Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues in Higher and Further Education: Discussion (21 Jun 2023)

Mairéad Farrell: I will finish on this. It is more a statement than a question. I am aware the accommodation is oversubscribed. There must be people taking on huge debt to put their child through college. It must be the case because who can afford €815 per month on top of everything else? On the below-market rents, how much of a percentage is that and is it based on how much this is or is it an...

Mairéad Farrell: Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCathaoirleach agus lenár n-aíonna as teacht os comhair an choiste. Tá go leor de na ceisteanna curtha cheana féin. Iarraim faoi rud amháin mar ní raibh a fhios agam go dtí cúpla mí ó shin faoi na hionaid fuíolluisce, na cinn atá faoi Uisce Éireann agus na cinn nua nach bhfuil. Is dócha go...

Mairéad Farrell: An bhfuil a fhios ag an Dr. O'Reilly cúis an chinnidh sin? Níl luíonn sé le ciall ar bith liom ach b'fhéidir go raibh cineál éigin cúise faoinár socraíodh é sin a dhéanamh. Má tá Uisce Éireann ann, ní thuigim an chúis nach mbeadh cinn nua faoi Uisce Éireann.

Mairéad Farrell: Tuigim é sin agus b'fhéidir gurbh í sin an cheist a chuirfidh mé ar an Aire, nó tiocfaidh mé ar bhealach eile chun an ní sin a ardú. Caithfidh mé a rá nach luíonn sé le ciall domsa ar chor ar bith. Tuigim an méid atá á rá ag an Dr. O'Reilly go bhfuil scéimeanna ann chun an t-airgead sin a chaitheamh. Mar a...

Mairéad Farrell: Tá sé sin suimiúil agus tá a fhios agam go bhfuil deacrachtaí ar leith mar gheall gur oileán amach ón gcósta é. Baineann an dara ceist atá agam leis na deacrachtaí atá ar Inis Oírr thar oíche mar nach bhfuil daoine in ann uisce a úsáid, agus mar sin de. Tá a fhios againn gach uile bhliain go dtiocfaidh na...

Mairéad Farrell: Tá sé sin iontach. An bhfuil a fhios ag Des Joyce cé chomh fada is a thógfaidh sé sin? Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil sé deacair, uaireanta, fios a bheith ag duine cé chomh fada is a thógfaidh tuairisc mar sin a chur i dtoll a chéile. Ar bhreathnaigh Uisce Éireann riamh ar thíortha eile a bhfuil na deacrachtaí céanna acu agus...

Mairéad Farrell: Tá sé suimiúil is dócha. Níor smaoinigh mé ar an Astráil ach ar ndóigh tá an tír chomh mór sin agus tá oileáin amuigh ansin freisin. Tá sé sách suimiúil. Baineann an cheist eile atá agam leis an fhadhb a bhí ar Inis Bó Finne anuraidh leis an mangainéis. An é sin a bhí i...

Mairéad Farrell: De bharr go raibh sé tirim le fada, an bhfeiceann na finnéithe an tionchar cheana féin ar na hoileáin agus mar sin de? Níl mé ag iarraidh an tír ina iomláine a rá mar tá sé sin iomarcach mar cheist ach an gceapann siad go mbeadh impleachtaí aige sin ar mhangainéis, mar shampla?

Mairéad Farrell: Ní raibh mo chomhghleacaí an Teachta Ó Dochartaigh in ann teacht chuig an gcruinniú inniu, ach d'iarr sé orm trí cheist maidir le Dún na nGall a ardú ar fhaitíos go bhfuil na finnéithe á gceistiú féin cén fáth go bhfuilim chomh buartha sin faoi. Tá trí cheist ann. Tá na huimhreacha tagartha agam ach...

Mairéad Farrell: An dara cheist ná go bhfuil fear Gaeltachta atá 91 bliain d'aois tar éis fógra dlí a fháil ag bagairt an dlí a chur air toisc nár íoc sé bille €70 a fuair sé tamaillín ó shin. Níor thuig sé cad lenar bhain an bille, áfach, toisc nach n-úsáideann sé, agus níor úsáid riamh, an...

Mairéad Farrell: Labhraíonn siad Gaeilge dhifriúil agus nílim cinnte faoi na bhfocail. An bealach atá sé scríofa anseo ná go bhfuil caora laistigh de bhalla mórthimpeall ar fhoinse uisce sa Doire Beag. An bhfuil iniúchadh déanta ag Uisce Éireann go fóill agus an bhfuil réiteach aige ar an gceist? Seo rud éigin atá thuas sna Doire...

Education Costs: Motion [Private Members] (20 Jun 2023)

Mairéad Farrell: I believe it was said in Shakespeare's Romeo and Julietthat "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet". I wonder, were William Shakespeare a student studying in Irish university today, would he say that student fees by any other name still stink? That is what we have. There is a situation whereby post-crash student fees were branded as a charge. A solution which tries to rebrand the...
