Oifig an Choimisinéara Teanga (6 Mar 2012)

Peadar Tóibín: Ní aontaíonn saineolaí teanga ar bith leis an Aire Stáit faoin ábhar seo. Dé réir na saineolaithe go léir, céim siar atá i gceist anseo don teanga. Tá pobal na Gaeilge agus eagraíochtaí na Gaeilge ar fud na tíre in éadan an chinnidh seo. Cé mhéid airgid a shábhálófar de bharr an chinnidh seo agus cén dochar a dhéanfaidh an cinneadh ar an Ghaeilge?

Ceapann a lán daoine nach bhfuil an Roinn dáiríre faoi chur chun cinn na Gaeilge. Ba mhaith liom cupla ceist a chur ar an Aire Stáit maidir le bainistíocht na Ranna, mar saghas bainisteoir ar an Roinn is ea an t-Aire Stáit. Cad iad na táscairí...

Caomhnú agus Forbairt na Gaeilge (6 Mar 2012)

Peadar Tóibín: Mar a deirtear i mBéarla, "you cannot manage if you cannot measure."
