Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire. Cuirim fáilte roimh an gcinneadh atá glactha maidir le hainmniú na n-eagras difriúil faoin Acht seo. I welcome the decision by the Minister to adopt the proposals I have put forward in amendments to try to ensure that the titles of public bodies under the legislation would be in Irish only. That is reflected in the Minister’s amendments. I acknowledge what she has said with the exception of An tOmbudsman Póilíneachta and that she will look at that title in future after the body is fully established.

Níl a fhios agam cén fáth nár glacadh leis an leasú atá agam féin, Uimh. 11, a bhaineann le teidil na ndaoine difriúla atá ag obair sa Gharda, sáirsintí agus an Coimisinéir féin ina measc. Of course members of An Garda Síochána can call themselves whatever they want and acknowledge the rank that different officers hold on a one-to-one basis, but in official documents the titles should reflect the spirit of the Official Languages Act. We should start the practice of ensuring that happens. It is a pity that the Minister does not intend to accept the amendment. I say to her "Well done" on the others.
