Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children (Ms Harney)

My Department has not yet been asked to prepare a draft scheme under section 11 of the Official Languages Act by the Minister of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs. It is expected that the total cost of publication of the notice under section 13 of the Act will be less than €10,000.
