Paula Melvin, president of Conradh na Gaeilge, recognised the additional funding given to the Irish language and the Gaeltacht since 2019 but said “specific actions need to be taken to encourage and provide fairness for the Irish language and the Gaeltacht, especially in the context of the funding made available to other sectors in recent years”.
Julian de Spáinn, general secretary of Conradh na Gaeilge, said the opportunity will also be taken at the lobbying event to “seek the support of politicians for two other extremely important issues for the future of the Irish language and the Gaeltacht”.
