. Deirtear san Acht gur cóir go mbeadh ainm Gaelach ar aon chóras nua, ar nós Uisce Éireann. Tá na daoine cearta anseo inniu chun an aidhm seo a chur chun cinn....

Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: An Fochoiste um an Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge 2010-2030 agus Rudaí Gaolmhara: Breathnú ar Scéim Ghinearálta Bhille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2014: Díospóireacht (27 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Cuirim fáilte roimh chách anseo inniu. Go háirithe, ba mhaith liom fáilte a chur roimh an gCoimisinéir Teanga nua, Rónán Ó Domhnaill. Guím rath ar an obair atá á dhéanamh san oifig sin agus go n-éirí an t-ádh leis an gcoimisinéir. Tá a lán ráite ag na finnéithe agus tá neart...

Caít Keane: Má chuireann tú an leagan Gaeilge isteach sa GPS ní thuigeann sé thú. Tá sin an-tábhachtach. Ba cheart go mbéadh sé i nGaeilge agus i mBéarla ar mhaithe leis na tourists.

Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: An Fochoiste um an Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge 2010-2030 agus Rudaí Gaolmhara: Breathnú ar Scéim Ghinearálta Bhille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2014: Díospóireacht (27 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Tá sé an-tábhachtach freisin an comhoibriú Thuaidh Theas a chur chun cinn. Dhein mé dearmad a rá gur éist muid leis an bpobal maidir le neamhspleáchas an Choimisinéara Teanga, agus molaim é sin freisin.

Caít Keane: Tá sé go hiontach a bheith ag éisteacht leis na daoine ansin a bhfuil an Ghaeilge go líofa agus go nádúrtha acu. Is iontach an rud é sin agus ní chloisimíd í ach go huaireanta anois. Bím i gCluain Dolcáin agus i dTamhlacht, áit a bhfuil Gaeltacht nua. Ba cheart na ceantair sin a chur síos mar Ghaeltacht nua agus na...

Seanad: Order of Business (15 May 2014)

Caít Keane: I would like to remember the people in Soma, Turkey - those trapped in the mine and dead. There are 182 people and the figure is increasing. The House should write a letter to the embassy to show that we are thinking about it. Health and safety comes into this matter. A report published by the World Health Organisation yesterday revealed that Ireland has the second-highest rate of binge...

Seanad: Order of Business (15 May 2014)

Caít Keane: The report refers to 62% of male drinkers aged over 15 and 31% of female drinkers. We must look at the effect of normalisation and acceptance of binge drinking and we must look at an education process. It is no harm to put it on the agenda, ask the Minister to come to the Chamber and ask where is the public health (alcohol) Bill. A health impact study is being done by the Minister and is...

Seanad: Seanad Electoral (Panel Members) (Amendment) Bill 2014: Second Stage (14 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Wishful thinking.

Seanad: Seanad Electoral (Panel Members) (Amendment) Bill 2014: Second Stage (14 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire Stáit go dtí an Teach. I thank Senator Barrett for the statement he delivered from the father, or prince, of the House, Senator David Norris. I wish him well in his recovery. I compliment Senator Barrett on keeping the debate alive by putting this proposal on the agenda today. The question of when the Seanad franchise will be extended has been...

Seanad: Abduction of Nigerian Children: Motion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: This is an important debate. As the time is limited and Senator van Turnhout raised so many issues-----

Seanad: Abduction of Nigerian Children: Motion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Yes, with Senator Naughton. It will be two and a half minutes each.

Seanad: Abduction of Nigerian Children: Motion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: There is much that we could discuss, but it would be better to keep today focused on what was raised on the Order of Business, namely, the children's kidnapping and how to get them released as speedily as possible. "Boko Haram" means "Western education is forbidden". The girls were in school, which is every girl's right even if Boko Haram disagrees. Senator Walsh went into the detail, so I...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: General Scheme of Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Dissolution) Bill 2014: Discussion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: I would like to hear from both of them.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: General Scheme of Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Dissolution) Bill 2014: Discussion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: That is a problem we must address in any planning proposals. The council is the planning agent for the area. Projects should be planning-led, not developer-led, as the latter is what caused us to go down the Swanee previously. In that context, I am not saying it applies to us or even to the council, but throughout Ireland we saw many developer-led projects. This must be project-led and...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: General Scheme of Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Dissolution) Bill 2014: Discussion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: That is not the question I asked. That is the process of the SDZ.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: General Scheme of Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Dissolution) Bill 2014: Discussion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: Everybody goes through that process. The question I asked related to the dissolution of the authority. There is still an interim authority there holding the hand of Dublin City Council. Every SDZ goes through, and that one would have gone through without a board because it is statutorily laid down how the SDZs are done and that procedure would have been followed. The question I was asking...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht: General Scheme of Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Dissolution) Bill 2014: Discussion (13 May 2014)

Caít Keane: I welcome our guests. The docklands is a prime area of Dublin and we must ensure that its potential is exploited for the benefit of the entire city. It is taking quite some time to dissolve the Dublin Docklands Development Authority. Its dissolution was first mooted in 2012 and I would have thought that it would have been signed, sealed and delivered by this point. There are probably good...
