Citizens have a right to liaise with Departments and statutory bodies through our native language if they so wish. I am simply requesting that we get an update on the position, not just in respect of Irish language posts specifically but also appointments where the successful applicant would be deemed to have a knowledge of the Irish language so we can get a sense of where we stand in terms of meeting one of our obligations.
