Sure. Tourism, culture, arts, language, sport and media are an integral part of the fabric of our society and democracy, serving to enhance our physical, mental and social well-being. As we overcome the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, I am looking forward to turning our attention to the restoration of these activities that sustain us and bring joy to our lives. I will ensure that the sectors can, in time, again become vital components of our economy, our social lives and our well-being. This will require a strategic approach and long-term vision. The Minister of State will now speak to sport and Gaeltacht matters.
