D'fhiafruigh

den Uachtarán an bhfuair an Ard-Chomhairle rún ó Chonnradh na Gaedhilge ag iarraidh ar an Rialtas Coiste Fiosrúcháin a chur ar bun fá stáid na Gaedhilge i nOllscoileanna an tSaorstáit, agus, má fuair, an neosadh an tUachtarán don Dáil cad is mian leis an Rialtas a dhéunamh sa sceul.

A copy of the resolution referred to was received in my Department, and was referred to the Minister for Education, to whom any question on the subject should be addressed.

I would point out to the Deputy that under the Ministers and Secretaries Acts, 1924 and 1928, the administration and business of the public services of the State are distributed amongst the eleven Departments of State established by those Acts, and that the powers, duties and functions thereof have been assigned to the respective Ministers in charge of those Departments.

It is not the function of the Executive Council to receive or deal with communications in regard to public services assigned to a particular Minister; nor is it my function or the function of my Department to receive or deal with communications relating to services assigned to another Minister. Such communications should be addressed to the Minister concerned or to the Secretary of his Department.
