To put it in simple English, tá seacht gcinn de scoileanna, there are seven Gaeltacht or all-Irish schools under the ETB in Galway and Roscommon. It fails to provide services to them through Irish. Previously, that was implemented here. I do not want to pick on one board but that is probably the one with the greatest number or concentration of schools. It is not happening and all I am saying is that it should happen. I do not care how it happens. It must be alive. Let us hope and pray that people upskill and all of the rest. It has to be there as a kind of fundamental organised thing.
