No. It might have been unfair of me to ask Ms Murrell specifically about this. One of the recommendations in the joint statement we received from the various councils was that clarity be sought from the Office of the Attorney General on the legal enforceability of conditions relating to the ability of occupants to speak the Irish language. That probably relates to the Belgian decision. My view is that extra flexibility can be given to Irish speakers from a cultural point of view when they are seeking planning permission sna ceantair Ghaeltachta.
