View answerÚdarás na Gaeltachta's management team meet regularly with officials from my Department and continue to keep them updated on progress in relation the activities of the organisation as a whole.
Housing has been discussed a number of times with a view to contributing to the Government's housing plan, Housing for All, and an outline strategy for housing solutions using Údarás na Gaeltachta-owned lands has been developed.
I understand that an tÚdarás has prepared an approach which is to be presented to its board at its next meeting in December.
