PILOT SCHEME PUTS YOUGHAL - CLASSIFIEDS - CLASSIFIEDS - COMMUNITY BUS ON SIX-DAY WEEK By Christy Parker TONY WALSH Youghal Community bus has extended its Thursday/Friday service to Monday to Saturday. The new schedule begins as a pilot service and will Grass & Hedge Cutting Services be re-assessed after two months. "Thursdays & Fridays are very popular but we think the need is there for a much broader service," says Tel: 024-98074| 086-2058925 Community Bus PRO John Cunningham, announcing the scheme. The bus, with wheelchair facility, operates a door-to-door service for those over 60 or anyone who is physically or non-physically incapacitat- SALE -SALE -SALE -SALE -SALE -SALE ed. Passengers summon the bus simply by ringing either the driver's serv- ice number or Cumann na Daoine. Operating within the three-mile town BIG REDUCTIONS IN CARPETS & FLOORING boundary, it is essentially a free service though a €2 donation per journey 3 PIECE SUITES FROM €895 is recommended and generally accepted. "But anyone declining or unable to contribute is still welcome," says Community Bus Treasurer Leslie UP TO 40% OFF ITALIAN LEATHER SOFA'S Godfrey. NED O CONNELL FURNISHINGS - 024-93106 Cumann na Daoine launched the service in 2009 as a hired bus under the auspices of hackney and bus operator John Long. A year later, St Mary's Senior Citizens Group in Knockaheeny donated a bus to the group, enabling it to strive and thrive more independently. However "it costs over €7,000 to maintain the bus, exclusive of any extra costs such as emergency driver cover," says John. "We rely almost totally on fundrais- ing and donations and Youghal people have been brilliant to us, " he adds. FAS currently funds the Thursday & Friday drivers but volunteer drivers with appropriate qualifications, are always needed, particularly given the new, extended hours. Equally volunteers are sought for the crucial role of 'driver companions' to assist passengers and the smooth running of the service.

  • Independent Alliance
    Independent Alliance Breda Burke Committee on Procedure and Privileges Standing sub-Committee on Dail Reform Dail Eireann Leinster House Dublin 2 1 16 h March 2016 Dear Breda, As instructed, please now find below the submissions for Dail reform, as proposed by the members of the Independent Alliance. Dail Reform The Independent Alliance is committed to fundamental Dail Reform. We are seeking that power be decentralised. Following the election, we believe there is a unique opportunity to return power to the Dail and reduce the power of the government. We believe the following measures are imperative for true Dail reform; a. The Independent Alliance will not be imposing any party whip, except on votes of confidence. This automatically rebalances power in favour of the Dail, against the cabinet. We would welcome a reciprocal gesture from other parties. If this is not possible for them on all aspects of Dail votes, perhaps parties might commit to removing the whip for certain topics? b. We believe the Taoiseach's prerogative on when to call a general election can be abused and manipulated to suit the Taoiseach of the day and their party, as opposed to acting in the country's best interest. For that reason, we want to remove this unique power and create stability and certainty for the lifetime of a government, thus increasing the work rate. For that reason we propose that Ireland follow the example of many other countries and introduce fixed terms for the Dail. There would of course be provision for an impromptu election if the Taoiseach fails to retain the support or confidence of a majority of the Dail.

Ogles Interim Dean, College of Arts and Sciences GREENWALD, JESSICA E. M.A. August 2005. Geography PowerU In Place-Names: A Case Study Of Present Day Waterford County, Ireland (85U pp.) Director of Thesis: Timothy Anderson This study investigates the present day toponymns of Waterford County, Ireland. By using the Land Ordnance Survey of Ireland maps, a database was created with the place names of the county. This study draws upon both traditional and contemporary theories and methods in Geography to understand more fully the meaning behind the place names on a map. In the “traditional” sense, it focuses on investigating changes in the landscape wrought by humans through both time and space (the naming of places). In a more “contemporary” sense, it seeks to understand the power relationships and social struggles reflected in the naming of places and the geography of those names. As such, this study fills a void in the current toponymns and cartographic literature, which are both focused mainly on patterns of diffusion and power struggles in North America.
