Neither they nor the Department were able to prove what it had achieved. Now we all have a challenge – and the hope is – by NEW both sides taking ownership of the new Programme, we will be able to prove more effectively how the work on the ground benefits real PROGRAMME people. The LCDP must, however, ensure it avoids dismantling the community infrastructure that is now in place, much like Fr. MacGréil stopped needs to offer Iarnród Éireann from pulling up the railway line linking Galway to Limerick. The trains are now back on track, something that would never volunteers have happened if MacGréil hadn’t taken action. He even ended up in court and for a time faced a very hefty bill. Today, he’s lauded as a more hero by the State and by communities up and down the Western Rail Corridor. he new Local and Community Development Programme (LCDP) will be the Government’s main community-focussed, anti- Tpoverty programme by the end of the year. It is replacing two Programmes that it is considered necessary to amalgamate to create efficiencies in these recessionary times, setting clear goals and showing the effectiveness of spending.

  • Potential Outcomes for the 2007 and 2011 Irish Elections Under a Different Electoral System
    Publicpolicy.ie Potential Outcomes for the 2007 and 2011 Irish elections under a different electoral system. A Submission to the Convention on the Constitution. Dr Adrian Kavanagh & Noel Whelan 1 Forward Publicpolicy.ie is an independent body that seeks to make it as easy as possible for interested citizens to understand the choices involved in addressing public policy issues and their implications. Our purpose is to carry out independent research to inform public policy choices, to communicate the results of that research effectively and to stimulate constructive discussion among policy makers, civil society and the general public. In that context we asked Dr Adrian Kavanagh and Noel Whelan to undertake this study of the possible outcomes of the 2007 and 2011 Irish Dail elections if those elections had been run under a different electoral system. We are conscious that this study is being published at a time of much media and academic comment about the need for political reform in Ireland and in particular for reform of the electoral system. While this debate is not new, it has developed a greater intensity in the recent years of political and economic volatility and in a context where many assess the weaknesses in our political system and our electoral system in particular as having contributed to our current crisis. Our wish is that this study will bring an important additional dimension to discussion of our electoral system and of potential alternatives. We hope it will enable members of the Convention on the Constitution and those participating in the wider debate to have a clearer picture of the potential impact which various systems might have on the shape of the Irish party system, the proportionality of representation, the stability of governments and the scale of swings between elections.

Deputy Enda Kenny: We cannot have a sound economy without small businesses. Three years ago, 800,000 people worked in the small business sector, in tourism, services and manufac- turing. That number has declined to 700,000 and on current projections is likely to further decrease to 600,000 next year. The banking strategy set out by the Government has failed in so far as small businesses are concerned. The Taoiseach said that we will write whatever cheques are necessary. Those cheques have thus far amounted to €74 billion in taxpayers’ money. When the guarantee scheme was introduced, the Minister for Finance stated that the Government is deeply embed- ded in the banking sector and, as such, would bring leverage to it.

    01-03 IrGov:01-03 IrGov.qxd 25/06/2009 09:28 Page 1 1 THE GOVERNMENT AND THE TAOISEACH Structure and Scope of the Government The Constitution acknowledges that all powers of government derive, under God, from the people, whose right it is to designate the rulers of the state; that the state is to be governed in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution; that the executive power of the state is exercised by or on the authority of the government; and that the government is responsible to the Dáil. The government consists of not less than seven and not more than fifteen members. It is frequently referred to as the cabinet, though this term does not appear in the Constitution. The members are selected by the Taoiseach, and in the case of a coalition government by agreement between the leaders of the parties involved, and appointed by the President. No specific qualifications, beyond membership of the Oireachtas, are prescribed for membership of the government, but it is generally accepted that, in the selection of ministers, considerations of general ability, suitability for particular portfolios, personal popularity, service to or standing in the party and geographical location are matters taken into account. The Taoiseach may request a minister to resign, and if he or she refuses to do so, the President, on the advice of the Taoiseach, must terminate the minister’s appointment. The government meets and acts as a collective authority and is collectively responsible for the departments of state. The Constitution contains no specification regarding the number of departments (this depends largely on the preferences of individual Taoisigh), and if there are more than fifteen at any time, individual ministers are assigned responsibility for more than one department.

  • North South Ministerial Council Tenth Plenary
    NORTH SOUTH MINISTERIAL COUNCIL TENTH PLENARY MEETING FARMLEIGH HOUSE, DUBLIN 5 JULY 2010 JOINT COMMUNIQUÉ 1. The tenth Plenary meeting of the North South Ministerial Council (NSMC) was held at Farmleigh House, Dublin on 5 July 2010. 2. The Irish Government was led by the Taoiseach, Brian Cowen TD. The Northern Ireland Executive was led by First Minister, Peter Robinson MLA and the deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness MP MLA. A full list of the members of both delegations is attached as an Annex. The Taoiseach chaired the meeting. 3. Ministers had a comprehensive discussion of the fiscal challenges facing each jurisdiction and the measures they are taking to consolidate their budgets and to prepare for economic recovery. In the current difficult economic environment, Ministers emphasised the need to secure value for money across the full range of public sector expenditure. In this context they welcomed the ongoing discussions between the two Finance Ministers to identify potential cost savings through co-operation and sharing. 4. Ministers also discussed the significant level of co-operation underway to promote innovation to underpin economic growth and create employment, including the introduction of innovation vouchers on an all island basis, funding provided through the Programme for Research in Third level 1 Institutions, cancer research, increased cooperation in securing research funding under the EU Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) and the success of the US/Ireland/Northern Ireland Research and Development Partnership. They welcomed potential co-operation in the international promotion of joint capacity for Research and Development and encouraged work in the NSMC Trade and Business Development sector, on innovation, research and development and on an all island ecosystem for innovation.
