EOGHAN MURPHY TD Representing You in Dáil Éireann NEWSLEttER 04, 2012 Investigating Public Accounts The Public Accounts Committee recently published two reports: on the Irish Red Cross, and on VAT costs on the National Aquatic Centre. These are important documents produced by the one committee in Dail Eireann that is empowered to investigate public spending and whether or not value for money is being achieved for the taxpayer.

Ireland and Nato: Challenges and Opportunities
DR. STEVEN MURPHY IRELAND AND NATO: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES SSANSE PROJECT IRELAND AND NATO: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES 2 Introduction Modern Irish defence and security concerns have received limited attention both domestically and internationally. Ireland’s long-held stance of military neutrality, secure geo-strategic neighoburhood, and the lack of a coherent military tradition largely explain the paucity of interest. However, Ireland’s role in the EU’s Common Defence and Security Policy (CSDP) and the country’s relationship with NATO have been the source of some domestic public controversy. Since joining NATO’s Partnership for Peace (PfP) programme in 1999, Ireland has made important contributions to peacekeeping operations through this programme. Nonetheless, Ireland’s relationship with NATO has been characterized as ‘reluctant’ and ‘cautious’.1 Neutrality, and specifically the Irish electorate’s conception of neutrality, is the primary cause of reluctance. This paper seeks to contextualize Ireland’s involvement in the PfP and to explore the challenges and likely scope of future Irish-NATO relations. How this relationship will develop is largely dependent on domestic Irish opinion, resource prioritization, and the possibility of alterations in Ireland’s geo-strategic neighbourhood. For small states, the promotion of an international rules-based order is directly in their security interests to mitigate threats to their independence from larger powers. Since independence, Irish governments have sought the protection of collective security through multinational institutions such as the League of Nations, the United Nations (UN) and the European Union (EU). As a militarily weak small state, Ireland has sought to promote and enhance the effectiveness of conflict resolution through these international institutions.

CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY Address by the Minister for European Affairs Lucinda Creighton TD to the European Institute Washington DC, 30Th May 2013
CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY Address by the Minister for European Affairs Lucinda Creighton TD to the European Institute Washington DC, 30th May 2013 Ladies and Gentlemen, It is a great pleasure to be with you today in Washington D.C. You will be aware that the economic situation in Europe at present is worrying. In many countries economic stagnation is fuelling high unemployment, particularly among young people. The priority for European leaders is quickly becoming a race to save a potential lost generation and, in the worst case scenario, to avert the potential associated social consequences. There is no quick solution to the problems we face but European leaders have made remarkable progress in dealing with the Euro crisis over the past two years. 1 We’ve agreed new procedures to track deficits and imbalances, to monitor national budgets and to integrate our economies more closely. We’re working on new rules for the supervision of banks and have created funds to act as the shock absorbers required when 17 diverse economies share a single currency. The European Central Bank has declared it is ready “to do whatever it takes” to save the Euro. However, unfortunately we cannot legislate for growth or decree that it be so. We have to create the conditions and to-date we have been doing so too slowly. In recent weeks you will have heard calls for an “end to austerity”, that we should begin to spend our way to recovery. Governments are not spending because in many cases the treasuries are bare. International financiers prudently require an assurance that countries have some ability to repay their debts.

Reforming Dáil Éireann a View from the Backbenches
Reforming Dáil Éireann A view from the backbenches Eoghan Murphy TD Dear Colleague, The following pamphlet contains suggestions for debate in the Parliamentary Party on how to reform Dáil Éireann further in order to better meet people’s expectations of the national parliament. What is proposed is a series of simple procedural measures, changes to how we do our work that should improve the Oireachtas and Dáil for ourselves and for the public; changes that do not require new legislation or constitutional reform, but simply political will on our part. It is only one view – a view from the backbenches. Its purpose is to stimulate and assist discussion within the Fine Gael Parliamentary Party on the reform agenda. This document builds upon previous work in this area by Fine Gael, as well as on this government’s determination to introduce radical reform, as outlined in Fine Gael and Labour’s Government for National Recovery 2011-2016 programme. Eoghan Murphy TD, March 2013 Reforming Dáil Éireann 2 CONTENTS Introduction Why we need to change the way we think about Dáil Éireann A list of proposed reforms Section 1 Reforming the Whip System Section 2 Reforming the Committee System Section 3 Reforming how we do business in the chamber Reforming Dáil Éireann 3 Why we need to change the way we think about Dáil Éireann “Political failure lies at the heart of Ireland’s economic collapse” (Fine Gael New Politics document, February 2011). Though it will never have popular interest, reforming Dáil Éireann is one of the most critical yet understated challenges for the future of our country.

Russia's "Pivot" to Eurasia
RUSSIA’S “PIVOT” TO EURASIA edited by Kadri Liik ABOUT ECFR The European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) is the first pan-European think-tank. Launched in October 2007, its objective is to conduct research and promote informed debate across Europe on the development of coherent, effective and values-based European foreign policy. ECFR has developed a strategy with three distinctive elements that define its activities: • A pan-European Council. ECFR has brought together a distinguished Council of over two hundred Members – politicians, decision makers, thinkers and business people from the EU’s member states and candidate countries – which meets once a year as a full body. Through geographical and thematic task forces, members provide ECFR staff with advice and feedback on policy ideas and help with ECFR’s activities within their own countries. The Council is chaired by Martti Ahtisaari and Mabel van Oranje. • A physical presence in the main EU member states. ECFR, uniquely among European think-tanks, has offices in Berlin, London, Madrid, Paris, Rome, Sofia and Warsaw. Our offices are platforms for research, debate, advocacy and communications. • A distinctive research and policy development process. ECFR has brought together a team of distinguished researchers and practitioners from all over Europe to advance its objectives through innovative projects with a pan-European focus. ECFR’s activities include primary research, publication of policy reports, private meetings and public debates, ‘friends of ECFR’ gatherings in EU capitals and outreach to strategic media outlets. ECFR is a registered charity funded by the Open Society Foundations and other generous foundations, individuals and corporate entities.

As a result of Brexit, the European Parliament was reorganised and the number of MEPs was reduced from 751 to 705. The twenty-seven remaining UK seats were reallocated to other member states. Ireland received an additional two seats, bringing the country’s total number of seats up to thirteen. The same constituencies as in 2014 were used with only minor border changes. Two constituencies received an additional MEP. Dublin moved from a three-seat to a four-seat constituency while Ireland South went from a four- to a five-seat constituency. The Midlands North-West constituency stayed the same with four seats. Given that the UK had not actually left the EU when the elections were held, the two additional MEPs were ineligible to take their seats until the UK had officially left the EU. In order to be eligible to compete in European elections, a prospective candidate must fulfil one of the following criteria: be nominated by a registered political party; have declarations from sixty people willing to support their candidacy; or pay a deposit of €1,800. These requirements are deemed relatively simple to meet and as such helped contribute towards a record number of candidates running for MEP in the state.
