Seán Kyne: Níl na figiúirí sin agam. Tá a fhios agam, mar is atá ag gach uile dhuine, ó thaobh bhuiséad caipitil an údaráis, go raibh laghdú airgid ann ach anois tá ardú ann i mbliana don údarás. Bhí laghdú ann do chuile Roinn.

Seán Kyne: Ó thaobh an airgid sa bhuiséad, tá sé leagtha síos go bhfuil ardú ann ó thaobh an buiséid reatha d'Údarás na Gaeltachta. Tá airgead breise ann a chuirfear ar fáil lastigh de mo Roinn don obair a dhéanann an t-údarás. Tá airgead ag teacht ó Fhoras na Gaeilge freisin don Ghaeilge a chur chun cinn timpeall na...

Seán Kyne: Ní haontaím leis an gCathaoirleach nach bhfuil an bhéim i gceart ag an Roinn. Is Roinn nua é an Roinn seo ó thaobh an ról forbartha i dtaobh gnóthaí réigiúnacha agus tuaithe. Tá an Roinn níos láidre anois. Tá an Cathaoirleach ceart go dteastaíonn níos mó airgid. Nílimid ag rá nach...

Seán Kyne: Bhéinn an-sásta breis airgid a fháil ó Leader. Coimeádfaidh mé súil ar sin agus déanfaidh mé iarracht an t-airgead sin a fháil más rud é go bhfuil sé soiléir nach bhfuil sé caite. Luaigh an Teachta na fadhbanna leis an Roinn Leanaí agus Gnóthaí Óige. De réir an eolais atá agam, tá...

In the first instance, such activities are the...
