Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: An mbeidh moltaí á ndéanamh ag oifig an choimisinéara ó thaobh an céatadán a athrú? Tá céatadán i gceist ó thaobh caiteachais.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Sílim gur ceann de na bealaí is dearfaí chun an Ghaeilge a normalú ná í a fheiceáil agus a chloisteáil mar sin. Tá neart deiseanna ann chun é sin a mhéadú. Táim ag breathnú ar an gclog. Tá obair eile ar siúl ag an oifig ó thaobh éileamh ar iarbhunscoileanna. An féidir tuilleadh a rá faoi sin?

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Tá cearta teanga láidre ansin.

Catherine Connolly: Níl aon leanúnachas i gceist.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Tá sé sin an-tábhachtach, mar is eol dúinn. Bhí neart dreamanna os ár gcomhair agus agóidí taobh amuigh den Dáil ó thaobh easpa cearta teanga, an t-éileamh atá ann, agus tá sé sin soiléir. An mbeidh tuarascáil á foilsiú ag an oifig?

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Is maith an rud é sin a chloisteáil. Níl aon amhras ar an gcoimisinéir ach go bhfuil cearta teanga ann faoin Acht Oideachais ó thaobh na Gaeilge de.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Ag dul ar ais go dtí an tuarascáil é féin, tá méadú ar líon na ngearán arís i mbliana. Tugaim suntas do Chomhairle Cathrach na Gaillimhe, faraor, agus do Chomhairle Contae na Gaillimhe. Ní hamháin nár chuir siad cáipéisí ar fáil i nGaeilge mar ba chóir dóibh ach, chomh maith leis sin, níor...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Tá sé deacair é sin a chloisteáil ó thaobh dhá údarás atá lonnaithe sa Ghaeltacht. Tá ceann amháin ag freastal ar an nGaeltacht agus is cathair dhátheangach í cathair na Gaillimhe. Tá athrú meoin ag teastáil ach tá easpa tuisceana freisin a théann an-domhain go gceapann siad gur rud roghnach é seo...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Go raibh maith ag an gcoimisinéir. Mar fhocal scoir agus mar cheist dheireanach, tá folúntas in Oifig an Choimisinéara faoi láthair agus tá sé ráite ag an gcoimisinéir go bhfuil difríocht idir a oifig agus oifigí ombudsman eile. Is féidir leo foireann bhreise a earcú ach ní féidir le hOifig an Choimisinéara...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: International Protection (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: I thank the Minister for that clarification. I realise and openly acknowledge that the Minister inherited this issue. However, we have known for a very long time that direct provision does not work. It isolates people, creates a stigma and is inhuman. The High Court recently ruled in August of this year that the State had utterly failed in its duty to provide for basic needs, including...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: International Protection (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Can the Minister provide context on what State-owned facilities we will have, when we will have them and what are the numbers we are talking about? Unfortunately, the Minister referred to the Peter McVerry Trust, which leaves serious questions to be answered and there are ongoing investigations into it. We are also at this stage now because the successive Governments has failed to deal with...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: International Protection (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: My question is very specific. I am asking for an update on the status of the State-owned reception and integration centres due to accommodate people coming to our country. I ask this question a quarter of a century after direct provision was introduced as a temporary measure. A quarter of a century later, we have had a White Paper and the Day report but we still have no State-owned...
