Passport Delays and EU Law Legal Privilege
Journal of the Bar of Ireland • Volume 15 • Issue 4 • July 2010 Passport Delays and EU Law Legal Privilege FAMILY Mediation Training & Professional Accreditation Programmes 2010 ENNIS: Tues 14th to Sat 18th September 2010 CHARLEVILLE: Tues 2nd to Sat 6th November 2010 Fees: €4,250.00 REDUCED TO €2,850.00 ► Friarylaw’s Family Mediation Training & Professional Accreditation Programme is specifically designed for the resolution of Domestic Relations and Matrimonial disputes. It is a five day programme which also contains the initial half day mini review available to Civil & Commercial candidates, followed by four and a half days of practical family mediation training provided by experienced family mediators and trainers, lawyer and non-lawyer. It also concludes with a final day video recorded simulated mediation, together with a further 12-16 hours post course independent study. ► For Civil & Commercial Accredited Mediators who wish to now obtain the Family Mediation Accreditation, special provisions are in place to attend on the programme for three days at the cost of €1,650. ► Friarylaw are one of the leading mediation service providers in Ireland. In February 2010 we launched a Family Mediation Training Programme in conjunction with Family Mediation Ireland. This training is unique to the Irish market and is based upon the successful methodology adopted by Family Mediation Ireland in the conduct of mediations during the past twelve months. It involves co-mediation and applies an approach to family mediation of both plenary session and private caucusing. An important characteristic of the training is the guarantee of pupilage opportunities by Family Mediation Ireland to Friarylaw panelist graduates of the programme. -
Water Wars in Ireland
new masses: ireland and armenia In this number, nlr’s ‘New Masses, New Media’ series examines the character of the recent protests in Armenia and Ireland, both sparked by price hikes for basic goods: electricity in one case, water in the other. Comparable in population—4.5m and 3m, respectively—Ireland as a whole is three times the size of Armenia. Historically, both have been shaped by their location between two imperial powers: Britain and America, Turkey and Russia. If there is an eerie parallel in the numbers estimated to have perished in the Irish Famine and the Armenian Genocide—between 800,000 and a million—the deliberately exterminationist policies of the Young Turks are of a different order of political and moral malignity to the laissez-faire arrogance of English colonialism. A mark of these dark pasts, in both cases the diaspora significantly outweighs the domestic population. In recent times, both countries have figured on the margin of larger economic unions, the eu and cis; as a result, their trajectories in the 1990s were diametrically opposed. Armenia had been a high-end industrial hub within the Soviet Union, specializing in machine goods and electronic products. Already hit by the 1988 earthquake, its economy suffered one of the sharpest contractions of the former ussr as industrial disruption was exacerbated by war and blockade. From $2.25bn in 1990, Armenian gdp dropped to $1.2bn in 1993; it did not recover to its Soviet-era level until 2002. By that time, the population had fallen by 15 per cent, from 3.54m in 1990 to barely 3m; by 2013 it was down to 2.97m. -

The Reemergence of Emigration from Ireland
THE RE-EMERGENCE OF EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND NEW TRENDS IN AN OLD STORY By Irial Glynn with Tomás Kelly and Piaras Mac Éinrí TRANSATLANTIC COUNCIL ON MIGRATION THE RE-EMERGENCE OF EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND New Trends in An Old Story By Irial Glynn with Tomás Kelly and Piaras Mac Éinrí December 2015 Acknowledgments Much of the research on which this report is based was carried out as a result of a one-year Irish Research Council grant, which enabled the completion of the EMIGRE (“EMIGration and the propensity to REturn”) project at University College Cork between October 2012 to September 2013. The resulting paper was completed with the support of a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship within the 7th European Community Framework Program. Thanks go to Natalia Banulescu-Bogdan and Kate Hooper from the Migration Policy Institute for their insightful comments on earlier drafts. This research was commissioned by the Transatlantic Council on Migration, an initiative of the Migration Policy Institute (MPI), for its twelfth plenary meeting, held in Lisbon. The meeting’s theme was “Rethinking Emigration: A Lost Generation or a New Era of Mobility?” and this paper was one of the reports that informed the Council’s discussions. The Council is a unique deliberative body that examines vital policy issues and informs migration policymaking processes in North America and Europe. The Council’s work is generously supported by the following foundations and governments: Open Society Foundations, Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Barrow Cadbury Trust, the Luso- American Development Foundation, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, and the governments of Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden. -

THE PEACE PROCESS in COLOMBIA Statement by Eamon
THE PEACE PROCESS IN COLOMBIA Statement by Eamon Gilmore, EU Special Representative to the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Foreign Affairs, April 4, 2019. A Chathaoirligh, A Theachtai agus Seanadoiri: Go raibh maith agaibh, as an cuireadh bheith libh ar maidin, chun cur sios gearr a dheanamh ar mo chuid oibre ar son an Aontas Eorpaigh, i dtaobh an proiseas siochana sa Choloim. Ta me sasta bhur gceisteanna a thogail tar eis mo raiteas. In October 2015, I was appointed by the High Representative, Vice President Federica Mogherini, as the EU Special Envoy for the Peace Process in Colombia. My role was to accompany the concluding stages of the Peace Negotiations between the Government of Colombia, and FARC which were taking place in Havana, Cuba, and thereafter, to accompany the implementation of the Peace Agreement, on behalf of the European Union. As the Committee is aware, a Peace Agreement was concluded in August 2016, to end the 52-year long FARC conflict, in which almost a quarter of a million people had been killed, 40,000 were still missing and 6 million people had been displaced from their homes. The Agreement was defeated in a National Plebiscite on October 2, 2016 (49.8% Yes; 50.2% No), was then renegotiated, and approved by the country’s parliament in December 2016, and all of this was subsequently upheld by the Constitutional Court. Implementation of the Agreement commenced on January 1, 2017. The Agreement, which took four years to negotiate, is very comprehensive, over 300 pages, and divided into 6 chapters which correspond to the 6 point agenda of the Peace Talks. -
