Beidh seoladh oifigúil Scoil Gheimhridh Ghaoth Dobhair ar siúl inniu beo ar an chlár Coisir Cheoil ó Thigh Mhadáin i mBéal Feirste.

Ag labhairt ar an Clár úr Tréidliachta in Ollscoil Teicneolaíochta an Atlantaigh i Leitir Ceannainn a dhéanfaidh an tAire Breisoideachais agus Ardoideachais James Lawless a sheoladh go hoifigiúil tráthnóna inniu.

It was an incredibly busy week in Irish politics. Government, media and the general public were quite shocked by the resignation of Finance Minister Paschal Donoghue. Thus meant that Cabinet Ministries had to be reshuffled, and into the senior Ministry of Education and Youth came Hildegarde Naughten, a big achievement for Ms. Naughten, a first for Fine Gael in the Galway West constituency, and a first minister for the constituency since Éamon Ó Cuív was a minister back in 2011. We discussed and congratulated the appointment with Hildegarde Naughten. Staying with education now, and Scoil an Chroí Naofa National School in Ballinasloe has been waiting for a new school build for some 24 years. There've been a number of false starts and false promises, and the school has really intensified a campaign, searching for locals and people interested in this area to sign up and demand a school build to be put top of the agenda in the Department of Education. We discussed this on the programme with the Principal of Scoil an Chroí Naofa, Christine Connor. It's a pivotal time for the Irish farming community and farming in general right across the European Union. The Mercosur trade agreement will be debated and voted on in the European Parliament this coming Monday. ​Now, we've been discussing this throughout the course of the week on Galway Talks, and we had Ciarán Mullooly, Independent Ireland MEP for the Midlands–North-West constituency, on the programme. He has a number of concerns with the Mercosur trade agreement in its current form as they seek to get assurances that Irish farming will not be left uncompetitive with South American countries who may not be up to the regulatory standards that we have here in Ireland and across the European Union. ​We discussed this on the programme with MEP Mullooly and also farming in general. Now, as Ireland gets ready to hold the Presidency of the European Union next year, security of our nation and topics like neutrality really come to the fore. ​But the situation this week with the spy ship which is coming down by the coast of Scotland has really geared up talk on what the Russian threat exactly is and are we best placed and prepared here in Ireland to deal with that threat? ​We discuss it on the programme with Dr. Brendan Flynn, who is from the School of Political Science and Sociology at the University of Galway.

An Taisce Green-Schools is bringing its energy theme back to primary and secondary schools across the country this academic year, thanks to its continued partnership with EirGrid, operator and developer of Ireland's electricity grid. Plans for this year's programme were unveiled at an event in Adamstown Community College, Dublin, with plenty of exciting events due to be held across the country over the coming months to enable young people to expand their awareness around energy conservation. To date, over 3,000 schools have been awarded the energy flag since the beginning of the Green-Schools programme in 1997. In the last academic year, 2,200 students and 123 schools engaged in events including regional workshops consisting of hands-on activities, artwork and experiments, which allowed them to learn more about where electricity comes from and how they can take steps to reduce energy consumption. Speaking at the relaunch, Suzanne Collins, Head of Public Relations with EirGrid, said: "We are once again proud to partner with An Taisce Green-Schools for its energy theme, reaching students in classrooms across the country as they address energy consumption in their schools and communities. "It has been so inspiring to see the engagement in the theme over the last academic year, and shows the impactful steps young people are taking in bringing about sustainable changes in everyday life. "EirGrid is proud to play a continued role in empowering the next generation as they lead the charge in energy awareness." Joanne Scott, Green-Schools Programme Manager, added: "We are delighted to relaunch the Energy Theme to schools, and are thankful that EirGrid's support is allowing us to continue with this fantastic initiative. "From our engagement with students through our previous energy workshops, there is no doubt young people are enthusiastic about leaving a positive impact on their community, and the energy theme provides and invaluable opportunity to empower them to reduce energy consumption and be part of the conversation. "We recently awarded the Green Flag to Scoil Éinne, An Spidéal, for their outstanding work on the energy theme, and we look forward to working alongside more schools as they continue their journey towards achieving their own Green Flag." During the 2023-24 school year, schools saved a combined 18 million kWh of electricity, enough to make 58 million cups of tea, due to their participation in the Green-Schools programme, proving that interest in energy is strong among Ireland's school children.

Morley's Mouthfuls Traffic was again a big issue this week on Galway Talks, but it was traffic safety, not congestion, that dominated. I went out to Kinvara early on this week and spoke to some of the locals about some of the traffic safety measures they want to see in the village. They want urgently to have two pedestrian crossings, as well as, a number of other knock-on safety measures. It follows two accidents in the village over recent weeks, and they're calling on Galway County Council, TII, and all the relevant stakeholders to get safety measures in place as a matter of urgency. The Global Sumud Flotilla was boarded by Israeli forces this week as they tried to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. A number of the people who are on the boats, including Salthill poet Sarah Clancy, have been taken as captives and will be deported to their countries in due course, according to Israeli forces. ​Now, they maintain that they are trying to deliver humanitarian aid and are allowed to so by international law, making what Israel did a war crime. Israel says these people are going into their waters and that they need to make sure that there is no weaponry in this aid before it makes its way on to Gaza. ​There is increasing pressure on governments across the world from citizens to put pressure to bear on Israel to end the genocide. Insurance was again a topic of discussion this week. There have been recent hikes by three of the main four providera in the last week, seeing some premiums increase by as much as €600. This follows other increases throughout the course of this year by the majority of the four players in the market, with Level Health increasing theirs back in April. ​We had Dermot Goode, of Health Insurance Ireland on the show. He explained some of the reasons given for this increase in health insurance, including more people going to seek assistance in private health hospitals. ​He also gave some advice to our listeners as to what is best practice to find the best premium out there and the best deal for a given individual and family. He set out the pros and cons to having and not having private health insurance in this country. In a week where local Fianna Fáil Deputy Albert Dolan has brought out a tracker to allow the public to see the breakdown of tenders in the public procurement process, wastage of monies at a national level was very much to the fore again. It centered in and around the €100,000 tender for the bike shelter at the National Maternity Hospital. ​Now, Sinn Féin have called for this to be scrapped outright, while the government parties have said there is a tender process and to wait and see if someone can bring in a tender at an affordable rate. ​We discussed this on the program earlier on this week with Fianna Fáil Deputy John Connolly and Sinn Féin TD Mairéad Farrell. School transport came to the fore yet again this week after nearly a month since schools returned for the new academic year. We spoke to the grandmother of two children with language disorders who had to move to Loughrea to avail of a nearby school at the loss of the services they badly needed in Ballinasloe. ​We discussed this on the program with the grandmother of the children in question, Josephine Clarke. She was joined on the program by local Fianna Fáil representative in the Loughrea area, Michael Regan. ​She is calling for the Department of Education and the School Transport Office to get their school bus route back for her grandchildren so that they can fulfill their education to the full potential. Staying on the topic of schools, two schools in East Galway are still waiting on the go-ahead for much-needed expansions. ​For over 20 years, that's been the case for Carrabane National School in the Loughrea hinterland, but also for Scoil an Chroí Naofa in the Ballinasloe area, but that particular projects stretches out to nearly 30 years. ​We discussed what can be done to expedite the process and give final approval to both projects with Sinn Féin Deputy Clare Kerrane and Fianna Fáil Senator Shane Curley.
