Éamon Ó Cuív: Tá sé d’acmhainn ag RTÉ stáisiún Béarla don óige a bheith aige. Tá muid ag caint ar chéad theanga oifigiúil an Stáit agus an teanga náisiúnta. Ní teanga an mhionlaigh atá ann agus caithfear é sin a choinneáil ar intinn i gcónaí agus sibh ag breathnú ar an reachtaíocht.

An rud atá i gceist agam, agus is dóigh go gcaithfimid mar choiste é seo a mholadh ar an gcoiste, ná go mbeadh Raidió na Gaeltachta fós mar chuid de RTÉ ach go leagfaí síos ón lár cé mhéad airgead a chaithfeadh RTÉ a chur ar fáil, agus is féidir leis an Rialtas...
