There should be no...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...xf3;n Roinn nó ón Aire Airgeadais? Tá an leathanbhanda luaite cheana ach cad iad na tograí eile atá ag teastáil chun déileáil leis an ráta ard dífhostaíochta sna ceantair? Bheadh na taskforces nó na ceantair pleanála teanga gafa leis sin. Má táimid ag iarraidh daoine a mhealladh ar ais, ní díreach tithe...

Ní bhíonn a fhios acu roimh ré ach tá siad an-mhaith mar bíonn siad in ann an Ghaeilge seo agamsa a thuiscint agus Gaeilge an Teachta Pearse...

Consumer Credit (Amendment) Bill 2018: Second Stage [Private Members] (12 Dec 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...of State should think about how much profit they are making in the Irish market. I first asked this question back in the 1990s and have continued to ask it since. I praise my colleague, Deputy Pearse Doherty, for being persistent and raising the issue again. It is an absolute disgrace that the Minister is seeking to delay the Bill. It will be delayed enough in going through the...

Home Building Finance Ireland Bill 2018: Report Stage (2 Oct 2018)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...for accommodation provided for those less fortunate, taking a place on a housing list or adding to overcrowding in family homes. I urge the Minister of State to consider the amendment put forward by my colleagues, Deputies Ó Broin and Pearse Doherty. They have argued this case inside and outside the House for quite some time. The amendment is reasonable. Given the duration of...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...bia a chur ar an mbord nó íoc as scolaíocht agus go raibh cruachás eile ina saol. Bhí siad chun é seo a dhéanamh toisc go raibh siad ag iarraidh déanamh cinnte de go raibh dídean acu agus ag a bpáistí agus gur chonaic siad nach raibh an dara rogha acu toisc nach raibh an Rialtas seo, ná an Rialtas roimhe, sásta...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...to know. What we now have is a discussion around the motion which we did not need to have. This could have been teased out, as was attempted by my party leader, Deputy Adams, by our finance spokesperson, Deputy Pearse Doherty, by Deputy Catherine Murphy and quite a number of others, over the past number of months. What they asked is exactly what the Minister promised in an election not...

Gateway Scheme: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (12 Mar 2014)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...fence to date with regard to JobBridge. Even for them, Gateway is very difficult to swallow because it is low-cost hard labour. It is workfare and I make no apology for using that terminology. Deputy Pearse Doherty has outlined how the councillors in Donegal have already acted on behalf of the public and rejected the Gateway scheme and this will happen elsewhere. I urge the Government,...

Finance Bill 2013: Second Stage (Resumed) (21 Feb 2013)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...The Finance Bill will not address that and, in this case, will add to the distress of many sections of Irish society. It is disappointing that the Bill does not provide for a wealth tax. Deputy Pearse Doherty has explained the benefit of introducing a wealth tax on the model that exists in France. It does not include provision for a third rate of income tax on moneys earned in excess...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Le cead an Tí, roinnfidh mé mo chuid ama leis an Teachta Pearse Doherty má tá sé in ann bheith anseo. Ar shlí amháin, tá éacht déanta ag an Aire Stáit. Tá sé tar éis Bille Gaeltachta a chur os comhair an tí, rud a bhfuilimid ag fanacht air le tamall maith de bhlianta. Táimid ag fanacht le fada le Bille Gaeltachta a dhíreodh isteach ar thodhchaí na Gaeltachta. Sin an fáth...

Lá na Gaeilge: Statements (7 Mar 2012)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: .... Caithfidh muidne na cinntí a ghlacadh anois chun a dhéanamh cinnte de gur seoid cheart, chultúrtha í an Ghaeilge agus go gcuirtear chun cinn í. Ba mhaith liom deis a thabhairt don Teachta Pearse Doherty cúpla focal a rá.

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...ar fad ag iarraidh go dtiocfadh an leasu sin maidir leis an pá meánach isteach chomh tapaidh agus is féidir. D'fhéadfaí sin a thabhairt i réim an tseachtain seo caite nuair a mhol an Teachta Pearse Doherty leasú ar an mBille Airgeadais. Níor glacadh leis an rún. Tá a fhios againn nach nglacfaidh an t-Aire ach leis na leasaithe a mhol sí féin, is é sin go n-athrófaí an...

Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2011: Second Stage (7 Jun 2011)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...The minimum wage must be merely another related matter. In fact, however, the changes to it were introduced in a Finance Bill and they should be restored in a similar Bill. My colleague, Deputy Pearse Doherty, has tabled an amendment to the Finance (No. 2) Bill which would restore the minimum wage more quickly than this Bill can and that measure would be more understandable in a more...

European Council: Statements (7 Jul 2010)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...of years. The Government is signing up to an interference from outside in our affairs. That amounts to a loss of sovereignty. The EU hampers our recovery in other ways. A colleague, Senator Pearse Doherty, was recently lobbied by firms in Donegal that lost out on tenders to firms from the Six Counties and England because those jurisdictions do not have to honour the existing Registered...
