Oideachas trí Ghaeilge
Dail Éireann — 2026-04-23
============================================================

James Lawless (FF), Kildare North

I agree with the suggestion about the greater utilisation of Gaelcholáistí and Gaelscoileanna as part of the educational real estate, which could play host to some courses of this nature. That is a good suggestion and one that I will take away with me and consider. I reiterate my Department's commitment to furthering provision of Irish language in this space and across all aspects of the tertiary estate. Tá an Rialtas tiomanta oibriú ar bhonn thras-Rannach oideachas trí mheán na Gaeilge a neartú ag gach leibhéal ó na leathbhlianta go dtí an tríú leibhéal ag cinntiú gur obair thairbheach agus inbhuanaithe atá ann chun an Ghaeilge a chur chun cinn. I hope I have provided some reassurance to the Deputy that this is being taken seriously by me and within an Roinn freisin.
