The inflation rate in the Eurozone at 9.1%.

An ráta boilscithe i limistéar an Euro ag 9.1 faoin gcéad .

New preliminary figures from Eurostat, the statistics agency of the European Union, show that the inflation rate in the euro area reached its highest rate yet in August, a rate of 9.1%.

Léiríonn réamh-fhigiúirí nua ó Eurostat, áisíneacht staitisticí an Aontais Eorpaigh, gur bhain an ráta boilscithe i limistéar an euro an ráta is airde fós amach i Mí Lúnasa, ráta do 9.1 faoin gcéad .

This will put pressure on the European Central Bank to raise interest rates.

Cuirfidh sé seo brú ar Bhanc Ceannais na hEorpa rátaí úis a ardú.

The rising price of fuel due to the war in Ukraine is adding to the problem.

Tá praghas an bhreolsa atá ag ardú mar gheall ar an gcogadh san Úcráin ag cur go mór leis an bhfadhb.

The annual inflation rate in the euro area has risen from 8.9% in July to the highest level since record keeping began.

Tá an ráta boilscithe bliantúil i limistéar an euro ardaithe ó 8.9 faoin gcéad i Mí Iúil go dtí an léibhéal is airde anois ó tosnaíodh ag coiméad taifid ar na rátaí boilscithe.

The price of energy rose by 38.3% in August compared to 39.6% in July and prices for food, alcohol and tobacco were at 10.6%.

D'ardaigh praghas fuinnimnh 38.3 faoin gcéad i Mí Lúnasa i gcomparáid le 39.6 faoin gcéad i Mí Iúil agus bhí praghasanna do bhia, alcól agus tobac ag 10.6 faoin gcéad .

Today's new figures show that the inflation rate in Ireland fell back to 8.9% in August, from 9.6% in July.

Léiríonn figiúirí nua an lae inniu gur thit an ráta boilscithe in Éirinn siar go dtí 8.9 faoin gcéad i Mí Lúnasa, ón 9.6 faoin gcéad a bhí ann i Mí Iúil.

The Minister of Health has failed to register a place of residence with the RTB.

Teipthe ar an Aire Sláinte áit chónaithe a chlárú leis an RTB.

Health Minister Stephen Donnelly has confirmed that he has failed to register a residence he has let out with the Residential Tenancies Board since 2019.

Tá sé deimhnithe ag an Aire Sláinte Stephen Donnelly gur theip air áit chónaithe atá ligthe amach ar cíos aige a chlárú leis an mBord um Thionóntachtaí Cónaithe ó 2019.

A spokesperson for the Minister said today that it was a mistake and that the situation has now been rectified.

Dúirt urlabhraí ar son an Aire inniu gur dearmad a bhí i gceist agus go bhfuil an scéal curtha ina cheart anois.

It was said that the tenancy registration failed to be renewed in 2019 but that the situation was rectified last week.

Dúradh gur teipeadh an clárúchán tionóntachtaí a athnuachan i 2019 ach gur cuireadh an scéal ina cheart an tseachtain seo caite.

This story comes on the heels of the story of Deputy Dáil Robert Troy who resigned as Minister of State last week because he failed to give an accurate account of all his holdings.

Tagann an scéal seo sna sála ar scéal an Teachta Dála Robert Troy a d'éirigh as mar Aire Stáit an tseachtain seo caite toisc gur theip air cuntas beacht cruinn a thabhairt maidir leis na sealúchais ar fad a bhí aige.

In a statement from a spokesman for Stephen Donnelly this afternoon it was said that the Minister has a property with tenants who have been there for a long time and that the property was registered and that registration was renewed in 2011 and in 2015 but that it was forgotten in 2019 without renew the registration with the RTB.

I ráiteas ó urlabhraí de chuid Stephen Donnelly tráthnóna dúradh go bhfuil maoin le tionóntaí atá ann le fada an lá ag an Aire agus gur cláraíodh an mhaoin agus déanadh athnuachan ar an gclárúchán sin i 2011 agus i 2015 ach gur dearmad a bhí ann i 2019 gan an clárúchán a athnuachan leis an RTB.

Many students still left without a place on a school bus.

Daltaí go leor fágtha fós gan áit ar bhus scoile.

Hundreds of thousands of school pupils are returning to classrooms across the country this week but there are still many who are waiting patiently for a school bus.

Tá na céadta míle dalta scoile ag filleadh ar sheomraí ranga ar fud na tíre an tseachtain seo ach tá scata fós ag feitheamh ar shuíochan ar bhus scoile.

Many families have been denied seats due to huge demand this year since the Government decided not to charge parents due to the crisis in the cost of living.

Tá suíocháin diúltaithe do mhórchuid teaghlach i bhfianaise éileamh ollmhór i mbliana ó rinne an Rialtas cinneadh gan táille a ghearradh ar thuismitheoirí mar gheall ar an ngéarchéim sa gcostas maireachtála.

In a statement today, Bus Éireann said that applications are still being processed and that more tickets will be made available as soon as they have found additional buses and drivers.

I ráiteas inniu dúirt Bus Éireann go bhfuil iarratais fós á bpróiseáil agus go gcuirfear tuilleadh ticéad ar fáil chomh luath is a bheidh busanna agus tiománaithe breise aimsithe acu.

This morning Lucy McDonagh from Muine Mea in Galway and her three children, Nathan, Isabella and Rebecca were preparing for their first day back at school.

Ar maidin bhí Lucy McDonagh as Muine Mheá i nGaillimh agus a triúr leanaí, Nathan, Isabella agus Rebecca ag prapáil dá gcéad lá ar ais ar scoil.

Lucy and the children are one of 6 families in the area who have failed to get a ticket for the school bus, the first time ever.

Tá Lucy agus na leanaí ar cheann de 6 theaghlach sa dúthaigh a bhfuil teipthe orthu ticéad a fháil don bhus scoile, an chéad uair riamh.

Lucy's neighbor, Ellen Walsh and her two children Noah and Beth have been left without a ticket and without a way to school as well.

Tá comharsan le Lucy, Ellen Walsh agus a beirt leanaí Noah agus Beth fágtha gan ticéad agus gan slí chun na scoile chomh maith.

A total of twelve children from Muine Mea are without a ticket for the bus since they were all refused in the past month.

Dáreag leanbh ar fad as Muine Mheá atá gan ticéad don bhus ó diúltaíodh dóibh go léir le mí anuas.

It is a national problem, and the Government must act, says Sinn Féin.

Fadhb go náisiúnta é, agus ní mór don Rialtas gníomhú, a deir Sinn Féin.

In a statement, Bus Éireann, which is running the scheme on behalf of the Department of Education, says that the high number of applications they received this year has created difficulties and that there is a delay in issuing tickets as a result.

I ráiteas deir Bus Éireann, atá i mbun na scéime thar ceann na Roinne Oideachais, go bhfuil deacrachtaí cruthaithe ag an líon ard iarratas a fuair siad i mbliana agus go bhfuil moill ann ticéid a éisiúint dá bharr.

They say applications are still being processed and more tickets will be made available as soon as they have found more buses and drivers to accommodate the high numbers this year.

Deir siad go bhfuil iarratais fós á bproiseáil agus go gcuirfear tuilleadh ticéad ar fáil chomh luath is a bheidh busanna agus tiománaithe sa mbreis aimsithe acu le freastal ar an líon ard i mbliana.

Close to planning for energy, fuel shortages.

Dlús leis an bpleanáil maidir le ganntanas fuinnimh, breosla.

According to media reports today, the Emergency Energy Supply Group has stepped up its planning to ensure that energy is available for workers and essential services, in the event of power outages in the coming months.

De réir tuairiscí sna meáin inniu, tá dlús tagtha faoin bpleanáil atá ar bun ag an nGrúpa Éigeándála um Sholáthar Fuinnimh chun a chinntiú go mbeidh fuinneamh ar fáil d'oibrithe agus do sheirbhísí riachtanacha, i gcás bristeacha cumhachta sna míonna amach romhainn.

It was reported today that it is now being assumed that there are definitely power outages at the barriers.

Tuairiscíodh inniu go bhfuiltear ag déanamh talamh slán de anois go bhfuil bristeacha cumhachta ar na bacáin go cinnte.

Some Dáil MPs say the government must promise not to allow any more data centers to operate, but concerns have been expressed among government sources that cutting energy supplies to such centers could damage their reputation. of Ireland from a business perspective.

Deir Teachtaí Dála áirithe go gcaithfidh an rialtas gealltanas a thabhairt nach dtabharfaidh siad cead d'aon ionad sonraí eile dul i mbun oibre, ach léiríodh imní i measc foinsí rialtais go bhféadfadh gearradh siar ar sholáthar fuinnimh d'ionaid dá léithéid damáiste a dhéanamh go cháil na hÉireann ó thaobh chúrsaí gnó de.

"When we are threatened by a shortage of energy", said the Dála Deputy, Bríd Smith, Community Apart from Profit, "priority should be given to hospitals, to schools, to homes.

"Nuair atá ganntanas fuinnimh ag bagairt orainn", a dúirt an Teachta Dála, Bríd Smith, Pobal Seachas Brabús, "ba chóir tús áite a thabhairt d'ospidéil, do scoileanna, go thithe.

We were previously told that all the big international companies would leave if our corporation tax rate went up.

Dúradh linn roimhe seo go bhfágfadh na comhlachtaí móra idirnáisiúnta ar fad dá dtiocfadh ardú ar ár ráta cánach corparáide.

But it didn't happen.

Ach níor tharla sé.

Society is much more important than foreign direct investment anyway."

Tá an tsochaí i bhfad níos tábhachtaí ná infheistíocht dhíreach eachtrach ar aon nós."

It is hoped that fuel costs will be above two euros per liter at the pumps again from next week.

Tá súil go mbeidh costais bhreosla os cionn dhá euro in aghaidh an lítir ag na pumpaí arís ón tseachtain seo chugainn.

SSE Airtricity announced another rise of up to 39% in energy costs yesterday.

D'fhógair SSE Airtricity ardú eile de suas le 39 faoin gcéad ar chostais fuinnimh inné.

This is the second increase of this kind that has been announced by that company since May.

Seo é an tarna ardú dá leithéid atá fógartha ag an gcomhlacht sin ó mhí na Bealtaine.

Government sources say more hikes are expected soon.

Deir foinsí rialtais go bhfuil súil le níos mó arduithe gan moill.

There are only four weeks before the budget is announced and the opposition wants policies to be introduced that will reduce the pressure on the average consumer.

Níl ach ceithre seachtaine ann sula bhfógrófar an buiséad agus tá an freasúra ag iarraidh go dtabharfar isteach beartais a laghdóidh an brú ar an ngnáththomhaltóir.

Value added tax reductions, social welfare increases and direct energy credits could be involved.

D'fhéadfadh laghduithe cáinbhreisluacha, arduithe ar leas sóisialach agus creidmheasanna díreacha fuinnimh a bheith i gceist.

Red lines being drawn over English place names in Donegal.

Línte dearga á gcur thar logainmneacha Béarla i nDún na nGall.

The independent county councillor, Mícheál Cholm Mac Giolla Easbuig in the Donegal Gaeltacht, says that he does not condemn the spray paint damage done to bilingual road signs in that Gaeltacht and in areas outside it recently.

Deir an comhairleoir condae neamhspleách, Mícheál Cholm Mac Giolla Easbuig i nGaeltacht Dhún na nGall, nach gcáineann sé an damáiste le péint spraeála a rinneadh do chomharthaí bóthair dátheangacha sa Ghaeltacht sin agus i gceantair taobh amuigh di le déanaí.

But another independent councillor, Michael McClafferty, said that criminal damage like this does the language no good and that the taxpayer is paying dearly for the vandalism.

Ach dúirt comhairleoir neamhspleách eile, Michael McClafferty, nach ndéanann damáiste coiriúil mar seo aon mhaitheas don teanga agus go bhfuil an cáiníocóir ag íoc go daor as an loitiméireacht.

Llinta Letterkenny says that this type of protest is not a positive approach and that it would be better to engage in awareness campaigns.

Deir Líonta Leitir Ceanainn nach cur chuige dearfach é an cineál agóidíochta seo agus gurbh fhearr dul i mbun feachtais feasachta.

Road signs in Irish and English in Gaoth Dobhair and Clochchinnaola have recently been defaced with spray paint.

Tá comharthaí bóthair atá i nGaeilge agus i mBéarla i nGaoth Dobhair agus i gCloich Chionnaola scriosta le spraephéint le déanaí.

The English version is covered by the paint.

Is é an leagan Béarla atá clúdaithe ag an phéint.

But the county councillor, Michael McClafferty, from Fál Carrach says that a campaign like this is dragging the Irish language through the dirt.

Ach deir an comhairleoir condae, Michael McClafferty, as an Fhál Charrach gur ag tarraingt na Gaeilge trí shalachar atá feachtas mar seo.

He says criminal damage like this does the language no good and the taxpayer is paying dearly for the vandalism.

Deir sé nach ndéanann damáiste coiriúil mar seo maitheas ar bith don teanga agus gurb é an cáiníocóir atá ag íoc go daor as an loitiméireacht.

"There are other ways to draw attention to a policy: a complaint, a public petition and communication with the local authority, but not like this", he says.

"Tá dóigheanna eile ann le haird a tharraingt ar pholasaí: gearán, achainí phoiblí agus cumarsáid leis an údarás áitiúil, ach ní mar seo", a deir sé.

Two years ago, white tape was placed on English versions of road signs in the Gaeltacht and on versions that were extending towards the Lowlands.

Dhá bhliain ó shin cuireadh téip bhán ar leaganacha Béarla de chomharthaí bóthair sa Ghaeltacht agus ar leaganacha a bhí ag síneadh i dtreo na Galltachta.

One councilor wants all place names to be in Irish only.

Tá comhairleoir amháin ag iarraidh go mbeadh na logainmneacha uilig i nGaeilge amháin.

The independent consultant, Mícheál Cholm MacGiolla Esbuig, says that he does not condemn the latest damage at all.

Deir an comhairleoir neamhspleách, Mícheál Cholm Mac Giolla Easbuig, nach gcáineann sé an damáiste is déanaí ar chor ar bith.

"It's not just that I don't criticize him, but I would tell people to keep with the campaign you are fighting.

"Ní hé amháín nach gcáinim é, ach bhéinn ag rá le daoine coinneáil leis an fheachtas atá sibh á throid.

These people want to have a conversation about a policy for the Irish language.

Tá na daoine seo ag iarraidh comhrá a bheith acu faoi pholasaí don Ghaeilge.

They are trying to say that the language is dying, that the people of Tírconaill and the Gaeltacht here are dying.

"Teachers are struggling a lot" - the TUI.

"Múinteoirí ag streachailt go mór" - an TUI.

The Association of Middle Teachers, the TUI, has warned that the crisis is worsening in terms of recruiting and retaining teachers, due to the recent increase in the cost of living.

Tá rabhadh tugtha ag Cumann na Meánmhúinteoirí, an TUI, gur in olcas atá an ghéarchéim ag dul ó thaobh múinteoirí a earcú agus a choimeád, de bharr an mhéadaithe atá tagtha ar chostais mhaireachtála le gairid.

They also pointed out that the profession is less attractive to young people, due to the lower rates of pay paid to those who are going into teaching for the first time.

Thug siad le fios freisin nach bhfuil an ghairm chomh tarraingteach céanna go dhaoine óga, de bharr na rátaí níos ísle pá a íoctar leo siúd atá ag dul leis an múinteoireacht den chéad uair.

New teachers are demoralized, they say.

Tá lagmhisneach ar mhúinteoirí nua, a deir siad.

Previously, an allowance was paid to those who were teaching subjects, but this was abolished for teachers who qualified after 2012.

Roimhe seo, d'íoctaí liúntas leo siúd a bhí ina n-ábhar múinteora, ach cuireadh deireadh leis sin i gcás múinteoirí a bhain a gcáilíocht amach i ndiaidh 2012.

The TUI is demanding that the Department of Education refund the allowance to new teachers.

Tá an TUI ag éileamh ar an Roinn Oideachais an liúntas a aisíoc le múinteoirí nua.

The union indicated that teachers were happy not to accept a 1% pay rise due to them in February this year, on condition that the value of the allowance was paid back to them.

Thug an ceardchumann le fios go raibh múinteoirí sásta gan glacadh le hardú pá 1 faoin gcéad a bhí dlite dóibh i mí Feabhra na bliana seo, ar an gcoinníoll go n-íocfaí luach an liúntais ar ais leo.

"Teachers are very frustrated by the delay in this refund", says Liz Farrell, President of the TUI.

"Tá frustrachas an domhain ar mhúinteoirí de bharr na moille atá ar an aisíocaíocht seo", a deir Liz Farrell, Uachtarán an TUI.

She pointed out that schools have great difficulties in terms of recruiting teachers in urban areas.

Thug sí le fios go bhfuil deacrachtaí móra ag scoileanna ó thaobh múinteoirí a earcú i gceantracha uirbeacha.

And that there is a shortage of teachers available to teach specific subjects.

Agus go bhfuil ganntannas múinteoirí ar fáil chun ábhair ar leith a mhúineadh.

"Teachers are struggling with accommodation and transport costs", she says.

"Tá múinteoirí ag streachailt le costais lóistín agus iompair", a deir sí.
