Labhrás Ó Murchú (Fianna Fail)

An rud a bhí i gceist agam a rá ná go bhfuil súil agam nach bhfuil deireadh le scéal Foinse. Tá áthas orm gur tharla an cruinniú inné. B'fhéidir nach raibh aon dul chun cinn déanta, ach ní hionann é sin agus a rá go bhfuil an doras dúnta.

Cross-Border bodies are very significant and we are all aware of the symbolism attaching to them. We know how lucky we are that we have peace on this island. That cross-Border co-operation in a formal manner is good. Foras na Gaeilge was one that was selected and it plays an important role in creating goodwill with all the traditions on this island. It has always been accessible to all people. It is important to remember that in the current debate on Foinse. I hope it can get the funding and support it requests. It is a very professional publication and we would all be dissatisfied if it could not continue.
