The Joint Committee was appointed to consider public' affairs administered by the Department of Public Enterprise and matters of policy for which the Minister is responsible. This report was prepared by the Joint Committee and published in December 1998. The Joint Committee heard oral evidence and received written submissions from interested parties. The report of the Joint Committee contains minutes of the evidence that it heard as well as copies of the written submissions received. It synopsises the key issues that arise around this issue and also provides a summary of the views and concerns of the public as determined from the evidence heard and submissions received. The Joint Committee also forms conclusions based on its deliberations upon which it bases a number of recommendations. In its primary conclusion, the joint committee considers that the evidence available at the present time does not indicate an unacceptable health hazard from microwave emissions within the International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA) guidelines (IRPA, 1998) and does not consider that the precautionary principle should be invoked at this time. It states that in the event of such evidence becoming available, remedial measures would be put in place. While the Committee states that a comprehensive, up-to-date mobile phone network is essential to continued economic prosperity, it concludes that public information and consultation has not been ideal and that this has given rise to much of the concern around . the issue in Ireland. This has lead to what the committee calls "unnecessary fears and anxiety and false beliefs". It also expressed concern over the application of the planning process aro~nd the erection of these masts. It considers that the maximum possible use of co-location (using one tower for a second, purpose e.g. garda telecommunication mast/mobile phone base station) be made. It also considers that a "demonstrable independent monitoring system" should be put in place and recognises the concerns of community groups around the involvement of a statt'i agency in this process. The Committee then makes a series of recommendations based on these conclusions which are grouped according to five headings. I. Planning and exempt developments 2. Monitoring 3. Health 4. Public Information 5. Operators Planning and exempt developments It recommends the introduction of mandatory statutory guidelines which would have regard to the health and the well-being of the population. These guidelines should include a number of specified requirements and should provide for substantial penalties in the events of being breached. The guidelines should also provide a mechanism for community groups to access information from local authorities. It also recommends the introduction of Cl code of practice lor mobile phone mast development which is exempted under the planning acts. Monitoring , The committee recommends the appointment of an independent body from 1999 onwards to monitorall communication masts and emissions that arise from them. It recommends that this monitoring should include sufficient numbers each year to ensure that all masts are monitored randomly in a five'year period. Tt also recommends that this body be available to make paid measurements at the request of local community groups. They recommend that a database of masts be established and that monitoring should include a count of numbers of masts in each local authority. Health The Joint Committee recommends that the Department of Health and Children should set up a panel of medical experts from whom three could be selected for medical assessment purposes by individuals who believe their health to be affected by masts. If the finding of their medical examination confirms this, the fee paid by the individual will be repaid. The Joint Committee also recommends that the Department of Health and Children should include a statement in its forthcoming National Environmental Action Plan which would set out the up-to-date position in relation to microwave radiation and human health. They further recommend that the Department should supply information on health risks for inclusion in the annual report of the Director of Telecommunications Regulation. Public Information The Joint Committee recommends that the Department of Public Enterprise should put in place a suitable public information programme to inform the public on the facts concerning microwave emission from communications masts and their compliance with IRPA guidelines. Operators The Joint Committee recommends that the licence operators should adopt a policy of consultation with the public in the case of all developments which are exempt from planning permission. They also recommend that the operators examine the issue of indemnification with a view to its future provision. 17th December, 1998 Dr. Brian O'Herlihy, Director of Public Health. .j.

This was not always the case. Women in particular were excluded from many areas of public discourse. Reaching back into the 19th century, the distinction between public and private spheres was an ideological one. As men moved out of the home to work and acquired increasing power, the public world inhabited by men became identified with influence and control, the private with moral value and support.

These formats were popular from 1970-2000, formative years for the feminist movement. Scholarship suggests a correlation between radio and women’s issues in Ireland but does not answer what elements create this. Here, I analyze 10 archival radio clips from Ireland’s national public service broadcaster, RTÉ, looking at how women’s issues are framed. After analyzing these clips, I found that Irish identity embedded in the shows allows for the discussion of controversial ideas. Radio promotes an inclusive environment, by dispelling shame and encouraging political conversation among women. This allows women to hear and be heard, creating a space for equal representation. Introduction As I was sitting on a bus from Dublin airport back to my apartment in Cork City, I heard a late-night radio show playing on the bus speakers.

  • Transformative Illegality: How Condoms 'Became Legal' in Ireland
    Feminist Legal Studies (2018) 26:261–284 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10691-018-9392-1 Transformative Illegality: How Condoms ‘Became Legal’ in Ireland, 1991–1993 Máiréad Enright1 · Emilie Cloatre2 Published online: 20 November 2018 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract This paper examines Irish campaigns for condom access in the early 1990s. Against the backdrop of the AIDS crisis, activists campaigned against a law which would not allow condoms to be sold from ordinary commercial spaces or vending machines, and restricted sale to young people. Advancing a conception of ‘transformative ille- gality’, we show that illegal action was fundamental to the eventual legalisation of commercial condom sale. However, rather than foregrounding illegal condom sale as a mode of spectacular direct action, we show that tactics of illegal sale in the 1990s built on 20 years of everyday illegal sale within the Irish family planning movement. Everyday illegal sale was a long-term world-making practice, which gradually trans- formed condoms’ legal meanings, eventually enabling new forms of provocative and irreverent protest. Condoms ‘became legal’ when the state recognised modes of con- dom sale, gradually built up over many years and publicised in direct action and in the courts. Keywords Activism · Condoms · Contraceptives · Family planning · Illegality · Ireland · Law · Social movements The Case of the Virgin Condom On Saturday January 6, 1990, Detective-Sergeant John McKeown of Pearse Street Garda (police) Station entered the Virgin Megastore record shop on Aston Quay, near Temple Bar, in Dublin together with a female colleague.

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.
