315 Mr. Yates asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the progress made by the steering group on the promotion of Irish in the local government service. [24997/00]
When I appointed the members of An Grúpa Stiúrtha faoin nGaeilge earlier this year, I asked that they would undertake a complete review of the promotion of Irish in local authorities and of the grúpa's own role in that work and that they would report to me within six months. The grúpa has recently submitted its report and it is currently being examined by my Department.
