Housing and Evictions: Motion [Private Members] (21 Feb 2023)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...;ire déanamh cinnte de go bhfuil éigeandáil fógartha againn. Tá éigeandáil tithíochta ann agus níl an Rialtas seo ag déileáil leis. I do not agree with the part of the motion before the House which states that the Government has lost control. It never had control. That is the problem. For far too long, this Government and other...

Garda Síochána (Recording Devices) Bill 2022: Second Stage (Resumed) (9 Feb 2023)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: This Bill is long overdue. For far too long, An Garda Síochána has been hampered in its ability to tackle crime. Obviously, and I will come back to this, there is a need for every additional power the Minister gives to An Garda Síochána to be linked to oversight and an understanding of why it is being done and whether it is justifiable. If the Minister reads the...

Income Eligibility for Social Housing Supports: Statements (15 Dec 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...forced out of their own areas where they grew up and went to school. There is no possibility of them affording or renting them. The cost to rent a house in Ballyfermot on Decies Road, a road on which I lived not long ago, is €2,500. It is absolute madness for any society to allow that amount of rent to be demanded for a house. A house next door is being sold for nearly...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Heritage Projects (1 Dec 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I thank the Minister of State. He is correct that there is supposedly mediation taking place. However, that has been ongoing for quite a long time. Ownership has been disputed since 2018 when the planning permission ran out. The problem is that one of the parties disputing ownership is in fact the local authority, the body that is supposed to protect the building under dispute. I brought...

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Estimates for Public Services 2022
Vote 35 - Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media (Supplementary) (23 Nov 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I will not delay the Ministers too long with my questions. These are questions I have asked in the past without having the exact figure. It is welcome that some funding is being repurposed although not fully in the way I wished and that there is also a recognition of particular problems that sports clubs and organisations have because they are non-funded. They are not businesses and have...

Vote 35 - Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media (Supplementary) (23 Nov 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...rooms, and, as the Minister of State mentioned, introducing LED lights. Clubs with floodlights might not have the necessary funding to retrofit but if they did, it would be a saving in the long term. How can we encourage them to do so? Perhaps grants can be made available in the future. Such items may not fall under the sports capital grant because------

Dublin City Safety Initiatives and Other Services: Statements (17 Nov 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...thuggish elements outside will not come into their homes in whatever way. The advice to those who have had threats made against them because of a son's or other relative's drug debt is to pay up. That is the advice not from me but from gardaí on the beat and elsewhere. What type of message goes out when An Garda Síochána will not go into an area without the armed response...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Sports Facilities (8 Nov 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...over the years, some welcome, some not. Not all address the needs of the community, in particular the housing needs of that community. The reason I raise this matter is that the community has a crying need for Government action and investment along with Dublin City Council to ensure there are spaces for sports and the community, especially a community that is growing as this is at the...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...the Irish language and do more to ensure that our traditions are promoted. We believe this is an opportunity to right that wrong and to ensure that all the media in Ireland understand that is part of their duty. A number of the amendments relate to section 7 and further down they relate to the long Title of the Bill because we believe it of such important that it should be mentioned. The...

Select Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (25 Oct 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...Ireland. There are measures already used for rights when music is played, but artists from elsewhere in the European Union, because we are in the European Union, would not be excluded from receiving this funding as long as they perform in Ireland or performed music composed by an Irish resident. This is to ensure we are in compliance with any EU rules or directives. The aim is to address...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: An Garda Síochána (20 Sep 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...role to play and I accept the role of local representatives, youth services, schools and the like. However, there is an immediate need for a response from the Garda so this can be nipped in the bud, and it is a long bud at this stage. We cannot have what happened yesterday continuing.

Higher Education Authority Bill 2022: Report and Final Stages (22 Jun 2022)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as na leasuithe a mhol sé. We have come a long way and I acknowledge the large amount of work that has been done in moving towards a Bill that is much more acceptable in terms of promotion of the Irish language. However, there are areas where I still disagree with the Minister. Even at this stage, he could go a little further in line with the...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: ...never a requirement as such, which meant that many State boards and bodies did not stick with the original intentions of the State. People will recall that when the State was founded, there was a long tradition of most of the State organisations having Irish language names. There was a huge campaign to ensure that those within the Civil Service learned Irish and spoke in Irish. In the...
