- Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): Roinn an Taoisigh (3 Dec 2019)
Catherine Connolly: Tuigim. Chuala mé é sin. Tá mé ag smaoineamh ar an straitéis 20 bliain don Ghaeilge. Is é príomhthéama na straitéise ná an Ghaeilge a normalú agus í a dhéanamh níos feiceálaí ar chuile leibhéal. Bhí coiste faoi leith i gceist leis an Taoiseach. Tuigim nach féidir lenár bhfinnéithe...
- Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): Roinn an Taoisigh (3 Dec 2019)
Catherine Connolly: Ní hamháin an suíomh ach is í an Ghaeilge go ginearálta féin atá i gceist. An dtuigeann an rúnaí cúnta an pointe atá i gceist agam? Is normalú atá i gceist leis. Is iontach go bhfuil seachtar sa Roinn ach ní féidir an Ghaeilge a normalú le seachtar, cé gur tús maith é.
- Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): Roinn an Taoisigh (3 Dec 2019)
Catherine Connolly: Bhí mé chun teacht ar ais air sin mar go bhfuil teipthe go huile is go hiomlán ar na scéimeanna teanga. Ní mise atá á rá sin ach an Coimisinéir Teanga féin. Is é sin an fáth go bhfuil gá le Bille nua. Faraor, tá ar an Roinn leanúint ar aghaidh leis an scéim atá ann ach tá teipthe go huile is go...

- Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): Roinn an Taoisigh (3 Dec 2019)
Catherine Connolly: Cad iad na dúshláin a fheiceann an tUasal Nic Coitir - críochnóidh mé leis an gceist seo - maidir leis an mBille nua agus an méid atá léite aici? Beidh earcaíocht 20% de na fostaithe nua i gceist agus caighdeáin i gceist seachas scéimeanna teanga.

- Joint Standing Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands: Seirbhísí trí Ghaeilge (Atógáil): Roinn an Taoisigh (3 Dec 2019)
Catherine Connolly: Tuigim é sin agus is é sin an fáth ar cuireadh an cheist ach tá gá le réamhsmaoineamh réamhghníomhach. Beidh rudaí ag athrú, b’fhéidir níos moille ná mar a cheapaimid, ach beidh. Dá réir, beidh ar gach Roinn, go háirithe Roinn an Taoisigh, breathnú ar na dúshláin agus ar na fadhbanna agus...

Catherine Connolly: Ar mhaith lenár bhfinnéithe aon rud eile a rá? Chuir mé cúpla ceist ach tá mé críochnaithe anois. Gabhaim buíochas mór leis an Uasal Munro agus leis an Uasal Nic Coitir. Bhí sé sin cabhrach dúinn. Tá na finnéithe chun teacht ar ais chugainn maidir le rud nó dhó, maidir leis na teachtaireachtaí i...

Catherine Connolly: 5. To ask the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment his policies in regard to the islands as requested by the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht with regard to the interdepartmental committee for island development; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [49601/19]
- Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Island Communities (28 Nov 2019)
Catherine Connolly: Is maith liom an focal “flaithiúlacht” agus tá súil agam go mbeidh flaithiúlacht i gceist maidir le freagra an Aire ó thaobh na n-oileán de. I welcome the Minister's use of the word "flaithiúlacht". I look forward to seeing it in action in his answer to my question on the islands. Can he clarify, following communication from the Department...
- Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Island Communities (28 Nov 2019)
Catherine Connolly: I am certainly aware of how magnificent the Aran Islands are in every way, from the point of view of geography and people. A policy on the islands has been drafted and each Department has been specifically asked about its actions. When was the Minister's Department contacted by the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht? What actions has it taken in regard to the islands? I ask...

Catherine Connolly: I have no difficulty with the tone of the Minister's comments and what he is saying. I ask for a more specific plan, which is what the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht asked for because of the vacuum and challenges facing the islands and the drop the population. This is urgent and all Departments must play a role. I welcome the broadband plan, but not the price of...

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (28 Nov 2019)
Catherine Connolly: I agree with the Chairman. I welcomed the letter and did so at the launch of the report. I welcome the clarification on the period 2005 to 2019. I urge members to read the documentation to have accurate information when there is talk of a surge in the numbers. There has not been a surge, as the graph illustrates. There is not much difference between numbers in the period from 2005 until...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (28 Nov 2019)
Catherine Connolly: I welcome this. I do not know how it ever included barring orders on an indicative list. Certainly if it has learned that much it is to be welcome. I welcome that barring orders have been removed. In the letter Ms Hanney states, "I wish to clarify that barring orders and decisions of the Family Law Courts are neither specifically requested nor required by SUSI". The letter then makes the...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (28 Nov 2019)
Catherine Connolly: I understand SUSI has to make a decision based on facts. The letter assures us that SUSI deals with the matters sensitively and that it complies with the legislation.
