Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 9 November 2006
59 Mr. Quinn asked the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs further to Parliamentary Question No. 3 of 5 October 2006 and the ensuing supplementary questions and replies, the further investigation he has carried out in regard to the matters raised; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37016/06]
View answerI understand that the Deputy's Question relates in fact to Parliamentary Question No. 2 of 5 October 2006.
I must emphasise that, as Minister, I have no function in regard to the day-to-day administration of Údarás na Gaeltachta, including matters relating to internal appointments. However, in light of questions put to me by Deputy Brian O'Shea in this House on 5 October 2006, I asked officials of my Department to seek clarification from Údarás na Gaeltachta in regard to the issues involved.
A copy of the formal response from Údarás na Gaeltachta has been forwarded to Deputy O'Shea.
