Ms Cathy Ní Ghoill:

An increase in resources and staff is the issue. There is also a lack of funding. Údarás na Gaeltachta does not have the funding to pass on to us and we cannot apply extra resources. If there were extra bodies on the ground to fight and to lobby for and implement new projects, it would make a significant difference. Resources and extra funding will be key. Údarás na Gaeltachta is an excellent vehicle. It understands that it is there for Gaeltacht and island areas. However, it needs support from Government level. I should say "additional support", as it does get support.
