Amharc ar fhreagraThe Deputy will appreciate that the specific grant incentives operated by my Department within the Gaeltacht are focused on Irish speakers resident within such areas as defined in the Gaeltacht areas orders 1956-1982. There are no plans at present to extend such grant incentives to Irish language users who live outside the Gaeltacht.
