Táim chun Ceisteanna Uimh. 742 agus 743 athógáil le chéile.

Is doiciméad ardleibhéil é an Ráiteas Straitéise ina leagtar béim ar spriocanna straitéiseacha don Roinn Breisoideachais agus Ardoideachais, Taighde, Nuálaíochta agus Eolaíochta. I gcomhréir leis an gcur chuige seo, ní thagraítear go sonrach do mhórchuid de ghníomhaíochtaí agus de thosaíochtaí na Roinne.

Tá an Roinn Turasóireachta, Cultúir, Ealaíon, Gaeltachta, Spóirt & Meán freagrach as cur i bhfeidhm an Phlean Gníomhaíochta 2018-2022 a forbraíodh faoi choimirce An Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge 2010-2030.

Tá an Roinn Breisoideachais agus Ardoideachais, Taighde, Nuálaíochta agus Eolaíochta tiomanta oibriú go dlúth leis an Roinn Turasóireachta, Cultúir, Ealaíon, Gaeltachta, Spóirt & Meán chun tacú leis na tionscnamh éagsúla atá mar chuid den Straitéis.

The Statement of Strategy is a high level document that sets out strategic goals for the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science. In line with this approach, many of the Department's activities and priorities are not specifically addressed.

The Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport & Media is responsible for the implementation of the Action Plan 2018-2022 developed under the auspices of the 20 Year Strategy for the Irish Language 2010-2030.

The Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science is committed to working closely with the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport & Media to support the various initiatives that form part of the Strategy.
