Aengus Ó Snodaigh

Tá a lán cainte an tseachtain seo le linn Seachtain na Gaeilge - nó coicís na Gaeilge ag an staid seo - faoi bhrí focail Ghaeilge. Bhí a lán cainte ann le déanaí faoi cad is “bréag” ann. An bréag a bhí i gceist in Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2021, ós rud é go bhfuil ailt 9A, 18C, 18E agus 19A á sárú ag an Rialtas? An bréag a bhí i gceist leis an ndualgas in Acht an Gharda Síochána, 2003 g…

Yes, we have.

Yes, we have.

We had legislation in this House several times by-----

You are spoofing again.

I am not interrupting you; I am correcting the record of the Dáil.

The wording has been debated in here.

You voted against it.

That is how much of a spoofer you are. You voted against it.

Tairgim: Déanann Dáil Éireann: ceiliúradh ar ár dteanga náisiúnta agus ár bpríomhtheanga oifigiúil atá lárnach i saol sóisialta, cultúir agus eacnamaíoch an náisiúin uile, an Stáit, agus na Gaeltachta ach go háirithe, mar mheán bríomhar, nua-aimseartha agus síorathraitheach sa ghnáthshaol laethúil, foghlama, cúraim, tráchtála, ceartais, riaracháin, litríochta, ceoil, drámaíochta, agus ealaíon cl…

Go raibh maith agat. Gabhaim buíochas leis an Teachta Tóibín.

Gabhaim buíochas le gach Teachta a ghlac páirt sa díospóireacht seo. Tá sé go hiontach go raibh an chuid is mó den díospóireacht go huile agus go hiomlán trí Ghaeilge. Aithním ach go háirithe iad siúd a labhair Gaeilge sa Dáil don chéad uair sa díospóireacht seo. Tá sé go hiontach go bhfuil an deis sin acu. Tá an deis sin acu gach uile lá, ach tharraing an díospóireacht seo roinnt daoine a bhí bea…

Tá an díospóireacht seo an-tábhachtach agus is trua nach bhfuil níos mó ama againn chun díriú isteach uirthi mar tá sí chomh tábhachtach sin gur gá dúinn a rá go bhfuil éigeandáil ann. There is a housing crisis. There has been a housing crisis. There is an emergency, and that emergency did not begin today or yesterday. We on this side of the House have been calling on the Government to declare a …

I wish to advise the House of the following matters in respect of which notice has been given under Standing Order 39 and the name of the Member in each case: Deputy Séamus McGrath – To discuss the shortage of available GP places in the south Cork area. Deputy Shane Moynihan – To discuss delays in the completion of coroner inquests and post mortems. Deputy Alan Kelly – To discuss the potential …

Go raibh maith agat, a Theachta.

Níl a fhios agam má tá an Taoiseach ar an eolas faoin stailc leathlae ag 40 eagras Gaeilge amárach chun réiteach a fháil anois agus infheistíocht chothrom a chinntiú do na grúpaí agus don Ghaeilge, seachas ciorruithe de €820,000 atá fógartha ag Foras na Gaeilge agus easpa maoinithe leanúnach le blianta san áireamh, gan fiú trácht ar an mboilsciú ar na costais. An nglacann an Taoiseach leis go bhfu…

I have only a few minutes to speak on what is a huge issue. I will start by mentioning the public health nurses in my own area and this is an issue right across the country. There is only one such nurse in the Drimnagh area and last year that person was transferred to the nearby area so there was no service. One might ask why this is an issue in this debate. Many young parents start to panic when …

This is a very important matter given that many people nowadays depend on being able to drive for work. While the Minister mentioned progress being made, progress has been slow. I, like probably every other TD here, can cite cases where people have not had access to a test and seem to have ended up in whatever hole the RSA has created to swallow up applications. We end up with people paying extra …

Sin é. Glaoim ar an Aire Stáit.

I wish to advise the House of the following matters in respect of which notice has been given under Standing Order 39 and the name of the Member in each case: Deputy Séamus McGrath - To discuss Garda resources and station opening hours in south Cork city division. Deputy Martin Daly - To discuss the development of the regional national rehabilitation unit at Roscommon University Hospital. Deput…

Bogfaidh muid ar aghaidh go dtí tairiscint maidir leis an ghéarchéim tithíochta in ainm na nDaonlathaithe Sóisialta. Is é an chéad duine atá ar an liosta agam anseo ná an Teachta Rory Hearne.

B’fhéidir go raibh an méid a chuala muid ansin níos spéisiúla ná an méid atá le rá agam. Smaoiním siar fadó fadó, dhá mhí go leith ó shin, nuair a tháinig muid le chéile ar dtús báire tar éis an toghcháin. Bhí gliondar inár gcroíthe ag an am agus sceitimíní orthu siúd a bhí tofa den chéad uair. Bhí sceitimíní orm féin agus ar dhaoine eile a bhí san iomaíocht don phost mór, post an Cheann Comhairle…

Throw him out.

73. Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform the steps he will take to ensure that planned expenditure on projects in the national development plan are properly costed and have realistic start and completion dates; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

A long time ago, the Digital Hub was set up in Dublin. It has been shown over those years to be a hub to attract a lot of small businesses, incubator units, etc., that operate in the digital field. It has also linked in with the community and has quite good links in terms of teaching children and helping children in a deprived area to get to grips with computers and create jobs for them in the fut…
