Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Dátheangachas Suíomh Gréasáin na Comhairle Mhúinteoireachta: An Comhairle Mhúinteoireachta (26 Jun 2024)

Pearse Doherty: Níl mé ag iarraidh go ndéanfaidh Phil Fox é sin. B'fhéidir gur fágadh 300, 400 nó 2,000. Is é sin an cheist atá agam.

Pearse Doherty: Níor bhain an chomhairle aon duine den chlár mar go raibh sé go fóill ag obair ar an tairseach cé go raibh dualgas orthu athnuachan a dhéanamh go bliantúil agus nach raibh sé sin déanta. Bhí sé sin admhaithe taobh istigh den Chomhairle Mhúinteoireachta gur chaith sí go holc leis na daoine a bhí ag iarraidh clárú...

Pearse Doherty: Is é an pointe ná cén fáth gur choinnigh an chomhairle daoine ar an gclár nuair a bhí dualgas ar na daoine trí rialacha an chomhairle féin go gcaithfidh siad clárú go bliantúil? An t-aon fáth go dtiocfadh leis an gcomhairle daoine a choinneáil ar an gclár ná go raibh sé intuigthe ag an gComhairle...

International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Motion (Resumed) (25 Jun 2024)

Pearse Doherty: What we are debating today is whether Ireland should opt in fully and wholesale to the EU migration pact. Sinn Féin's position is crystal clear and it is that we should not. It is not in Ireland's interest. Ireland and Europe have seen a significant increase in migration rates for a number of years. In 2019 the number of people applying for international protection in the State was...

Pearse Doherty: I welcome the IFAC representatives to the committee. I appreciate their attendance and their report, which is invaluable to our considerations. The national 5% spending rule was referenced, but this is not a national rule. It is a rule of three political parties, which does not exist in law, that they have never ever met. I would like it to be a national rule enshrined in law but it is...
