- Seanad Committee on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union: Engagement on Citizenship Rights: Professor Colin Harvey, Mr. Liam Herrick and Mr. Michael Farrell (27 Apr 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: I thank the gentlemen for their presentations. The only aspect that is consistent when we navigate our way through this kind of process is that nothing is guaranteed or tangible about it and that there are many threats to the hard-fought-for and hard-won arrangements agreed between both parts of this island. I want to make a couple of points. I endorse fully Michael Farrell's point about...
- Seanad Committee on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union: Engagement on Citizenship Rights: Professor Colin Harvey, Mr. Liam Herrick and Mr. Michael Farrell (27 Apr 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: That is an insightful answer but I wonder if Professor Harvey has a view on the mechanics of that. I would share his sentiment about the need for an Irish Government to challenge that, not only as co-guarantor but as co-defender, perhaps even the only defender, of the Good Friday Agreement. Does Professor Harvey see a role for the Irish Government as the negotiations progress in arguing...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Acht na Gaeilge: Engagement with Conradh na Gaeilge (4 May 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: Gabhaim buíochas le na finnéithe as a bheith linn agus don chur i láthair thar a bheith cuimsitheach. Sílim go bhfuil sé tábhachtach cur leis an méid atá ráite ag an Teachta Breathnach cheana féin ó thaobh obair Chonradh na Gaeilge, atá sáite i bpobal bríomhar agus fuinneamhach atá ag fás an t-am ar fad, ní...

Niall Ó Donnghaile: B'fhéidir go ndéanfaidh an tUasal Mac Giolla Bhéin trácht ar an comhairliúcháin a rinneadh ó thaobh na straitéise chun comhthéacs a thabhairt dúinn.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Acht na Gaeilge: Engagement with Conradh na Gaeilge (4 May 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: Níl ach dhá rud gasta le rá agam. Ní chuimhin cé a luaigh ceist chúrsaí craoltóireachta. Sílim gur luaigh Mr. Mac Ghiolla Bhéin é. Dar ndóigh tá muidne ag plé cúrsaí Chomhaontú Aoine an Chéasta, sin na téarmaí reference atá againn. Beidh cuimhne ag na finnéithe go bhfuil píosa...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Acht na Gaeilge: Engagement with Conradh na Gaeilge (4 May 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: Cúig oiread níos mó? Gabh mo leithscéal. Tá sin thar a bheith suntasach, nach bhfuil? Níl fhios agam an bhfuil smaoineamh nó barúil ag na finnéithe ar sin ó thaobh na cearta atá ann faoin Chomhaontú. Bhí mé ag iarraidh tagairt a dhéanamh don lá dearg ar 20 Bealtaine roimh deireadh an chruinniú, muna...
- Seanad: Order of Business (9 May 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: Iarraim chun rud ar leith a luadh a bhaineann le saorántacht ó Thuaidh agus go háirithe le Comhaontú Aoine an Chéasta. I thank the Cathaoirleach for allowing me to contribute after the allotted time has expired. I will be brief in raising a matter, as I hope to bring it before the Seanad down the line. It is important for Members to be aware that, currently in...

- Seanad: Courts (No. 2) Bill 2016: Second Stage (9 May 2017)
Niall Ó Donnghaile: I support the comments of my colleague, Senator Mark Daly, on the Bill. It is technical and one which we all concede is needed. Senator Mark Daly has rightly referred to the efficiency of court administration and the freeing up of Garda resources, but we also hope the Bill will deal the issue of people using the excuse that they did not receive a notice through the post. When I reflect on...
