The advice submitted to me by An Chomhairle Um Oideachas Gaeltachta agus Gaelscolaíchta is available on its website. The appropriate link is www.cogg.ie. As I mentioned in my previous reply on this matter, there are a number of issues that remain to be clarified, including the specific rationale and function of the centre as well as building and related technical requirements. This necessarily involves other bodies such as An Chomhairle Um Oideachas Gaeltachta agus Gaelscolaíochta and the Department for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs. I hope to make progress on these issues as quickly as possible.
