Financial Resolutions 2024 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (2 Oct 2024)

Holly Cairns: Since Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael went into government with each other, it has not been clear which party's ethos has been more influential. One thing was very clear yesterday, though. We saw the return of Bertienomics. Fianna Fáil's infamous economic policy approach is once again leading the way. What could go wrong? Bertie once famously said that the boom was getting boomier...

Financial Resolutions 2024 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (2 Oct 2024)

Ivana Bacik: This country has resources that are the envy of our neighbours. I refer to the Apple billions, record surpluses and low unemployment. However, in the Ireland of 2024, even workers with good jobs and their own homes suffer from a lack of public infrastructure and a cost-of-living crisis. Those without homes are suffering most. They are at the sharp edge of our housing disaster. It is not...

Mary Lou McDonald: They will continue to pay big fees, continue to search for spaces that do not exist, and continue to be stressed today and worried about the future. Our plan would deliver the change they need, not just soundbites. It is a plan to make childcare affordable at €10 a day per child by next September, a plan to deliver early years educators and childcare professionals the pay increase...

Mary Lou McDonald: We have heard the Government oscillate between self-congratulatory backslapping and defensive, self-righteous attack rhetoric, neither of which is grounded in any sense of reality. I notice the Taoiseach is not here to participate in this debate. That is a first in my recollection. Perhaps, after all the bragging and hot air, the Taoiseach cannot present himself to stand by and stand over...

Aindrias Moynihan: Go raibh maith agat, a Thánaiste. Leanfaimid ar aghaidh leis an Aire, an Teachta Roderic O'Gorman.

Financial Resolutions 2024 - Financial Resolution No. 5: General (Resumed) (2 Oct 2024)

Roderic O'Gorman: I begin by recognising the huge work done by the Ministers, Deputies Donohoe and Chambers, and their teams over the last months in delivering budget 2025, the fifth and final budget of this Government. The delivery of this final budget gives us a moment to reflect. When the Green Party contested the election in 2020, we did so proposing a manifesto entitled Towards 2030: A decade of change....

Catherine Connolly: Is é sin uimhir a haon. Maidir le huimhir a dó, tá oifig an choimisinéara i mbun oibre ar an obair atá déanta go dtí seo ag an gcoiste sin. Beidh sé sin á fhoilsiú ag an oifig roimh dheireadh na bliana. Beidh sé sin suimiúil. Ansin, tá tuarascálacha eile faoi chaibidil aici freisin. Tá ceann maidir le...

Catherine Connolly: Beidh sé sin suimiúil. De réir mar a thuigim, tá dul chun cinn iontach déanta ó thaobh na fógraíochta. Tá an Ghaeilge i bhfad níos feiceálaí. Beimid ag tnúth leis an tuarascáil sin agus le feiceáil an bhfuil an ceart againn go bhfuil céim chun cinn déanta.

Catherine Connolly: An mbeidh moltaí á ndéanamh ag oifig an choimisinéara ó thaobh an céatadán a athrú? Tá céatadán i gceist ó thaobh caiteachais.

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Sílim gur ceann de na bealaí is dearfaí chun an Ghaeilge a normalú ná í a fheiceáil agus a chloisteáil mar sin. Tá neart deiseanna ann chun é sin a mhéadú. Táim ag breathnú ar an gclog. Tá obair eile ar siúl ag an oifig ó thaobh éileamh ar iarbhunscoileanna. An féidir tuilleadh a rá faoi sin?

Catherine Connolly: Tá sé sin an-tábhachtach, mar is eol dúinn. Bhí neart dreamanna os ár gcomhair agus agóidí taobh amuigh den Dáil ó thaobh easpa cearta teanga, an t-éileamh atá ann, agus tá sé sin soiléir. An mbeidh tuarascáil á foilsiú ag an oifig?

Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community: Tuarascáil Bhliantúil 2023 an Choimisinéara Teanga agus Ábhair Ghaolmhara: Plé (2 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Is maith an rud é sin a chloisteáil. Níl aon amhras ar an gcoimisinéir ach go bhfuil cearta teanga ann faoin Acht Oideachais ó thaobh na Gaeilge de.
