D'fhiafraigh

den Aire Airgeadais an inseoidh sé ainmneacha na dtréimhseachán agus na bpáipéirí nuachta a bhfuil beartaithe deontais d'íoc leo faoi fho-mhírcheann (G) Vóta 21 sa bhliain 1949-50 agus méid measta an deontais i ngach cás.

A provision of £7,100 has been made under sub-head G of the Vote for Stationery and Printing for 1949-50 in respect of grants to periodicals published in Irish and newspapers publishing current news in Irish. It is proposed to make grants from this sub-head to the periodicals Indiu, Cómhar, Feasta, Tír-na-nOg, Ar Aghaidh and An t-Ultach, but the amount to be allocated to each periodical in 1949-50 has not yet been finally determined. Payments will also be made from this sub-head to newspapers published in the Gaeltacht or adjoining areas and circulating in the Gaeltacht, in which news and matters of topical interest are published in Irish. Payment to these newspapers depends on the amount of news matter published in Irish, and the amount payable to any newspaper in 1949-50 cannot as yet be estimated with any accuracy. In 1948-49 the People's Press, the Derry People, the Connacht Tribune and the Connacht Sentinel received grants for publishing news matter in Irish.
