JOINT COMMITTEE ON EUROPEAN AFFAIRS 01/05/08 Lisbon Treaty Public deliberations Chairman Ladies and gentlemen, you are all very welcome. As we have a quorum we propose to start. Whether we are ready remains to be seen but we will start anyway. Dinner or no dinner, we will dine now. This is the fourth of the public outreach meetings of the Oireachtas Joint Committee on European Affairs. We have two guest speakers - one for the treaty and one against it - but I will speak a little more about that in a moment. That is the format we follow. This is a statutory meeting of the Oireachtas Joint Committee on European Affairs. By order of the Houses of the Oireachtas, we have authority to meet outside Dublin. The first of these series of meetings was held in DCU, the second was held in Galway, the third was held in UCC last week and this is the fourth meeting. The fact that we have only been able to meet the people here on the fourth of these series of meetings is not in any way a reflection on their importance to us. It is simply that we could not hold all these meetings on the one night. We are pleased to be here and that those present have been able to attend. The purpose of this exercise is for this committee, comprising Oireachtas Members, to engage in a public discussion with members of the public in order for it to hopefully be of benefit to them in obtaining more information to assist them in making up their minds on how they might vote in the Lisbon treaty referendum. There are a number of points I want to make. We have two guest speakers. One is Mr. Kieran Allen, on my extreme left, although that is not to say he is on my extreme left other than by way of location. It was said about me on one occasion that I was the most extreme left winger of the Fine Gael Party and for my sins I put up my hand. The other guest speaker is Dr. Gavin Barrett. Mr. Kieran Allen is editor of VoteNo.iewebsite, author of a publication on the case against the Lisbon treaty and a candidate to be general secretary of SIPTU in the future, in regard to which I wish him well. Dr. Gavin Barrett is a barrister, a senior lecturer !1 in European law in the school of law in University College Dublin and editor of a number of works in the field of European law, most recently, “The National Parliaments and the European Union: The Constitutional Challenge for the Oireachtas and Other Member State Legislatures”. I thank the Fairways Hotel for the facilities it afforded us tonight. The purpose of the exercise is to provide as much possible accommodation for members of the public who will be expected to participate. People have said they do not know enough about the Lisbon treaty, they cannot make a decision on it, it is complicated and they do not have enough information to make up their minds on it. To that end, we propose to develop the thinking behind the treaty and behind the pro-treaty and anti-treaty lobbies. We remind those present that all members of the committee are Oireachtas Members. A number of members are deputising for the members of the committee who are not here and we will announce their names at a later stage. We do not propose to persuade those present to vote one way or the other but to develop a debate that will enable members of the public to come to a conclusion based on accurate information. The audience is free to make a contribution. There are two tables up at the front and we will encourage the members of the public to participate in the debate by coming forward at the appropriate time. There are seats for people at the front where they may sit until they are called to speak in front of the microphone. One should stand at arm's length away from a microphone when speaking into it, as the sound is not clear if one stands too close to it and speaks into it. The audience is free to make a contribution to the "No" side and the "Yes" side of the debate. The committee has devoted a large part of its efforts since its formation late in 2007 to becoming involved in the debate on what is happening in Europe, the Europe of the past, the Europe of the future, what the people want and what is in the national interest. We produced an interim report based on meetings we have had with the social partners. We interviewed ICTU, IBEC, the IFA and the ICMSA. We have met a large number of people involved in social partnership who gave their opinions freely and unequivocally but not unconditionally. !2 They said they had their views and were committed in one way or the other, but various people had reservations and said that, depending on what transpired, they would proceed accordingly. The format of the seating is part of the committee's endeavour to be objective, fair and ensure, as far as possible, that the debate is balanced. My name is Bernard Durkan and I am Chairman of this committee for the time being unless my party leader and the Taoiseach decide otherwise. I am a Dáil representative from Kildare North. I have been a member of this committee since 1981. I am the longest serving party member of Dáil Éireann on the European Affairs committee. Each guest speaker will be invited to make a short opening speech not exceeding ten to 15 minutes, and I ask them to observe that time allocation. I will then invite speakers from the floor. Members of the audience who wish to speak will be invited by the Chair to take the floor and they will have three minutes to contribute. The Chair has the right to interrupt. As a former Ceann Comhairle used to say, "the Chair never interrupts, the Chair intervenes". Therefore, the Chair will intervene if required to make some clarification or qualification, but that will not in any way diminish the time allowed for the questioner, the maximum of which will be three minutes. Members of the audience when invited to speak should give their name and state if they are a member of an organisation or if they represent a group, body, agency or otherwise. Proceedings of this sitting will be officially recorded, including contributions from members of the public. This will become part of a report we will compile. Individual names of members of the public and their contributions will be will be recorded in the report. The purpose of this exercise is to ensure the accuracy of the formal recording of the proceedings. Members of the staff from Dáil Éireann are here as they would be present at a sitting in Leinster House. They will record the contributions of members of public and speakers at the platform. The Official Report of the sitting will be prepared and published on the website of the Houses of the Oireachtas. The Official Report, which will be the ultimate report, will incorporate conclusions. It will incorporate our findings following the meetings the committee will have had with the public, the social partners and the various other bodies we have met. !3 Before we commence, I draw the attention of the guest speakers and members of the public to the fact that members of the committee have absolute privilege, similar to that which prevails in a court - they can say anything they like about anybody but cannot be challenged anywhere about it.

  • The Ulster Women's Unionist Council and Ulster Unionism
    “No Idle Sightseers”: The Ulster Women’s Unionist Council and Ulster Unionism (1911-1920s) Pamela Blythe McKane A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO JANUARY 2015 ©Pamela Blythe McKane 2015 Abstract Title: “No Idle Sightseers”: The Ulster Women’s Unionist Council and Ulster Unionism (1911-1920s) This doctoral dissertation examines the Ulster Women’s Unionist Council (UWUC), an overlooked, but historically significant Ulster unionist institution, during the 1910s and 1920s—a time of great conflict. Ulster unionists opposed Home Rule for Ireland. World War 1 erupted in 1914 and was followed by the Anglo-Irish War (1919- 1922), the partition of Ireland in 1922, and the Civil War (1922-1923). Within a year of its establishment the UWUC was the largest women’s political organization in Ireland with an estimated membership of between 115,000 and 200,000. Yet neither the male- dominated Ulster unionist institutions of the time, nor the literature related to Ulster unionism and twentieth-century Irish politics and history have paid much attention to its existence and work. This dissertation seeks to redress this. The framework of analysis employed is original in terms of the concepts it combines with a gender focus. It draws on Rogers Brubaker’s (1996) concepts of “nation” as practical category, institutionalized form (“nationhood”), and contingent event (“nationness”), combining these concepts with William Walters’ (2004) concept of “domopolitics” and with a feminist understanding of the centrality of gender to nation.
