    KASPress Ireland 24.06.16 – 30.06.16 Welcome to KASPress Ireland, our weekly summary of relevant and interesting news from the Irish press. Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung News Summary London Office Top Story Minister for Foreign Affairs Charlie Flanagan has ruled out a Border poll following the Brexit referendum. He told the Seanad that although he understood the motivations of those who called for a referendum, for such a poll to be held, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland must determine that a majority of the electorate would opt for a united Ireland. At present, there was no evidence to suggest that would be the case. To read more on this story, click here. Politics Taoiseach Enda Kenny has landed himself in a Brexit row after telling EU leaders that Scotland shouldn't be "dragged out" of the European Union. Mr Kenny made the unprecedented intervention in front of British Prime Minister David Cameron at the European Council "on behalf" of Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon. To read more on this story, click here. Brexit will not affect Budget 2017 but its longer term effects on Ireland could be serious depending on what deal the UK agrees with the EU, Minister for Finance Michael Noonan has said. To read more on this story, click here. Enda Kenny yesterday clashed with members of the Independent Alliance, who are demanding a free vote on a bill that allows for terminations in cases of fatal foetal abnormality. The Taoiseach was forced to adjourn yesterday's Cabinet meeting without agreement after ministers Shane Ross and Finian McGrath had insisted that TDs should be allowed to vote with their consciences.

    European Anti-Poverty Network (EAPN) Ireland Guide to the 30th Dáil for Anti-Poverty Groups ‘EAPN Ireland is a network of groups and individuals working against poverty and social exclusion. Our objective is to put the fight against poverty at the top of the European and Irish agendas’ Contents Page Acknowledgements 2 Introduction 2 The Parties 4 Dáil Session Guide 5 A Brief Guide to Legislation 7 Dáil Committees 9 The TD in the Dáil 9 Contacting a TD 12 APPENDICES 1: List of Committees and Spokespersons 2: Government Ministers and Party Spokespersons 1 Introduction This Guide has been produced by the European Anti-Poverty Network (EAPN) Ireland. It is intended as a short briefing on the functioning of the Dáil and a simple explanation of specific areas that may be of interest to people operating in the community/NGO sector in attempting to make the best use of the Dáil. This briefing document is produced as a result of the EAPN Focus on Poverty in Ireland project, which started in December 2006. This project aimed to raise awareness of poverty and put poverty reduction at the top of the political agenda, while also promoting understanding and involvement in the social inclusion process among people experiencing poverty. This Guide is intended as an accompanying document to the EAPN Guide to Understanding and Engaging with the European Union. The overall aim in producing these two guides is to inform people working in the community and voluntary sector of how to engage with the Irish Parliament and the European Union in influencing policy and voicing their concerns about poverty and social inclusion issues.

    Fifth Meeting - 5pm on 10th July 2018 Private Dining Room, Leinster House In attendance: Chair Senator Michael McDowell SC, Senator Alice Mary Higgins, Senator Fintan Warfield, Senator Gabrielle McFadden, Senator Grace O’Sullivan, Senator Ivana Bacik, Senator Jerry Buttimer, Senator Maria Byrne, Senator Paddy Burke, Secretariat, Department of the Taoiseach: Síle de Búrca, Elizabeth Lyne Invited Experts: Franchise Section DHPLG (Fiona Quinn, Barry Ryan, Mairead Ryan), Dr. Maurice Manning, Mr. Joe O’Toole Apologies Dr. Brian Hunt, Jack Chambers TD, Senator Ned O'Sullivan, Senator Niall Ó Donnghaile, Shane Cassells TD, Shane Ross TD, Tommy Broughan TD Minutes 1. Minutes from 4th meeting agreed with 1 minor amendment. 2. The Chair introduced the invited experts: Franchise Section DHPLG, Dr Manning and Mr. O’Toole. 3. The Franchise Section discussed work underway on electoral reform including the forthcoming referendum on presidential elections and the Programme for Government commitment on the establishment of an Electoral Commission. While it was acknowledged that the role of the Franchise section on Seanad Elections is limited, it was noted there is strong potential for cross-over with the Group’s work. It was advised there is considerable benefit to ensuring proposals developed by the Group are transferable and modular to the other proposed electoral reforms. 4. It was agreed by all present that the Group’s final recommendations and legislation should be produced in alignment with the Franchise Section’s work. With this in mind, the Chair will ask Brian Hunt to draft a modular bill that could be enacted in parts. 5. Both Dr Manning and Mr O’Toole contributed their expertise and experience throughout discussions, particularly in respect of discussion on voluntary registration processes, the security of online voting versus postal voting, and implementation timeframes.

  • General Election 2011 Background After a Short Research Period, An
    General Election 2011 Background After a short research period, an internal consultation procedure and consultation with the Internet Memory Foundation (IM) the parameters of this project were defined as follows: 1. A focused/ thematic web crawl. 2. 100 sites. 3. Combination of election candidate sites, political party sites, political commentary sites and government sites. Site Selection Selection of sites was carried out by Della Murphy and Maria O’Shea of the National Library of Ireland. Crawl parameters The crawl of websites was undertaken twice, on the 21/22 February and again on the 10 March by our web archiving partners Internet Memory using the Heritrix web crawler. General Selection Criteria 1. Website presence. Websites were evaluated on the basis of use. Only those sites that received regular and recent updates were included. Token websites were in the main excluded. 2. Technical reasons. Websites that were ‘clunky’ or that contained substantial moving image (YouTube) or flash were more likely to be excluded as there was no certainty around final capture. 3. Cut-off date. Sites had to be selected by the 7 February which meant that some sites may not have been up and running in a meaningful way by that time and were therefore not included. 1 4. Women Candidates. Much has been made of the dearth of women candidates in this election. We consciously tried to include women candidates and have 9 out of 51 candidates, slightly higher than the national average at 17.6%. 5. Twitter is being captured by the Library of Congress (USA) so where decisions between sites for inclusion were tight our preference was for the non-Twitter sites.
