An Teachta McGettigan has one more two-minute slot if she wishes.

Bogaimid ar aghaidh go dtí leasú Uimh. 2 in ainm an Teachta Eoghan Kenny. Tá seacht nóiméad aige.

Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire. Glaoim ar an Teachta Kenny. Tá dhá nóiméad aige.

Cuirfear an Bille chun an tSeanaid anois.

Duine amháin.

Duine amháin.

Gabh mo leithscéal, a theachta.

Duine amháin, go raibh maith agaibh.

Gabh mo leithscéal, duine amháin.

Má tá na Teachtaí ag iarraidh gearán nó comhrá a dhéanamh lena chéile, is féidir leo dul amach. Tá an tAire ina sheasamh agus ag críochnú na díospóireachta.

Bhí sé geallta go dtabharfaí cumhachtaí nua d’Údarás na Gaeltachta. Bhí sé geallta ó 2021 go bhfoilseofaí treoirlínte pleanála do thithe sa Ghaeltacht chomh maith. Dúradh linn ag an am go raibh na treoirlínte sin beagnach réidh, ach fós níl siad ann. Níl ceachtar de na gealltanais sin comhlíonta agus tá muintir na Gaeltachta thíos leis dá bharr gan tithíocht do lánúineacha nó clainne nua. Cén fáth…

Gabh mo leithscéal.

Gabh mo leithscéal, a Aire.

Tá sé in am anois an leasú seo a chur. Is féidir leis an Aire agus an Teachta Dála na fadhbanna atá acu a réiteach thar na gcéad píosaí eile. Tá cúpla uair a chloig againn istigh anseo.

Bogfaimid ar aghaidh go dtí leasú Uimh. 4, arising out of committee proceedings. Amendments Nos. 4 and 11 are related and will be discussed together.

Tá baint ag leasuithe Uimh. 5 agus 6 le chéile agus pléifear le chéile iad.

We are not in government so we are not breaking our promises.

We are not in government.

The Tánaiste is encouraging it.

Tairgim leasú Uimh. 25: In page 68, line 26, to delete “appropriate,”,” and substitute the following: “appropriate, (vii) a condition that the qualifying company shall, in respect of the qualifying film concerned, comply fully with the Copyright and Related Rights Act 2000 and the Directive (EU) 2019/790 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019, (viii) a condition that th…

On the last point, in some ways I agree with the Minister that laws cannot be disapplied but the problem is the frustration for people when the law is being ignored. The point Deputy Ó Murchú was making is that one of the problems is that to avail of section 481, companies are set up, which then disappear, so the Minister does not have recourse to chase after them after the fact. When artists try …

I hear the reluctance, which has been there all along, to add conditionality to section 481. There is an acknowledgement of changes in a flourishing industry. We need to make sure that while it flourishes the message goes out from here, from the Government and from Revenue that any attempts to mislead will not be tolerated in any shape or form. This applies to only one or two companies, but it see…
