Benefactors of Trinity College Dublin Benefactors of Trinity College Dublin Trinity Development and Alumni is administered by Trinity Foundation, an independent charity (CHY10898) established in 1994, and charged with responsibility for, and exists solely to support, the development (fundraising) and alumni relations activities of Trinity College Dublin. Trinity Development and Alumni was established with the objective of raising funds to support the development of Trinity College Dublin. It plays a vital role in ensuring that Trinity College has the financial resources to remain a leading, internationally recognised university. In the nine month period, 1 October 2016 to 30 June 2017, Trinity Development and Alumni was successful in securing pledges of about €21 million from 2,680 donors. The Trustees of Trinity Foundation join the Provost, Fellows and Scholars of Trinity College in thanking all supporters of the University. Significant philanthropic donations, which have been used to support College activities, were received and this funding is a testament both to the quality of the projects and to the generosity of our dedicated supporters. Special thanks are due to those who donated through the U.K. Trust for Trinity College Dublin, the University of Dublin Fund in the U.S.A. and all alumni who contributed to the Trinity Annual Fund.

  • Independent Alliance
    Independent Alliance Breda Burke Committee on Procedure and Privileges Standing sub-Committee on Dail Reform Dail Eireann Leinster House Dublin 2 1 16 h March 2016 Dear Breda, As instructed, please now find below the submissions for Dail reform, as proposed by the members of the Independent Alliance. Dail Reform The Independent Alliance is committed to fundamental Dail Reform. We are seeking that power be decentralised. Following the election, we believe there is a unique opportunity to return power to the Dail and reduce the power of the government. We believe the following measures are imperative for true Dail reform; a. The Independent Alliance will not be imposing any party whip, except on votes of confidence. This automatically rebalances power in favour of the Dail, against the cabinet. We would welcome a reciprocal gesture from other parties. If this is not possible for them on all aspects of Dail votes, perhaps parties might commit to removing the whip for certain topics? b. We believe the Taoiseach's prerogative on when to call a general election can be abused and manipulated to suit the Taoiseach of the day and their party, as opposed to acting in the country's best interest. For that reason, we want to remove this unique power and create stability and certainty for the lifetime of a government, thus increasing the work rate. For that reason we propose that Ireland follow the example of many other countries and introduce fixed terms for the Dail. There would of course be provision for an impromptu election if the Taoiseach fails to retain the support or confidence of a majority of the Dail.

This briefing document is produced as a result of the EAPN Focus on Poverty in Ireland project, which started in December 2006.

  • “The Politics of Reform”
    Text of an Address By Michael McDowell SC To The Daniel O’Connell Conference Derrynane, Co Kerry Friday 6th September, 2013 “The Politics of Reform” In his address, Michael McDowell asks all commentators, including editors and journalists, and all citizens to examine with real care the probable consequences of abolition of the Seanad. Abolition is not reform. He says there is real, worthwhile reform on the table that can become law by Christmas. He says that the effect of abolition would be to concentrate all power in the hands of those who control a majority in the Dail. We are being asked to walk “eyes wide shut” into a degradation of our democracy. 1 When I was originally invited to address this conference on the “The Politics of Reform”, I did not know that I would be speaking in the immediate run-up to a referendum on the future of our national parliament, the Oireachtas. The Irish people are being called to the polls on 4th October to give their judgment on a proposal by the Government which will have far-reaching consequences for Irish democracy if approved. The First Question: Consequences of Abolition I would ask every newspaper editor, every commentator, every political journalist, and every other citizen to look at the following passage, and to consider whether Abolition amounts to “reform”, whether it improves and strengthens Irish democracy, and whether any substantial case at all has been made for it. If the people vote to accept the Government’s proposal, there are radical and irreversible consequences. A “Yes” vote means

Just over two decades after homosexuality was decriminalised in Ireland, all the political parties represented in parliament and much of civil society came together to back marriage equality. But the campaign was led by a small group of gay and lesbian activists and the most powerful arguments for change came in the form of personal testimonies of individual gay men and lesbians.
