Labhrás Ó Murchú (Fianna Fail)

Tá an-díomá orm a chlois go bhfuil Aer Lingus tar éis cosc a chuir ar fógraí as Gaeilge ar an seirbhís as Béal Feirste. Tá sé deacair a thuiscint cad ina thaobh go bhfuil sé seo amhlaidh. Tá súil agam go ndéanfaidh Aer Lingus athmhachnamh ar an gcinneadh seo. Tá dea-thoil ann don Ghaeilge i láthair na huaire. Beidh sé an-deacair do dhaoine, go mórmhór daoine óga, a thuiscint cén fath go bhfuil an cosc seo á chur i bhfeidhm.

Aer Lingus has the unhappy knack of inviting adverse publicity and it has done so again by banning announcements in the Irish language on its Belfast service. I agree with the Taoiseach. What harm would a few sentences of Irish have done to anyone?
