“Meaning of maintaining island responsibilities under the Department of the Gaeltacht”.
“Ciall le cúraimí oileán a choinneáil faoi Roinn na Gaeltachta”.
According to the manager of the Tory Island Co-op Marjorie Uí Chearbhaill, the transfer of island care from the Department of the Gaeltacht makes sense.
Níl ciall dá laghad cúram na n-oileán a aistriú ó Roinn na Gaeltachta, dar le bainisteoir Chomharchumann Oileán Thoraí Marjorie Uí Chearbhaill.
She said she does not understand why the islands’ responsibilities are being transferred to the Department of Social Protection, Community, Rural and Island Development.
Dúirt sí nach dtuigeann sí cad chuige a bhfuil cúraimí na n-oileán á n-aistriú go dtí an Roinn Coimirce Sóisialaí, Pobail, ForbarthaTuaithe agus Oileán.
According to Marjorie Uí Chearbhaill, it is sensible that most of the islands in the Gaeltacht would have the islands’ responsibilities under the Gaeltacht Department.
Dar le Marjorie Uí Chearbhaill go luíonn sé le ciall go mbeadh cúraimí na n-oileán faoi Roinn na Gaeltachta de bharr an mhórchuid doileáin na tíre a bheith sa Ghaeltacht.
The Department of the Gaeltacht, in conjunction with Údarás na Gaeltachta, is working on language and development plans on the islands and the Department has long been familiar with island affairs, she said.
Tá obair ar bun ag Roinn na Gaeltachta, i gcomhar le hÚdarás na Gaeltachta, maidir le pleananna teanga agus forbartha ar na hoileáin agus seantaithí ag an Roinn ar ghnóthaí na n-oileán, a dúirt sí.
