Ask me your questions


In March, an Taoiseach Brian Cowen T.D. gave me the honour of joining his Cabinet team. As your Minister for Community, Equality & Gaeltacht Affairs, I represent your local and community interests as well as those of our national language.Since then, I have been working on the issues that matter most to you, including collaborating with my Cabinet colleagues to tackle the threat posed by head shops. Recently, an Taoiseach started a dialogue with you by asking for your views on his speech about the mistakes we have made and our policy responses to the banking crisis. Hundreds of you responded to his request, and some will soon be featured on the Fianna Fáil website.I want to continue that dialogue. That's why I'm inviting you to send me your questions and concerns about the issues that my department covers.I'll post some of the answers on the website and on YouTube. Submit your question now:


Your questions - which may cover any topic in my portfolio, from community, equality and rural affairs, to the National Drugs Strategy, to the future of the Irish language - will be the first step in what I hope will be a fruitful dialogue.You can submit your question via Twitter by including the hashtag #askpatcarey, or through our website by using the link below:http://www.fiannafail.ie/patcareyThank you,Pat Carey T.D.Minister for Community, Equality & Gaeltacht Affairs
A Chara,Ba mhór an onóir domsa é nuair a cheap an Taoiseach Brian Cowen T.D. mé mar chuid dá fhoireann Rialtais i mí na Márta. Mar Aire Gnóthaí Pobail, Comhionnanais agus Gaeltachta, táimse ann chun freastal a dhéanamh oraibhse agus chun dul i ngleic le na rudaí is mó go gcuireann sibhse spéis iontu go háitiúil agus ag leibhéal an phobail. Ar ndóigh, táim freagrach chomh maith as ár dteanga náisiúnta. Ó cheapadh mar Aire mé táim ag obair ar na cúrsaí is mó a bhíonn ag dó na geirbe agaibhse. Mar shampla táim ag obair i dteannta mo chomhghleacaithe Rialtais chun leigheas a fháil ar scéal na Headshops.Sin an fáth go bhfuilim ag tabhairt cuireadh daoibhse bhur gceisteanna a chur chugam faoi aon réimse a thagann faoi chúram mo Roinne. Cuirfidh mé na freagraí ar na ceisteanna seo ar line agus ar Youtube. Seol chugam bhur gceisteanna anois:
http://www.fiannafail.ie/patcareyIs féidir ceist a chur faoi ábhar ar bith a bhaineann le mo Roinnse - cúrsaí pobail nó comhionnanais, cúsaí tuaithe, an Stráitéis Náisiúnta Drugaí nó todhcaí na Gaeilge. Tá súil agam gurb í seo an chéad cheím again i gcomhrá a bheidh fiúntach.Is féidir ceisteanna a sheoladh tríd Twitter leis an hashtag #askpatcarey, nó ar ár suíomh idirlín ag an nasc thíos:http://www.fiannafail.ie/patcarey
Míle buíochas, Pádraig Ó Ciardha, T.D.
