SIRO, the ESB and Vodafone joint venture company currently rolling out a €1 billion Gigabit broadband network across Ireland, has announced that its services are now available to 50,000 homes and businesses in Dublin City, and to 100,000 premises overall across the wider Dublin area. The €100 million rollout is part of a strategy to make services powered by SIRO available to areas underserved by fibre to the home broadband. The expansion in the capital follows close collaboration with Dublin City Council's Telecoms Unit and with the broadband officers in the other three Dublin local authorities to advance its Dublin network roll-out. Within Dublin City Council's borders this includes 'new' SIRO areas such as Dublin's Docklands, East Wall, Walkinstown, Kimmage and Crumlin. SIRO's network is already well established in other parts of the city such as Fairview, Raheny, Finglas, Artane or Coolock. This is in addition to SIRO's expanded network footprint across the four Dublin local authority areas, which now encompasses more than 30 suburban towns from Balbriggan in Fingal as far south as Shankill in Dun Laoghaire Rathdown. SIRO plans to continue to build across Dublin city and county where other commercial opportunities exist. Lord Mayor of Dublin, Daithí de Róiste noted: "This is a really positive investment for Dublin, and I am delighted that the City Council have been able to support SIRO in the delivery of this essential digital infrastructure particularly in areas such as East Wall, Docklands. Kimmage and Crumlin. We need to ensure that all of our communities have access to high quality broadband services and are not left behind as the adoption of new technologies and digital services continue to accelerate." SIRO John Keaney Chief Executive Officer, noted: "The presumption that our cities already enjoy universal full fibre connectivity can be inaccurate. Poor broadband can exist in areas of our cities and its suburbs, just as much as it can be found in more remote areas. "Yet, future-proofed and reliable fibre connectivity is key to the economic life of our capital city and in all the communities which make up its constituent parts. "SIRO is rolling out our network across Dublin, city and county, because a real need exists to address existing connectivity blackspots. By now reaching areas underserved by fibre to the home broadband, such as the Docklands, East Wall or Crumlin and Walkinstown, we are striving to ensure these areas have the broadband infrastructure essential for the future wider social and economic development of the city," added Mr. Keaney. Smart City Program Manager at Dublin City Council, Jamie Cudden stated: "Investments like this from SIRO support our ambition to future-proof Dublin ensuring that we can take advantage of new and emerging technology trends. When we established our Telecoms Unit in 2022, we committed to work with the telecoms sector to help streamline and accelerate network rollout through better co-ordination and collaboration. The real winners here are communities across Dublin who will have access to world class digital infrastructure and choice of providers." SIRO is a joint venture between ESB and Vodafone, formed in 2015, to roll out a new full fibre broadband network across Ireland. To date, SIRO has rolled out network to every county in Ireland with its broadband network in over 135 towns and cities and available to almost 550,000 homes and businesses nationwide. The company is on track to reach 700,000 premises by 2026. More about Irish Tech News Irish Tech News are Ireland's No. 1 Online Tech Publication and often Ireland's No.1 Tech Podcast too.

About 90 per cent of primary schools in Ireland are Catholic in ethos. The figure is increasingly out of line with the religious makeup of the population. Last week, an Athlone primary school switched from Catholic to multi-denominational, the first such change of school ethos in a state-led pilot programme. But in other areas, like Dublin's Raheny, local opposition to such changes in school ethos has been strong. So when it comes to religion in schools, what is it that people really want? Irish Times education editor Carl O'Brien gives the background. David Graham of lobby group Education Equality and Seamus Mulconry of the Catholic Primary Schools Management Association give their sides of a debate that is still divisive.This episode is presented by Bernice Harrison. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The last story of 2022 concerned the reduction of religious instruction from 2.5 hours per week to 2 hours per week in the upcoming new primary curriculum. Lobby groups such as Education Equality and Atheist Ireland (and people like me) were unhappy that this tokenistic move was even newsworthy as it change almost nothing about the indoctrination of children in most schools. However, Dee from Raheny was not happy about the use of the word "indoctrination" and wrote a letter to the Irish Times denying any indoctrination occurs in her class. In fairness, Dee represents the vast majority of people in Ireland so I'm not picking on her. However, this episode is my response to her letter.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/yggjqny7 Boys being questioned about assaulting free girls. Buachaillí a bhí á gceistiú faoi ionsaí ar chailíní scaoilte saor. Three teenage boys questioned by Gardaí have been released in connection with an attack on girls at Howth Junction train station in Dublin last month. Scaoileadh saor triúr buachaill sna déaga a bhí á gceistiú ag na Gardaí faoi ionsaí a rinneadh ar chailíní ag stáisiún traenach Ghabhal Bhinn Éadair i mBaile Átha Cliath an mhí seo caite. A file is to be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions regarding the case and the Gardaí say they are still investigating the incident. Tá comhad le cur chuig an Stiúrthóir Ionchúiseamh Poiblí maidir leis an gcás agus deir na Gardaí go bhfuil fiosrúchán faoin eachtra fós ar bun acu. The girls appear to have been jellyfish, beaten and one of them fell under a train while trying to avoid a group of teenagers. Is cosúil gur caitheadh smugairlí ar na cailíní, gur féachadh le buillí coise a thabhairt dóibh agus gur thit duine acu faoi thraein agus í ag iarraidh buíon ógánach a sheachaint. Her friends rescued the girl who fell under the train. Thug a cairde an cailín a thit faoin traein slán. She was not seriously injured but is said to be extremely disturbed by the incident. Níor gortaíodh go dona í ach deirtear go bhfuil sí thar a bheith suaite ag an eachtra. The incident happened at around 9pm on April 1. Thart ar 9 a chlog san oíche ar an 1 Aibreán a tharla an eachtra. Gardaí in Raheny have launched a criminal investigation after examining images from security cameras and searching five houses in north Dublin yesterday morning. Chuir na Gardaí i Ráth Eanaigh tús le fiosrúchán coiriúil tar éis dóibh íomhánna ó cheamaraí slándála a scrúdú agus chuardaigh siad cúig theach i dtuaisceart Bhaile Átha Cliath ar maidin inné. They arrested the three boys on suspicion of being involved in a violent disorder. Ghabh siad an triúr buachaillí ar amhras go raibh siad bainteach le mí-ord foréigneach. Gardaí also seized clothing, bicycles and mobile phones. Thóg na Gardaí chomh maith baill éadaigh, rothair agus teileafóin phóca. They released two of the boys yesterday afternoon and the other last night without charge. Scaoil siad saor beirt de na buachaillí tráthnóna inné agus an duine eile aréir gan aon chúis a chur ina leith.
