European Union Migration and Asylum Pact: Motion [Private Members] (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: On a brief point of order that is not a response to any comment, the Minister was not present when I spoke and I also want to be associated with the expression of solidarity and to express my regret about what happened to her family, which was terrible.

European Union Migration and Asylum Pact: Motion [Private Members] (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: We believe the Government is taking the wrong approach on this migration compact. We believe Ireland is in a unique position. It has a unique opportunity. Ourselves and Denmark are the only countries that have the flexibility to opt out. We have that flexibility going back to recognition of the fact that Ireland is in a common travel area with Britain. There are a number of reasons the...

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCathaoirleach. Dá bhféadfainn seo a dhéanamh i dhá chuid, an mbeadh sé sin ceart go leor? Tá roinnt ceisteanna agam faoi Gael-Taca agus Corcaigh agus roinnt ceisteanna ginearálta. Ar an gcéad dul síos gabhaim buíochas lenár bhfinnéithe go léir as ucht a bheith anseo. Plé an-shuimiúil...

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Ó thaobh na staire de, más buan é mo chuimhne, bhí athchóiriú déanta ar an mbord agus tá bord agus struchtúr nua ann. Na fiacha atá ann, ní fiacha atá iontu, i dtuairim an bhfinné.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Pleanáil Teanga Lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Costais a bhí ann. Dá mbeadh an maoiniú tar éis leanúint an t-am ar fad, bheadh an t-airgead sin caite ar na costais a bhí ag an eargraíocht thart ar an tréimhse sin.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Pleanáil Teanga Lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Ceart go leor. Is dócha gurb í seo an cheist dheireanach do mhuintir Ghael-Taca. Tá Gael-Taca beagáinín éagsúil. Níl sé iomlán éagsúil. Tá Gaillimh le Gaeilge agus eagraíocht amháin eile a fhaigheann a gcuid maoinithe díreach ón Roinn seachas trí Fhoras na Gaeilge de bharr na staire atá ann....

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Pleanáil Teanga Lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht: Plé (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Ó thaobh Ghael-Taca, tá an plean an chuimsitheach: 154 leathanach. Tá sé an suntasach. Is dóigh liom gur cóir tacú leis. Nílim ar an gcoiste ach mholfainn don choiste b'fhéidir scríobh chuig an Aire go foirmeálta agus soiléiriú a lorg maidir le cad go díreach atá i gceist ó thaobh na constaice agus na...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Our Rural Future and Town Centre First Policies: Discussion (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I thank the witnesses. It is an interesting topic and it falls across two Departments. One of the interesting aspects is that the very real challenges we face in rural communities and small towns are not unique to Ireland. Urbanisation is a challenge that most developed countries face. There are perhaps factors that are unique to Ireland. In continental Europe it is maybe based much more...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Our Rural Future and Town Centre First Policies: Discussion (1 May 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I will have to go soon as I will be speaking in a debate in the Dáil Chamber but I would like to make a few brief observations. There are lots of things that could be done in Passage West but the key to opening it all up is the docklands site. It is huge and is right in the middle of what is a very narrow town. Retail is something to be cautious about in the sense that we have seen...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: EU Regulations and Directive on International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Discussion (Resumed) (30 Apr 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I thank all the organisations and acknowledge the importance of their work. It has always been challenging work and, in many ways, it has become more challenging. While we might not agree on every element of this proposal or any other policy, it is vital to have organisations speaking on behalf of asylum seekers and people who are vulnerable, who may not have the voices other people have. ...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: EU Regulations and Directive on International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Discussion (Resumed) (30 Apr 2024)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I think the question Senator McDowell asks is a valid one. I think it is still important to appeal and it is still important to pass the legislation because we are still potentially dealing with the hypothetical. It is right to rectify the flaw that exists, because we could still be dealing with a situation where Rwanda does not happen or it is unclear how many people might end up there and...
