We are all following the Brexit negotiations with great interest, and hopefully we will see a successful conclusion in the coming weeks. Whatever the outcome, Brexit will have major implications for our country in the immediate future. As we approach the end of the year, we are preparing for the Local and European Elections which are scheduled to happen in 2019 – and preparing also for a General Election, which could happen at any time. We must and will be ready. In all three cases, we are dealing with significant boundary changes. The Local Elections, in particular, pose a significant challenge, with conventions required in 166 Electoral Areas. We expect to have the bulk of these completed before the end of the year. Due to the work of Fine Gael in Government, Ireland is on the right track. Now, we must ensure that to the greatest extent possible, every citizen is enabled to achieve their full potential. It is about fairness. It is about improving access to our health services; increasing the supply of affordable housing and making life better for families.

  • THE IRISH LEGISLATIVE GENDER QUOTA: Analysing Implementation & Outcome
    Bachelor Dissertation Seán Dunleavy - 15006816 European Studies – Faculty of Management & Organization The Hague University of Applied Sciences ………. THE IRISH LEGISLATIVE GENDER QUOTA: Analysing Implementation & Outcome ………. 08/01/2019 Supervisor: Dr. Krijtenburg Word count: 20,056 i The Irish Legislative Gender Quota: Analysing Implementation & Outcome Sean Dunleavy Executive Summary The title of this dissertation, “the Irish Legislative Gender Quota: Analysing Implementation & Outcome”, is specifically related to the Electoral (Amendment) (Political Funding) Act 2012, which requires political parties to field at least 30 percent candidates from the minority represented sex, with penalty for failure to comply resulting in a halving of state funding. Overall, given the difficulties observed during the 2016 general election campaign, and indeed now again in preparation for the next election, it is important to understand if these reforms are solely responsible for achieving increased female representation. Why difficulties during selection conventions are occurring, and how they can be best overcome. The main question is as follows: ‘Has the introduction of state mandated gender quotas for political party election candidates in the Republic of Ireland had the desired effects both in terms of implementation and ultimate outcome?’ Both qualitative and quantitative methods of research were conducted for this dissertation report. Qualitative research was used to collect and analyse, with the work of Irish academics Buckley, of University College Cork, Galligan, of Queen's University Belfast, & McGing, of Maynooth University, found to be of particular importance when detailing any aspect specific to Ireland. The majority of reviewed literature publications would take the form of academic journals and government sponsored publications.

In the consultations conducted throughout the country in the development of the National Childrenʼs Strategy (2000), the need for improved play and recreation facilities was the single biggest concern cited by p.1-2 children and young people. The report based on the research, was launched by the Minister for Children, Brendan Smith TD, at Larkin Community College on September 10 2007. Teenspace recognises that young people donʼt always want to participate in structured activities and that hanging out is a valid and important aspect of teenage life. ʻTeenspace promotes new initiatives and the need for interagency co-operation but also outlines a strategic approach to existing investmentʼ said the Minister. ʻTo invest wisely in the future, we need to involve young people in helping us to plan and design the facilities, which are most relevant to themʼ he added. Liz Canavan, Principal Officer in the Office of the Minister for Children, said: p.2 ʻitʼs fantastic to see the kinds of recreational innovations which are already happening and seem to be hitting the mark with young people. We need to mainstream these projects and foster more interagency collaboration by the way we invest in the futureʼ.
