I ask the Minister for an update on the delivery of a completely new modular build of 18 classrooms with facilities to meet the accommodation crisis at Scoil Aonghusa national school in Cashel, County Tipperary. This centre of excellence has been waiting since 2015 to proceed to design and planning stage. The current situation is having enormous implications for the 150 students with complex special needs who attend …
I welcome that confirmation. It is a huge boost to everybody involved in the centre of excellence that is Scoil Aonghusa. I acknowledge all the team in the school who do such fantastic work that creates such a positive environment for these young students to reach their maximum ability in. The board met on Tuesday night last and obviously welcomed this approval. As I said, they have been waiting for this since 2015. …
I thank the Minister. As I said, I am conscious we are talking about a physical building but of course Scoil Aonghusa and many other special schools around the country are so much more than that. They are the positive environment in which our children, especially children with special needs, can reach the maximum of their ability. I wish to acknowledge in the Chamber the principal and her amazing team of teachers, nu…
I begin by offering my congratulations to the Leas-Cheann Comhairle on his elevation. I hope his new role does not distract him from continuing to represent my in-laws in Kilkenny city, namely John and Noeleen Breen.
I thank the Leas-Cheann Comhairle. I also pay tribute to former councillor Joe Bourke, from Templemore, who passed away this evening. I had Joe Bourke here in Leinster House a number of weeks ago. Unfortunately, Joe had not been well. I had the distinction of serving with Joe on Tipperary County Council and on the Southern Regional Assembly. He was a man of exceptional traits and character and a real positive force w…
I welcome the engagement launched by the Minister for Finance with the HSE and the fact that he has asked his departmental officials to examine the matter in conjunction with Revenue. In the event of an update following that engagement, will the Minister update the House?
Would the Minister of State agree there is an extremely important role that can be played by local authorities and local enterprise offices, LEOs, in terms of accelerating the digital agenda? They have a relationship with their SMEs on the ground. I am conscious that many small SMEs do not have the requisite capacity and could benefit greatly from better engagement with local authorities and local enterprise offices.
Could the Taoiseach provide an update on the new proposed Garda station in Clonmel and tell me whether a contractor has been appointed? I welcome the commitment in the programme for Government to provide funding for 5,000 additional gardaí during the lifetime of this mandate. Ensuring law and order is also a challenge for towns and villages in rural Ireland, including my constituency of Tipperary South - towns like T…
I ask for an update on URDF funding. My hometown of Clonmel is ready to submit an application. That application is shovel-ready. To date there has been an investment of more than €1 million by Tipperary County Council. The project focuses on the regeneration and re-imagination of the public realm in the town centre within the historic heart of Clonmel. This funding is crucial to towns like Clonmel in terms of realisi…
I will follow earlier precedent, this being my maiden speech, to thank the people of south Tipperary for putting confidence in me to be their legislator and parliamentarian at the national level. I am very much looking forward to the opportunities and challenges ahead, and I am always conscious of the trust placed in me by the electorate of south Tipperary.
I want to reflect on the role of local authorities having r…
