Mairéad Farrell (SF), Galway West

I studied in what is now the University of Galway. When I was studying, there were options for taking courses through the medium of Irish. One I availed of was French.
This allowed me to study French through Irish. The Minister stated that there were 106 courses. Is he looking to expand that number? Given the objective of trying to deliver public services to people who want to speak through the medium of Irish, are there specific types of course that need to be expanded?
