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

Mick Barry: Yesterday, as Government TDs were basking in self-congratulation after the budget had been introduced, Pfizer went and spoiled the party somewhat by announcing plans to cut 210 jobs. These jobs are to be lost across the Pfizer sites at Ringaskiddy in County Cork, Grange Castle in west Dublin and Newbridge in County Kildare. In a statement the company said the job losses were being...

Denis Naughten: Yesterday, the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform said education was one component in ensuring a thriving population, as is feeling supported in times of ill-health. As many Members know, I have been consistently raising questions about the planned relocation of the children's hospital in Crumlin to the national children's hospital site, bizarrely...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Deputy Boyd Barrett is sharing time with Deputy Barry.

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

Richard Boyd Barrett: The Taoiseach and Tánaiste have lost all interest in the budget. I suspect the wider public have lost interest anyway because they realise through bitter experience it will not make much difference to the real issues that affect their lives. I will not go through an exhaustive list of what is not there or what we would have done instead. People can read our alternative budget...

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...

Micheál Martin: There is a full allocation for that now. Come on. Give it a rest.

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

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...

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

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....

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)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Tá an cruinniú seo ar siúl mar ghnáthchruinniú i seomra coiste 4 i dTithe an Oireachtais, cé go bhfuil gné fhíorúil ar Microsoft Teams mar chuid de. Tá an Seanadóir Lorraine Clifford-Lee agus na Teachtaí Dála Fergus O'Dowd agus Catherine Connolly i láthair, mar aon liom féin. Níl leithscéal ar bith faighte...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCoimisinéir Teanga. Bogfaimid ar aghaidh go dtí ceisteanna anois.

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)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Maidir le baill fhoirne, an féidir leis an gcoimisinéir a thuar cé mhéad ball foirne atá uaidh nó a bheidh uaidh de thairbhe an phlean mhóir atá ag teacht os ár comhair? Is cuimhin liom an cheist seo a chur roimhe seo. An bheirt, triúr nó cúigear é nó an bhfuil tuairim éigin ag an gcoimisinéir faoi sin?

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)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Tuigim sin. Más féidir leis na seirbhísí Gaeilge a bheith níos tapúla ná na cinn Bhéarla, casfar orthu go tapa. Is cuimhin liom sna 1980idí daoine ag cur ceist orm go minic glaoch a chur ar na cigirí cánach as Gaeilge toisc go raibh an tseirbhís i bhfad Éireann níos tapúla mar bhí leaid nó dhó ann a...

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)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Tá an chuma air go bhfuil an obair ag tarlú ach nach mbeidh a fhios againn go hiomlán go dtí go mbeidh an plean foilsithe agus go mbeidh sé ar siúl ar feadh bliana nó dhó cén tionchar a bheidh ag an bplean. Tá a fhios agam cheana féin ó bhualadh le roinnt daoine i gcomhlachtaí Stáit go bhfuil siad ag teacht le chéile....

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Moladh maith atá ann. Ardaíodh é cheana agus is féidir linn é a chur ar aghaidh chuig an gcoiste comhairleach chomh maith. Ba chóir go mbeadh a leithéid déanta. Sábhálfadh sé am ormsa dá mbéinn in ann gach duine a iarrann orm conas a deirtear é seo nó é siúd a chur i dteagmháil lena leithéid...

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)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Cuirfidh mé clabhsúr leis an gcoiste inniu. Gabhaim buíochas leis na finnéithe as a bheith i láthair inniu agus a dtuairimí a roinnt linn. B'fhéidir go mbeidh siad linn arís nuair atá na tuarascálacha againn nó b'fhéidir nach mbeidh. Beidh siad os comhair an chéad choiste eile nuair a thagann sé sin le chéile,...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Gabhaim buíochas leis an gcoimisinéir as an méid sin a rá. B'fhéidir go mbeidh cruinnithe príobháideacha againn amach anseo agus go mbeidh an Teachta Ó Cuív ag cuidiú linn déileáil le roinnt de na tuarascálacha atá fós os ár gcomhair. Leis sin ráite, críochnóidh mé an seisiún poiblí...
