Dinny McGinley (Donegal South West, Fine Gael)

The Taoiseach is aware that some of the agencies designated for decentralisation have a cross-Border dimension. Tá mé ag cuimhniú go spesialta ar Fhoras na Gaeilge, atá ag dul go dtí mo cheantair féin, Gaoth Dobhair. Will the Taoiseach indicate whether these matters were discussed with the Northern Ireland or UK authorities? It is obvious that the authorities are interested in these matters. Were they discussed last Friday when the DUP was here? Have they been discussed with the Minister, Deputy Ó Cuív? Has progress been made due to the fact that Foras na Gaeilge and other agencies have a North-South, cross-Border dimension?
