An internal case has been initiated regarding a single soldier.

Tús curtha le cás inmheánach maidir le saighdiúir singil.

The Defense Forces of Ireland have begun an internal case regarding a soldier who pleaded guilty to brutally assaulting a woman who was left unconscious and speechless as a result.

Tá tús curtha ag Óglaigh na hÉireann le cás inmheánach maidir le saighdiúir a phléadáil ciontach in ionsaí brúidiúil a dhéanamh ar bhean a fágadh gan aithne gan urlabhra dá bharr.

In a court in Limerick yesterday, Single Soldier Cathal Crotty, aged 22, was given a three-year suspended prison sentence for the attack.

I gcúirt i Luimneach inné, gearradh trí bliana príosúin ar fionraí ar an Saighdiúir Singil Cathal Crotty, 22 bliain d'aois, faoin ionsaí.

In a statement, the Defense Forces declared that the internal case could not be started or that the civil case in court was over.

I ráiteas, dhearbhaigh Óglaigh na hÉireann nár féadadh tús a chur leis an gcás inmheánach nó go raibh an cás sibhialta sa chúirt thart.

The statement said that the soldier's Commanding Officer now had "various options" according to the Defense Forces Regulations.

Dúradh sa ráiteas go raibh "roghanna éagsúla" anois ag Oifigeach Ceannais an tsaighdiúra de réir Rialacháin Óglaigh na hÉireann.

The statement praised the woman who was attacked by Cathal Crotty – Natasha O'Brien, aged 24 – for her courage and prayed for her.

Moladh sa ráiteas an bhean ar ionsaigh Cathal Crotty í – Natasha O'Brien, 24 bliain d'aois – as a mhisniúla a bhí sí agus guíodh biseach uirthi.

Natasha O'Brien said yesterday, however, that it was neither right nor fair to impose a suspended prison term on the soldier.

Dúirt Natasha O'Brien inné, ámh, nach raibh sé ceart ná cóir téarma príosúin ar fionraí a ghearradh ar an saighdiúir.

The court was told that Cathal Crotty, from Ardnacroise in Co Clare, attacked Natasha O'Brien on O'Connell Street in Limerick on 29 May 2022.

Dúradh sa chúirt gur ionsaigh Cathal Crotty, as Ard na Croise i gCo an Chláir, Natasha O'Brien ar Shráid Uí Chonaill i Luimneach ar an 29 Bealtaine 2022.

Cathal Crotty had spent the evening drinking and when he started shouting insults at people in the street Natasha O'Brien asked him to stop.

Bhí an tráthóna caite ag Cathal Crotty ag ól agus nuair a chuaigh sé ag caitheamh maslaí le daoine ar an tsráid in ard a ghutha d'iarr Natasha O'Brien air éirí as.

It was then that he attacked her and hit her at least six times.

Ba ansin a d'ionsaigh sé í agus bhuail í sé huaire ar a laghad.

When the Gardaí first arrested him he told them it was the woman who started the altercation but when he was shown video from security cameras which showed otherwise he pleaded guilty to the attack.

Nuair a ghabh na Gardaí é ar an gcéad dul síos dúirt sé leo gurbh í an bhean a thosaigh an t-achrann ach nuair a taispeánadh físeán ó cheamaraí slándála dó a léirigh a mhalairt phléadáil sé ciontach san ionsaí.

It was also said that the soldier was complaining about the attack on the social media Snapchat.

Dúradh freisin go raibh an saighdiúir ag maíomh as an ionsaí ar an meán sóisialta Snapchat.

The Director of Public Prosecutions has four weeks to appeal against the leniency of the sentence but no announcement has yet been made.

Tá ceithre seachtaine ag an Stiúrthóir Ionchúiseamh Poiblí le achomharc a dhéanamh in aghaidh bhoige na pianbhreithe ach níl aon fhógra déanta faoi sin fós.

Justice Minister Helen McEntee praised Natasha O'Brien for speaking openly and bravely about the vicious attack on her...

Aer Lingus considering alternative options for passengers in pay dispute.

Roghanna eile do phaisinéirí á meas ag Aer Lingus in aighneas pá.

Aer Lingus will arrange alternative flights for customers, work with other airlines and hire extra planes if necessary, if flights are canceled due to the pilots' industrial dispute next week.

Eagróidh Aer Lingus eitiltí malartacha do chustaiméirí, oibreoidh siad le haerlínte eile agus gheobhaidh siad eitleáin bhreise ar cíos más gá, má chuirtear eitiltí ar ceal de bharr aighneas tionsclaíoch na bpíolótaí an tseachtain seo chugainn.

The company is assessing the impact of the industrial action of its pilots next week on their services.

Tá an comhlacht ag meas an tionchair a bheidh ag gníomhaíocht thionsclaíoch a bpíolótaí an tseachtain seo chugainn ar a gcuid seirbhísí.

The Irish Airline Pilots Association IALPA warned yesterday that they will operate according to the rules from Wednesday 26 June onwards.

Thug Cumann Phíolótaí Aerlínte na hÉireann IALPA foláireamh inné go n-oibreoidh siad de réir rialach ón Chéadaoin 26 Meitheamh amach.

This means that the pilots will not do any overtime or any other tasks outside of their official working hours.

Ciallaíonn sin nach ndéanfaidh na píolótaí aon ragobair ná aon chúraimí eile taobh amuigh dá n-uaireanta oibre oifigiúla.

They will not be willing to log into Aer Lingus portal systems or answer work telephone calls outside of working hours.

Ní bheidh siad toilteanach logáil isteach i gcórais tairsí de chuid Aer Lingus ná glaonna teileafóin oibre a fhreagairt taobh amuigh dá n-uaireanta oibre.

Aer Lingus says there is no loss with this action.

Deir Aer Lingus nach bhfuil aon chall leis an ghníomh seo.

The company says flights will be significantly disrupted and cancellations are likely.

Deir an comhlacht go gcuirfear as go mór do eitiltí agus gur dócha go gcuirfear eitiltí ar ceal.

"IALPA was determined to announce industrial action, and as such they have decided to cause serious harm to Aer Lingus customers and other employees," said Donal Moriarty, Aer Lingus Corporate Affairs Officer.

"Bhí rún daingean ag IALPA gníomhaíocht thionsclaíoch a fhógairt, agus dá réir sin tá cinneadh déanta acu dochar mór a dhéanamh, d'aon turas, de chustaiméirí agus do fhostaithe eile Aer Lingus," a dúirt Donal Moriarty, Oifigeach Gnóthaí Corparáideacha Aer Lingus.

Union members voted overwhelmingly to reject the Labor Court's recommendation to accept wage increases of 9.25% as part of an interim settlement.

Vótáil baill an cheardchumainn le móramh mór, diúltú de mholadh na Cúirte Oibreachais glacadh le harduithe pá de 9.25 faoin gcéad mar chuid de shocrú eatramhach.

The pilots are demanding increases of 23.8% in compensation for their cooperation with the company during the Covid-19 pandemic when the aviation sector was in a slump.

Tá na píolótaí ag éileamh arduithe de 23.8 faoin gcéad mar chúiteamh ar a gcomhoibriú leis an chomhlacht i rith na paindéime covid 19 nuair a bhí an earnáil eitlíochta ina lagtrá.

Aer Lingus says this claim is excessive, unreasonable and unjustifiable.

Deir Aer Lingus go bhfuil an t-éileamh seo iomarcach, míréasúnta agus dochosanta.

Operations postponed at University Hospital, Galway.

Obráidí curtha ar atráth in Ospidéal na hOllscoile, Gaillimh.

University Hospital Galloway says a number of elective procedures have been postponed due to hospital pressure and a lack of beds.

Deir Ospidéal na hOllscoile, Gallimhe go bhfuil roinnt gnáthamh roghnacha curtha ar atráth de bharr brú san ospidéal agus easpa leapacha.

Urgent and 'time-sensitive' cases are being prioritized by the hospital and the patient is being informed directly when a procedure is to be postponed.

Cásanna práinne agus cásanna atá 'am-íogair' atá ag fáil tús áite ag an ospidéal agus an t- othar á chur ar an eolas go díreach nuair atá gnáthamh le cur ar atráth.

The Emergency Department at the center is also under pressure with people waiting a long time to see a doctor.

Tá an Rannóg Éigeandála san ionad faoi bhrú freisin agus daoine ag fanacht i bhfad le dochtúir a fheiceáil.

A large crowd, almost 400 people, attended the section between Saturday and Sunday.

Slua mór, beagnach 400 duine, a d'fhreastail ar an rannóg idir an Satharn agus an Domhnach.

Because of so many of those who wanted treatment in the hospital itself, there is pressure on the hospital's capacity to provide beds.

De bharr an oiread acu sin ar theastaigh cóir leighis san ospidéal féin uathu, tá brú ar acmhainn an ospidéil leapacha a chur ar fáil.

There is therefore a significant delay, the Hospital says, in bringing people from the Emergency Department to a bed in a ward.

Tá moill shuntasach mar sin, a deir an tOspidéal ar dhaoine a thabhairt ón Rannóg Éigeandála chuig leapa i mbarda.

49 people were waiting on a ward bed this morning, according to the hospital.

49 duine a bhí ag fanacht ar leaba bharda ar maidin, dar leis an ospidéal.

University Hospital Galway says that everyone who comes to the Emergency Department will be attended to, but that this will be done strictly in order of medical need.

Deir Ospidéal na hOllscoile Gaillimh go ndéanfar freastal ar gach duine a thiocfaidh chuig an Rannóg Éidgeandála, ach go ndéanfar sin go docht in ord an riachtanais leighis.

The public is asked not to attend the Emergency Department at the hospital unless it is an emergency.

Iarrtar ar an bpobal gan freastal ar an Rannóg Éigeandála san ospidéal murar éigeandáil atá ann.

First try a GP or an out-of-hours service if possible, that's the advice to the public.

Triail ar dtús ar dhochtúir teaghlaigh nó ar sheirbhís eis- uaireanta más féidir, sin é an chomhairle don phobal.

The HSE also says that the Roscommon Injury Unit is also open from 8am to 8pm to attend to injuries to anyone over 5 years of age.

Deir an HSE freisin go bhfuil Aonad Gortuithe Ros Comáin ar oscailt freisin óna 8am go dtína 8in le freastal ar ghortú ar dhuine ar bith os cionn 5 bhliana d'aois.

Talks are underway to avoid a strike at Aer Lingus.

Comhráite ar siúl le súil stailc in Aer Lingus a sheachaint.

Discussions are underway today between Aer Lingus and the Irish Airline Pilots Association regarding a pay dispute that could lead to a strike.

Tá comhráite ar siúl inniu idir Aer Lingus agus Chumann Phíolótaí Aerlínte na hÉireann maidir le haighneas pá a bhféadfadh stailc a bheith mar thoradh air.

Yesterday, members of that union in Aer Lingus voted overwhelmingly in favor of taking industrial action - including a strike - if a compromise was not reached between us.

Inné, vótáil baill den cheardchumann sin in Aer Lingus le móramh mór i bhfabhar tabhairt faoi ghníomhaíocht thionsclaíoch – stailc san áireamh – mura dtiocfaí ar chomhréiteach idir dhá linn.

Ahead of today's joint talks, Aer Lingus asked the pilots to give fifteen days' notice before going on strike.

Roimh na comhchainteanna inniu, d'iarr Aer Lingus fógra cúig lá dhéag ar na píolótaí sula rachaidís ar stailc.

According to the Workplace Relations Commission's code of practice, it is recommended to give at least one week's notice before going on strike.

De réir chód cleachtais an Choimisiúin um Chaidreamh san Áit Oibre, moltar fógra seachtaine ar a laghad a thabhairt sula dtéitear ar stailc.

The president of the pilots' union, Captain Mark Tighe, said that the members would announce "in due course" what kind of industrial action they would undertake.

Dúirt uachtarán cheardchumann na bpíolótaí, an Captaen Mark Tighe, go bhfógródh na baill "in am trátha" cén sórt gníomhaíochta tionsclaíche go baileach a dtabharfaidís faoi.

He indicated however that the pilots wished not to disturb people who intend to go on holiday abroad this summer.

Thug sé le fios mar sin féin gur mhian leis na píolótaí gan cur as do dhaoine a bhfuil sé i gceist acu dul ar saoire thar lear an samhradh seo.

On the contrary, says Mark Tighe, the pilots are determined to get their own share of the big profit that Aer Lingus is currently making.

Os a choinne sin, arsa Mark Tighe, tá na píolótaí meáite ar a gcothrom féin a fháil den bhrabach mór atá Aer Lingus a dhéanamh faoi láthair.

Last week, the union rejected a Labor Court recommendation to give them a total 9.2% pay rise as part of an interim settlement.

An tseachtain seo caite, dhiúltaigh an ceardchumann moladh ón gCúirt Oibreachais ardú pá 9.2 faoin gcéad san iomlán a thabhairt dóibh mar chuid de réiteach eatramhach.

That proposal is far from the mark, however, since the 23.8% pay rise that the pilots are demanding.

Tá an moladh sin i bhfad ón marc, ámh, ós ardú pá 23.8 faoin gcéad atá na píolótaí a éileamh.

According to the pilots, the pay rise offers they have been given so far are not in line with the rate of inflation or the huge profit Aer Lingus is making, and do not take into account all the benefits that have allowed they want on behalf of the company during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Dar leis na píolótaí nach bhfuil na tairiscintí ar ardú pá a tugadh dóibh go dtí seo, nach bhfuil siad ag teacht le ráta an bhoilscithe ná leis an mbrabach mór atá Aer Lingus a dhéanamh, agus nach gcuirtear san áireamh iontu na sochair ar fad a lig siad uathu ar son an chomhlachta aimsir na paindéime covid 19.

Aer Lingus Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, Donal Moriarty, however, said the pilots' demands were out of proportion and untenable.

Dúirt Príomhoifigeach Gnóthaí Corparáideacha Aer Lingus, Donal Moriarty, áfach, go raibh éileamh na bpíolótaí as compás agus dochurtha i gcrích.

Dúirt an tAire Gnóthaí Forbartha Tuaithe agus Pobail, Heather Humphreys gur chuir scéal an ionsaithe "alltacht agus samhnas" uirthi.

"The issue of restricted dog breeds is being examined by a working group led by former Garda Commissioner John Twomey," said the Minister.
