Other Questions: Heritage Centres (21 Jun 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I am not certain that it was the first parliament. My father wrote a book about parlaimint na mban, or the women's parliament. I must check the date to find out whether the Minister is correct. On a more serious note, the agreement to use this venue for ten years was reached four and a half years ago. Why did it take so long to get this up and running? On the day the doors open, will we...

Éamon Ó Cuív: The first meeting of the First Dáil, the lasting effect of which we are still talking about almost 100 years later, was organised in less than two months. The timescale was even shorter than I thought it was when I raised this matter with the Minister previously. It seems extraordinary that the venture now coming on stream was announced in February 2014, which was almost four and a...

Other Questions: Film Industry (21 Jun 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Just to satisfy my idle curiosity, I ask the Minister to explain why the Irish and English versions of the name are totally different. Screen Ireland is translated as "Fís Éireann" but the word "fís" means "vision", while the Irish for the word "screen" is "scáileán". Why does this anomaly with regard to the name exist? Which word more truly reflects the nature of...

Other Questions: Film Industry (21 Jun 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Given that we are talking about the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, I presume that Fís Éireann was the original name which was translated into English and not the other way around. It baffles me as to why, having called it Fís Éireann, the Department did not call it Vision Ireland but my puzzlement will continue. Given the price of residential land in the...

Éamon Ó Cuív: An arrangement was arrived at with the Bank of Ireland on College Green in Dublin, under which the State would be given the use of a facility for ten years to host exhibitions. When will this happen because it has been a long time coming?

Other Questions: Commemorative Events (21 Jun 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I have consistently been asking the Minister questions about the all-party committee that was advising on the commemorations and she keeps giving the response that it will happen shortly and that she is waiting for nominations. The various groups were asked to make those nominations six or eight months ago, if not longer. Surely it is time to tell them that the train is leaving the station...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ardmore Studios is a very strategic facility. It was sold recently and I understand the Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation was involved. Was the Minister consulted about the sale and were concerns expressed about the vulnerability of Ardmore's future as a studio?

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Limistéir Pleanála Teanga (21 Jun 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Níl fhios agam ar léigh an tAire Stáit an cheist. An cheist a bhí ann ná cad iad líon na bpleananna teanga atá á gur i bhfeidhm i mbliana taobh istigh nó taobh amuigh den Ghaeltacht. Thug an tAire Stáit freagra, nach mór, ar an gcuid sin den cheist. Níl aon bhaint aige leis an airgead atá ceadaithe do rudaí eile leis an...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Bunaithe ar an meán de €150,000, má mhéadaíonn duine €150,000 - agus mar a d'admhaigh an tAire féin, níl €150,000 i gceist le cuid acu - faoi 13, ní bhfaighidh duine €2.67 milliún. Tá go leor rudaí eile clúdaithe faoin gceannteideal pleanála teanga. I gcónaí riamh, bhí Aire na Gaeltachta...
