Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Rail Network (16 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: It is a relatively recent invention of Government that the purely economic case of everything has to be justified. There are many things we do in society for societal good that do not make economic sense but they make social sense, regional balance sense and common sense, which is becoming very uncommon. Will the Minister outline the procedures? He has outlined the first one, where he has...

Éamon Ó Cuív: I provided funding of, I think, €5 million to clear the line from Collooney, all the way down to the CLÁR area boundary, which was south of Claremorris, back in 2006. What we need now is construction. We know the line is intact. We have been trying to explain that for a long time. It is intact from Collooney. That section of the line was cleared last year, but perennially...

Éamon Ó Cuív: My commiserations to all those who have suffered or are suffering as a result of the Dublin and Monaghan bombings 50 years ago. In view of this atrocity, of the recent revelations in the Kenova inquiry and many other instances of counterinsurgency and of the continued operation of British counterinsurgency activities, as evidenced in the McFadden affair, will the Government call on the...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Go raibh maith ag an gCathaoirleach. Cuirim fáilte roimh na finnéithe ar fad. Tá súil go mbeidh toradh ar obair an lae inniu. Tá dhá cheist agam. Má chuirtear comórtas ar bun, ar ceart go mbeidh Gaelscoil i gcomórtas do scoil Bhéarla nó Gaelscolaíocht i gcomórtas do scolaíocht trí Bhéarla? Sa chás go...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Is an-smaoineamh é sin. Is rud mar sin atá i gceist agamsa. Céard is ea ceantar réasúnta le haghaidh cathair? San áit ina bhfuil cónaí orm anois, ní cheapfadh éinne gur tada é dul 10 míle nó 15 míle ar scoil, ach tá sé sin difriúil toisc go bhfuil an pobal scaipthe. Istigh i gcathair, ní...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: An pointe atá mise ag déanamh ná go bhfuil polasaí mór á lorg maidir le critéir Gaeilge do na meánscoileanna, ach tá an polasaí ann cheana féin. Níl le déanamh ach critéir a chur leis an bpolasaí. Céard a chiallaíonn an méid atá ráite sa pholasaí? Níl na mionpholasaithe leagtha...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Táimid ag moladh go traspháirtí go mbeadh critéir ann. Má deirimid 250, sin an méid gur ghá a bheith agat, agus caithfear cruthúnas réasúnta a chur ar bun. Is an chéad rud le breathnú air ná an méid dalta atá ag freastal ar oideachas bunleibhéal sa cheantar roghnaithe. Níl aon mhaitheas bheith ag...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Bhí mise ag díriú isteach ar na scoileanna i mBaile Átha Cliath. Má tá bunscoil lán-Ghaeilge i mbaile mór, agus limistéar de 20 míle timpeall air sin gan aon Ghaelscolaíocht ann, glacaim leis go bhfuil critéir faoi leith i gceist. An faitíos atá ormsa sa chathair ná go mbeadh slat tomhais tuaithe i gceist, rud nach...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá sé spéisiúil. Tá an bheirt againne atá fágtha as Dhumhach Thrá, is é sin idir Dhroichead na Dothra agus Domhnach Broc. Tá an bheirt díobh as Baile Átha Cliath 4. Tá Gaeilge ann, bhí Gaeilge ann agus beidh Gaeilge ann.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Rud amháin go gcaithfimid cuimhneamh air anseo ná go bhfuil píosa eile polasaí anseo a dhéantar dearmad air, is é sin: Dearbhaíonn an Rialtas a thacaíocht d’fhorbairt agus do chaomhnú na Gaeilge agus na Gaeltachta tríd an ráiteas seo. Creideann an Rialtas go bhfuil tábhacht ar leith ag baint leis an nGaeilge do phobal, do...

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Éileamh don Ghaelscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil) (15 May 2024)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Tuigim, ach má táthar ag iarraidh é a dhéanamh go sciobtha, nár fhantar. Tá a fhios ag chuile dhuine sa Teach anseo - táim ar phéire coistí - an mífhoighne le bunú coimisiún agus mar sin de, ach nuair atá an polasaí ann cheana féin, úsáid é. Is é sin an difríocht idir an rud atáim ag...
