Labhrás Ó Murchú (Fianna Fail)

It will be more difficult for the bean an tí in the future. It is particularly appropriate for the Seanad to debate this matter and the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs should come before the House because he has his finger on the pulse in regard to these matters. A recent survey on the Gaeltacht shows it to be more endangered than ever. If the bean an tí cannot be found to help with the summer courses, they will not proceed. It would show great leadership on the part of this House if we could show a united front and arrive at a solution to this problem.
