Aire na Gaeltachta (Seán Ó Loingsigh)

Would the Minister give the House the reason for the changes?
The Deputy himself as Minister made the decision and it was written on one of his files.
Does the Minister refuse to give me the information I require?
Tugadh an freagra i nGaeilge agus tuigeann an Teachta Gaeilge.
On a point of order, a Cheann Comhairle, I would like you to give a ruling on this point. When a Deputy asks a question in English, is it not within the ordinary rules of procedure that the question should be answered in English, and, if a Deputy asks a question in Irish, that the reply should be in Irish?
That is not a question; the Deputy is making a speech. Irish and English are the official languages.
This is bringing the Irish language into disrepute.
asked the Minister for the Gaeltacht if he will state the amount of commission paid to Gaeltarra Éireann agents within the State, setting out the amount paid to each agent in (a) 1952, (b) 1953, (c) 1954, (d) 1955, and (e) 1956.
Ós i bhfoirm táible atá an freagra seo tá beartaithe agam, led do chead-sa, a Cheann Chomhairle, é a chur sa timpeall leis an Tuairisc Oifigiúil.
