CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - LEABHAIR GHAEDHILGE.

den Aire Oideachais— ós rud é go bhfuil nua-leabhair don sluagh agus do na meadhon-scoileanna ag teastáil go géar, agus ós rud é go bhfuil scríobhnóirí maithe ag obair mar mhúinteoirí agus mar chléirigh fán Roinn Oideachais (agus fá Ranna nách í)—an bhféachfadh sé chun na scríobhnóirí sin do leigint saor ar feadh bliana dá n-iartí cead chuige sin chun leabhair Ghaedhilge a scríobhadh.

The State has already provided financial assistance to encourage the production and publication of popular literature and Secondary School text books. An Advisory Committee has been set up to make recommendations as to the expenditure of the grant allocated for the former purpose. There are serious difficulties which stand in the way of the adoption of the proposal suggested by the Deputy, and I have no evidence before me strong enough to justify action that might lead to the removal of these difficulties.
