Irish Language. (5 Dec 2007)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Mar is eol don Teachta, tá stádas mar theanga oifigiúil agus oibre de chuid an Aontais Eorpaigh ag an nGaeilge ó thús na bliana seo. Tá mo Roinn ag obair i gcomhpháirtíocht leis an Roinn Gnóthaí Eachtracha, le Foras na Gaeilge agus le páirtithe iomchuí eile le cinntiú go mbeidh dóthain daoine oilte ar fáil ag institiúidí an Aontais Eorpaigh chun freastal ar a gcuid...

Irish Language. (5 Dec 2007)

Éamon Ó Cuív: An chéad uair gurb' fhios domsa go raibh suim ag an Eoraip i gceist na grammadaí ná ag deireadh na bliana seo. I bhfad roimhe sin, bhí mé taréis iarraidh ar Fhoras na Gaeilge breathnú ar an gcaighdeán oifigiúil. Aontaím leis an Teachta nár breathníodh ar os na 1950í. Tuigeann an Teachta an cúlra a bhaineann leis an gcaighdeán agus an caoi ina dtógadh isteach an chéad uair...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Ní féidir liom freagra a thabhairt ar sin. Cuirfidh mé ceist ar Fhoras na Gaeilge agus gheobhaidh mé amach cén uair a cheapann an fhoras go dtarlóidh sé. Ba chóir don Teachta bheith cinnte faoi rud amháin — ar an bpointe go bhfoilseofar dréacht grammadach nua, beimid i raic faoi. Is féidir linn a shamhlú céard a tharlóidh.

Éamon Ó Cuív: I propose to take Questions Nos. 54, 57, 59, 71, 92, 94, 98, 99 and 189 together. We have already discussed issues regarding the development of the 20 year strategy on the Irish language in my reply to Question No. 52. It was envisaged at the time of the publication of the Government statement that it would take up to two years for the strategy to be prepared. I am confident this target...

Irish Language. (5 Dec 2007)

Éamon Ó Cuív: The best thing is to let the Cabinet committee deal with the linguistic study. Since 1997, many things have been done to promote the Irish language in the Gaeltacht. Údarás na Gaeltachta now commits a fixed percentage of its capital to language based industries. It was also given much funding for the promotion of the Irish language, especially for youth clubs and so on. We have invested...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Yes.

Irish Language. (5 Dec 2007)

Éamon Ó Cuív: That last issue is clearly laid down in the Official Languages Act 2003, so they have a right to have court cases heard in Irish, be they in the Gaeltacht or elsewhere. Regarding gaelscoileanna, responsibility for education is a matter for the Minister for Education and Science. She made a decision on this matter, and as a member of the Cabinet, I support that decision. On the appointment of...

Éamon Ó Cuív: Deputy Wall has asked a valid question. One of the challenges we have faced in the past five years is the fact that Foras was on care and maintenance. There is a link between the funding we provide and the funding in Northern Ireland. It did not allow them to expand the programmes as I would have liked. We need the coalface programmes, whether RAPID, CLÁR or Irish language, that get to...
