'Strong business case at Rossaveel Port' - New report.

'Cás láidir gnó ag Calafort Ros a Mhíl'-Tuarascáil nua.

There is a strong business case for developing a deep-sea port at Ros a 'Mhíl in the Connemara Gaeltacht.

Tá cás láidir gnó ann le calafort domhain-mhara a fhorbairt i Ros a' Mhíl i nGaeltacht Chonamara.

That's according to a new report published.

Sin de réir tuarascála nua atá foilsithe.

The report commissioned by the Department of the Marine has been judged by independent experts.

Saineolaíthe neamhspleácha atá tar éis an breithiúnas sin a thabhairt sa tuarascáil a choimisiúnaigh Roinn na Mara.

'But time is running out to decide' says the Port Support Committee.

'Ach tá an t-am ag rith gearr le cinneadh a dhéanamh' adeir Coiste Tacaíochta an Chalafoirt.

The Ros a 'Mhíl fishing fleet has a year-round vascular score.

Scór soithíoch atá i gcabhlach iascaireachta Ros a' Mhíl ó cheann ceann na bliana.

The new study from MWP and Raymond Burke Consulting says the € 25m cost of a deep-sea pier would be a huge benefit.

Deir an staidéir nua ó MWP agus Raymond Burke Consulting, go mbeadh tairbhe mór ar an gcostas €25m a bheadh ar chéibh dhomhain-mhara.

South West of the Údarás na Gaeltachta wind turbine area, and adjacent to 80 acres of State owned land, is expected to build the new pier.

Siar ó Dheas de limistéar tuirbín gaoithe Údarás na Gaeltachta, agus le taobh 80 acra talún atá i seilbh an Stáit, atá súil an chéibh nua a thógáil.

Under planning permission obtained by Ros a 'Mhíl Port from the County Council almost 4 years ago.

Faoin gcead pleanála a fuair Calafort Ros a' Mhíl ón gComhairle Condae beagnach 4 bliana ó shin.

There is less than 15 months left to undertake the work, so 'the Department of the Marine', says the local Committee, 'must make a decision, very briefly'.

Níos lú ná 15 mí atá fanta le tabhairt faoin obair, mar sin 'ní mór do Roinn na Mara', adeir an Coiste áitiúil, 'cinneadh a dhéanamh, go rí-ghairid'.

"Opportunity to come before cyber attack wasted" - PwC.

"Deiseanna teacht roimh chibirionsaí curtha amú" - PwC.

A new report from PwC advisers says hackers had access to the Health Service Executive's computer system eight weeks before they attacked the computer system with malicious software.

Deirtear i dtuarascáil nua ó chomhairleoirí PwC go raibh bealach isteach i gcóras ríomhaireachta Fheidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte ag lucht haiceála ocht seachtaine sular ionsaigh siad an ríomhchóras le bogearraí mailíseacha.

The computer system was severely damaged by the cyber attack last May.

Rinneadh an-dochar don ríomhchóras mar gheall ar an gcibirionsaí i mí na Bealtaine seo caite.

The report suggests that the Health Service Executive had many opportunities to come before the attack, especially after a person or persons in the organization opened a phishing email from the hackers on 1 March.

Tugtar le fios sa tuarascáil go raibh neart deiseanna ag Feidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte teacht roimh an ionsaí, go háirthe tar éis do dhuine nó do dhaoine san eagraíocht ríomhphost fioscaireachta ó na bradaithe a oscailt ar an 1 Márta.

It was this email that allowed the hackers into the computer system.

Ba é an ríomhphost sin a lig na haiceálaithe isteach sa ríomhchóras.

The report also states that the Executive 's computer system was vulnerable at the time and that the organization did not have the appropriate expertise or resources to deal with such a crisis.

Deirtear sa tuarascáil chomh maith go raibh ríomhchóras na Feidhmeannachta ag an am leochaileach agus nach raibh an saineolais cuí ná dóthain acmhainní san eagraíocht chun dul i ngleic le géarchéim den sórt sin.

In fact, the hackers used to be armed with relatively common tricks and software while committing the treachery.

Go deimhin, bhain na haiceálaithe armáil as cleasa agus bogearraí réasúnta coitianta agus iad i mbun an fheillbhirt.

Between March 1 and May 14 - the day the attack was launched - the e-pirates managed to gain access to a number of servers and accounts believed to be roofed on attack.

Idir an 1 Márta agus an 14 Bealtaine - an lá a tionscnaíodh an t-ionsaí - d'éirigh leis na ríomhfhoghlaithe dul isteach i roinnt freastalaithe agus i gcuntais a creideadh a bhí díonta ar ionsaí.

During that time, say PwC advisers, a number of hospitals informed the Executive that malicious activity was taking place in their own computer systems but the significance of the situation was not understood at the time.

I gcaitheamh na tréimhse sin, a deir comhairleoirí PwC, chuir roinnt ospidéal in iúl don Fheidhmeannacht go raibh gníomhaíocht mhailíseach ar bun ina gcuid ríomhchóras féin ach níor tuigeadh tábhacht an scéil ag an am.

PwC states that the Executive lacks leadership in information technology and recommends the establishment of two new senior positions in this area in the space - free organization.

Deir PwC go bhfuil móreasnamh ceannasaíochta i gcúrsaí teicneolaíochta faisnéise san Fheidhmeannacht agus molann siad dhá phost shinsearacha nua sa réimse sin a bhunú san eagraíocht gan spás.

They also recommend constant monitoring of the organization's computer system.

Molann siad freisin monatóireacht shíoraí a dhéanamh ar ríomhchóras na heagraíochta.

In a statement, the Executive said it had implemented strict cybersecurity policies since the hack attack seven months ago.

I ráiteas, dúirt an Fheidhmeannacht go bhfuil beartais dian-chibearshlándála curtha i bhfeidhm acu ó tharla an t- ionsaí haiceála seacht mí ó shin.

It is believed that the criminal gang known as the Spider Wizard was responsible for the attack.

€ 100 electricity credit to be allowed by Government.

Creidmheas leictreachais €100 le lamháil ag an Rialtas.

The Government intends to provide an electricity credit of € 100 to every household in the State this winter.

Tá rún ag an Rialtas creidmheas leictreachais €100 a chur ar fáil do gach líon tí sa Stát an geimhreadh seo.

It will be a one - off credit with the Government's aim to help those currently struggling with energy bills.

Creidmheas aon uaire a bheas ann agus é mar aidhm ag an Rialtas cuidiú le daoine atá ag streachailt le billí fuinnimh faoi láthair.

According to figures released by the Central Statistics Office yesterday, electricity and gas charges have risen by 29% in a year.

De réir figiúirí a d'fhoilsigh an Phríomh-Oifig Staidrimh inné, tháinig ardú 29 faoin gcéad ar tháillí leictreachais agus gáis le bliain.

Under the Government's plan, electricity companies will charge customers' € 100 periodic bills.

Faoi phlean an Rialtais, gearrfaidh na comhlachtaí leictreachais €100 de bhillí tréimhsiúla custaiméirí.

There will be no means or property testing and business premises will not be included in the scheme.

Ní bheidh aon tástáil achmainne ná maoine i gceist agus ní áireofar ionaid ghnó sa scéim.

The scheme is estimated to cost approximately € 170 million and will come from the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications' budget.

Meastar go gcosnóidh an scéim thart ar €170 milliún agus gurb as buiséad na Roinne Comhshaoil, Aeráide agus Cumarsáide a thiocfas an t-airgead sin.

The matter will be discussed at the Government's weekly meeting next Tuesday.

Pléifear an scéal ag cruinniú seachtainiúil an Rialtais Dé Máirt seo chugainn.

In the Dáil yesterday, Sinn Féin's Pearse Doherty called on the Government to come to the aid of distressed households and provide them with an electricity subsidy or to reduce the value - added tax on bills.

Sa Dáil inné, d'éiligh Pearse Doherty ó Shinn Féin ar an Rialtas teacht i gcabhair ar theaghlaigh atá in anó agus fóirdheontas leictreachais a chur ar fáil dóibh, é sin nó an cháin bhreisluacha ar bhillí a laghdú.

Financial support schemes extended.

Síneadh curtha le scéimeanna tacaíochta airgeadais.

The Government has confirmed that the Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme will not be cut as planned in light of the implementation of the new Covid-19 restrictions.

Tá sé deimnithe ag an Rialtas nach gciorrófar an Scéim Fóirdheontais Pá Fostaíochta mar a bhí beartaithe i bhfianaise srianta nua covid 19 a bheith curtha i bhfeidhm.

Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe has indicated that the current payment rates will continue for a further two months to help the entertainment sector in particular.

Thug an tAire Airgeadais Paschal Donohoe le fios go leanfar de na rátaí íocaíochta atá ann faoi láthair ar feadh dhá mhí breise chun teacht i gcabhair ar an earnáil siamsaíochta go háirithe.

From 1 February 2022, he said, there will be two rates, namely, € 203 per week and € 151.50 per week.

Ón 1 Feabhra 2022, a dúirt sé, beidh dhá ráta i gceist, mar atá, €203 sa tseachtain agus €151.50 sa tseachtain.

From the beginning of March to the end of April, it will be € 100 a week.

Ó thús an Mhárta go deireadh an Aibreáin, is €100 sa tseachtain a bheas i gceist.

The scheme will end on 30 April.

Scoirfear den scéim ar an 30 Aibreán.

The Covid Restriction Support Scheme is also being extended to assist nightclubs in particular.

Tá síneadh á chur chomh maith leis an Scéim Tacaíochta Srianta Covid le cuidiú le clubanna oíche go háirithe.

Under the latest restrictions, nightclubs will not reopen until the second week of January.

De réir na srianta is deireanaí, ní osclófar clubanna oíche arís go dtí an dara seachtain den mhí Eanáir.

Minister for Public Expenditure Michael McGrath has announced that the commercial rate waiver will also be extended - until the end of March.

Chuir an tAire Caiteachais Phoiblí Michael McGrath in iúl go gcuirfear síneadh freisin - go dtí deireadh an Mhárta - leis an tarscaoileadh ar rátaí tráchtála.

Minister McGrath said that since the beginning of the pandemic, the Government has provided over € 20 billion in financial supports.

Dúirt an tAire McGrath go bhfuil os cionn €20 billiún i dtacaíochtaí airgeadais curtha ar fáil ag an Rialtas ó thús na paindéime.

Its energy consumed by the storm - almost.

A fuinneamh caite ag an stoirm - beagnach.

Parts of Donegal town have been flooded after the Fishery river overflowed its banks due to the heavy rain that fell in the area during the storm.

Tá codanna de bhaile Dhún na nGall faoi uisce tar éis d'abhainn na hIascaí cur thar a bruacha mar gheall ar an bhfearthainn throm a thit sa cheantar le linn na stoirme.

Donegal County Council firefighters and engineers are draining water from the streets in the hope that it will not leak into buildings in the town.

Tá lucht dóiteáin agus innealtóirí Chomhairle Chontae Dhún na nGall ag taoscadh uisce ó na sráideanna le súil nach sceithfidh sé isteach i bhfoirgnimh ar an mbaile.

Wind speeds in parts of Donegal in the morning were between 100 and 120 kilometers per hour.

Bhí luas idir 100 agus 120 ciliméadar san uair faoin ngaoth in áiteanna i nDún na nGall ar maidin.

Some 20,000 homes and businesses are still without electricity, especially in the west and northwest.

Tá thart ar 20,000 áras cónaithe agus ionad gnó fós gan soláthar leictreachais, go háirithe san iarthar agus san iarthuaisceart.

Although Storm Barra has exhausted its energy, say meteorologists, the country has not yet survived the poison of the elements and will remain cold and windy in most parts of the country.

Cé go bhfuil a fuinneamh caite ag Stoirm Barra, a deir na meitéareolaithe, níl an tír tagtha slán ó nimh na ndúl fós agus beidh sé fuar agus gaofar i gcónaí i mbunáite na tíre.

Met Éireann says there will be strong winds this afternoon and tonight in Connacht, and in north and east Leinster.

Deir Met Éireann go mbeidh gaoth an- láidir tráthnóna agus anocht i gConnachta, agus i dtuaisceart agus in oirthear Laighean.

Support for the entertainment sector to be discussed by Government.

Tacaíocht don earnáil siamsaíochta le plé ag an Rialtas.

At a Government meeting today, the impact of Covid-19 on the country's hospitals and the economy will be discussed.

Ag cruinniú Rialtais inniu, pléifear an chaoi a bhfuil covid 19 ag dul i bhfeidhm ar ospidéil na tíre agus ar an ngeilleagar.

It is understood, however, that the meeting will not decide on new financial supports for the entertainment sector, which has been hit hardest by the latest restrictions.

Tuigtear, áfach, nach ndéanfar cinneadh ag an gcruinniú maidir le tacaíochtaí nua airgeadais don earnáil siamsaíochta, an dream is mó atá buailte ag na srianta is deireanaí.

Minister for Tourism and Culture Catherine Martin has indicated that the Government is committed to keeping entertainment venues open despite a 50% attendance limit at such nightclubs.

Thug an tAire Turasóireachta agus Cultúir Catherine Martin le fios go bhfuil an Rialtas meáite ar ionaid shiamsaíochta a choinneáil oscailte ainneoin teorainn 50 faoin gcéad a bheith ar thinreamh i leithéidí clubanna oíche.

Officials from Minister Martin appear to be working on a new plan for the entertainment sector in conjunction with the owners of the venues involved.

Is cosúil go bhfuil oifigigh an Aire Martin ag obair ar phlean nua don earnáil siamsaíochta i gcomhar le húinéirí na n-ionad atá i gceist.

Yesterday, Tánaiste Leo Varadkar said that the Government - both economically and morally - has come a long way in helping entrepreneurs in the entertainment sector.

Inné, dúirt an Tánaiste Leo Varadkar go bhfuil mortabháil ar an Rialtas - ó thaobh na heacnamaíochta agus na moráltachta araon de - teacht i gcabhair ar ghnóthadóirí san earnáil siamsaíochta.

He stated that Government Ministers were very sympathetic to the people of the sector and would do their utmost for them.

Chuir sé in iúl go raibh an-bhá ag Airí Rialtais le lucht na hearnála sin agus go ndéanfaidís a seacht ndícheall ar a son.

He said the Government would look at subsidizing live music venues, as well as other supports.

Dúirt sé go mbreathnódh an Rialtas ar fhóirdheontas a chur ar fáil d'ionaid cheoil bheo, chomh maith le tacaíochtaí eile.

It is expected, however, that no decision on the supports to be explored today will be made for another day or two.

Meastar, ámh, nach ndéanfar aon chinneadh faoi na tacaíochtaí atá le cíoradh inniu go ceann lá nó dhó eile.

Scheme to bring thousands of migrants to regularity approved.

Scéim chun na mílte imirceach a thabhairt chun rialtachta faofa.

The Government has approved a scheme to regularize thousands of undocumented migrants and their families living in Ireland.

Tá scéim ceadaithe ag an Rialtas chun na mílte imirceach agus a dteaghlaigh atá gan cáipéisí agus ina gconaí in Éirinn a thabhairt chun rialtachta.

Under the scheme, the Department of Justice states that migrants who are eligible to apply will be allowed to remain in the State and their residency status will be regularized.

Faoin scéim, deir an Roinn Dlí agus Cirt go mbeidh cead ag imircigh atá i dteideal iarratas a dhéanamh fanacht ag cur futhu sa Stát agus déanfar a stádas cónaitheachta a thabhairt chun rialtachta.

Long-term undocumented migrants and their dependents will benefit from the scheme.

Bainfidh imiricigh atá gan cáipéisí go fad-téarmach agus a gcleithiúnaigh leas as an scéim.

Justice Minister Helen McEntee said these people live and work in communities across the country and their children are going to school here.

Dúirt an tAire Dlí agus Cirt Helen McEntee go bhfuil na daoine seo ina gconaí agus ag obair i bpobail ar fud na tíre agus go bhfuil a gcuid páistí ag dul ar scoil anseo.

She said that they are in a very vulnerable situation and that it is important that they are able to stay here and be part of the Irish community.

Dúirt sí go bhfuil siad i gcás thar a bheith leochaileach agus go bhfuil sé tábhachtach go mbeadh siad in ann fanacht anseo agus a bheith páirteach i bpobal na hÉireann.

It will be possible to apply for the scheme in January and applications will be accepted for 6 months.

Beifear in ann iarratas a dhéanamh ar an scéim i Mí Eanáir agus glacfar le hiarratais ar feadh 6 mhí.

Applicants for the scheme must be resident in the State undocumented for 4 years or 3 years in the case of those with children.

Caithfidh daoine a bheidh ag cur isteach ar an scéim a bheith ina gconaí sa Stát gan cáipéisí ar feadh 4 bliana nó ar feadh 3 bliana i gcás iad siúd le páistí.

Successful people will have access to the job market and will be able to begin the process of achieving citizenship.

Beidh cead ag daoine a n-éireoidh leo, fáil a bheith acu ar an margadh fostaíochta agus beidh siad in ann tús a chur leis an bpróiséas chun saoránacht a bhaint amach.

The Department estimates that there could be up to 17,000 undocumented migrants in the State, including 3,000 children.

Measann an Roinn go bhféadfadh suas le 17,000 imirceach gan cáipéisí a bheith sa Stát, san áireamh, 3,000 páiste.
