The Irish language community had a very high expectation of the appointment of a senior minister with central responsibility for the Irish language and the Gaeltacht in the new government.
Bhí ionchas an-ard ag pobal na Gaeilge go gceapfaí aire sinsearach le lár-fhreagracht as an nGaeilge agus an Ghaeltacht san rialtas nua.
Although they did not have the day this round, it is hoped that in the future more attention will be paid to major shortcomings in the approach of government that has been evident in recent years.
Cé nach raibh an lá leo an babhta seo táthar ag súil go dtabharfar aird níos mó feasta ar easnaimh mhóra san cur chuige rialtais atá le sonrú le blianta anuas.
Report asked Catherine Martin who has been appointed senior minister of the Department of Media, Tourism, Arts, Culture, Sport and the Gaeltacht.
Chuir Tuarascáil ceisteanna ar Catherine Martin atá ceaptha ina haire sinsearach ar Roinn na Meán, Turasóireachta, Ealaíne, Cultúir, Spóirt agus na Gaeltachta.
There is currently a controversy over planning permission in Rathcairn.
Tá conspóid ann faoi láthair faoi cead pleanála i Ráth Chairn.
There are fears that the building plan will end the Gaeltacht in Co. Meath.
Tá faitíos ann go gcuirfidh an plean tógála deireadh leis an nGaeltacht i gCo na Mí.
What would be your cure for this problem?
Cén leigheas a bheadh agat ar an bhfadhb seo?
“Of course, planning is a matter for the Housing Department in the first instance.
“Ar ndóigh, is ceist don Roinn Tithíochta í cúrsaí pleanála ar an gcéad dul síos.
However, under the Planning and Development Act, the Department and Údarás na Gaeltachta are given the opportunity to comment to the planning authorities on planning cases which may affect the Irish language in the Gaeltacht.
É sin ráite, faoin Acht um Pleanáil agus Forbairt tugtar an deis don Roinn agus d’Údarás na Gaeltachta tuairimí a thabhairt do na húdaráis phleanála faoi chásanna pleanála a d’fhéadfadh tionchar a imirt ar an nGaeilge sa Ghaeltacht.
My Department provided a number of comments on this case in Rathcairn.
Chuir mo Roinn roinnt tuairimí ar fáil maidir leis an gcás sin i Ráth Chairn.
I understand that the development in Rathcairn has recently been approved by An Bord Pleanála and that the Co - operative in the area is considering the possibilities of seeking Judicial Review of that decision.
Tuigtear dom go bhfuil an Bord Pleanála tar éis cead a thabhairt don fhorbairt i Ráth Chairn le déanaí agus go bhfuil an Comharchumann sa cheantar ag breathnú ar na féidearthachtaí Athbhreithniú Breithiúnach a lorg i leith an chinneadh sin.
Officials in my Department will be keeping a close eye on this situation as it could have implications for other Gaeltacht areas. ”
Beidh oifigigh mo Roinne ag coinneáil súil ghéar ar an gcás seo mar go bhféadfadh impleachtaí a bheith ann do cheantair Gaeltachta eile dá bharr.”
Do you intend to significantly increase funding for Údarás na Gaeltachta, Foras na Gaeilge and Roinn na Gaeilge?
An bhfuil sé i gceist agat an maoiniú a ardú go suntasach do Údarás na Gaeltachta,
