Catherine Connolly (Galway West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

Events have overtaken us. My question relates to the publication of the policy document for the islands. Well done and congratulations to the Minister because that document has finally been published. However, it was not initially available in Irish, although it is at this stage. For some 64% of the population of the islands, Irish is their first language but the document was not initially available in Irish. I note that for the record. I have since got an Irish translation.

For the action plan, I will zone in on the implementation body. When is it going to be set up? Who will be on it?
