Vol. 108 No. 15

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Grant for Irish-Speaking Children.

asked the Minister for Education if he will state, in respect of each Gaeltacht area, in each county, the number of children and families in respect of whom the Gaeltacht grant for Irish-speaking children was made, for the last year for which the information is available.

I am supplying for the Deputy's information a tabular statement giving the particulars for the Fíor-Ghaeltacht, Gaeltacht and Breac-Ghaeltacht areas in the respective counties.

Following is the statement:—
