Summary of this debate

Auto-generated

Níl an coiste um Ghaeilge ar an liosta. Is ait go bhfuil sé fágtha ar lár agus an rún seo ár gcomhair. Tuigim go bhfuil obair ar siúl go fóill chun an coiste sin a athbhunú.

Tuigim é sin ach is ait gurb é an coiste sin an t-aon choiste reachtaíochta amháin nach bhfuil ar an liosta sin. Nílim ag cur i gcoinne an rúin toisc nach bhfuil mé i gcoinne na gcoistí a bheith bunaithe; is ait an rud é nach bhfuil an coiste sin san áireamh. Déanfaimid ár ndícheall féachaint chuige go mbeidh rún againn mar gheall air sin an tseachtain seo chugainn ach níl sé á chur ar leataobh ar chor ar bith.

It is a strange motion because it has left out ceann amháin de na coistí nach bhfuil ar an liosta agus a mbíonn ag déileáil le reachtaíocht. Níl an coiste um Ghaeilge ar an liosta. Is ait go bhfuil sé fágtha ar lár agus an rún seo ár gcomhair. Níl aon leithscéal ná míniú air sin tugtha. An míneoidh an Príomh-Aoire é sin dúinn agus don phobal i gcoitinne?

CC Seán Ó Fearghaíl

Tuigim go bhfuil obair ar siúl go fóill chun an coiste sin a athbhunú. B'fhéidir go mbeidh níos mó eolas ag an bPríomh-Aoire.

Tuigim é sin ach is ait gurb é an coiste sin an t-aon choiste reachtaíochta amháin nach bhfuil ar an liosta sin. Is céim síos don Ghaeilge é nach bhfuil sé ann. Bhí dhá mhí ag an gcóras teacht suas le téarmaí tagartha don choiste. Nílim ag cur i gcoinne an rúin toisc nach bhfuil mé i gcoinne na gcoistí a bheith bunaithe; is ait an rud é nach bhfuil an coiste sin san áireamh. Is ceist é a d'ardaigh iriseoirí agus iad atá ag plé leis an nGaeilge liom. An bhfuil sé á chur ar leataobh? Táim ag iarraidh commitment ón Rialtas nach mbeidh moill ar eagrú na dtéarmaí tagartha sin.

CC Seán Ó Fearghaíl · Gaeilge

Déanfaimid ár ndícheall féachaint chuige go mbeidh rún againn mar gheall air sin an tseachtain seo chugainn ach níl sé á chur ar leataobh ar chor ar bith. Tá tábhacht faoi leith ag baint leis an gcoiste úd.
