“The number of Gardaí with Irish in the Gaeltacht is far too low”.
“Líon Gardaí le Gaeilge sa Ghaeltacht i bhfad ró-íseal”.
The number of Gardaí on duty in the Gaeltacht who speak Irish is far too low and is a breach of the Garda Síochána Act as a result, said An Coimisinéir Teanga Rónán Ó Domhnaill.
Tá líon na nGardaí ar dualgas sa Ghaeltacht a bhfuil Gaeilge acu i bhfad ró- íseal agus tá sárú á dhéanamh ar Acht an Gharda Síochána dá bharr, a dúirt an Coimisinéir Teanga Rónán Ó Domhnaill.
The Commissioner has laid a report on the number of Irish – speaking Gardaí in the Gaeltacht before the Houses of the.
Tá tuarascáil faoin líon Gardaí le Gaeilge sa Ghaeltacht curtha faoi bhráid Thithe an Oireachtais ag an gCoimisinéir.
In a statement, the Commissioner stated that it had been decided to lay a report before the Dáil and the Seanad as the recommendations of an investigation made in 2011 had not been implemented by An Garda Síochána and “An Coimisinéir Teanga could not take any further action to to persuade the Garda Síochána to do so. “
I ráiteas, dúirt an Coimisinéir gur socraíodh ar thuarascáil a leagan faoi bhráid na Dála agus an tSeanaid de bharr nach bhfuil moltaí imscrúdaithe a rinneadh in 2011 curtha i bhfeidhm ag an nGarda Síochána agus “nárbh fhéidir leis an gCoimisinéir Teanga aon chéim bhreise a ghlacadh chun a chur ina luí ar an nGarda Síochána an méid sin a dhéanamh.”
The Commissioner of the Garda Síochána has a statutory duty to ensure, as far as possible, that Gardaí who are fluent in Irish are placed on duty in an area where there are Gaeltacht areas.
Tá dualgas reachtúil ar Choimisinéir an Gharda Síochána a chinntiuÌ , chomh fada agus is féidir, gur Gardaí ataÌ liÌ ofa sa Ghaeilge a chuirtear ar dualgas i nduÌ iche ina bhfuil limisteÌ ar Gaeltachta.
In an investigation completed in December 2011, An Coimisinéir Teanga indicated that the Garda Síochána had complied with its statutory obligations to place the language of Gardaí who are proficient in Irish in the Donegal Gaeltacht.
In imscruÌ duÌ a críochnaíodh i mí na Nollag 2011, thug an Coimisinéir Teanga le fios naÌ r chomhliÌ on an Garda SiÌ ochaÌ na a ndualgais reachtuÌ la teanga Gardaí atá cumasach sa Ghaeilge a chur ar dualgas i nGaeltacht Dhún na nGall.
The investigation recommended that the Garda Síochána investigate staffing throughout the Gaeltacht to ensure compliance with the statutory obligations imposed on the Garda Síochána in the Garda Síochána Act, 2005 and the Garda Síochána Language Scheme, 2009-2012. .
Moladh san imscrúdú sin go bhfiosródh an Garda SiÌ ochaÌ na an soláthar foirne ar fud na Gaeltachta le cinntiú go rabhthas ag comhlíonadh na ndualgas reachtúil atá leagtha ar an nGarda Síochána in Acht an Gharda Síochána, 2005 agus Scéim Teanga an Gharda Síochána, 2009-2012.
A monitoring process found that a total of 35 Gardaí are based in Gaeltacht stations.
Fuarthas amach mar thoradh ar phróiseas faireacháin gur 35 Garda ar fad atá lonnaithe i stáisiúin Ghaeltachta.
This information came from An Garda Síochána.
Is ón nGarda Síochána a tháinig an fhaisnéis sin.
An Coimisinéir Teanga stated that it is very clear that the recommendations of the investigation have not been implemented by An Garda Síochána.
Dúirt an Coimisinéiir Teanga gur ríléir nach bhfuil moltaí an imscrúdaithe curtha i bhfeidhm ag an nGarda Síochána.
It would be difficult to argue that a reasonable amount of time has not elapsed since recommendations were made in an investigation in 2011, he said, and it is now up to the Houses of the Oireachtas to take any further steps, if deemed appropriate.
Ba dheacair a áitiú nach bhfuil achar réasúnta ama caite ó rinneadh moltaí in imscrúdú in 2011, a dúirt sé, agus is faoi Thithe an Oireachtais a thiteann sé anois aon chéimeanna breise a thógáil, má mheastar gur cuí sin a dhéanamh.
The investigation was set up after a native Irish speaker in the Donegal Gaeltacht complained to An Coimisinéir Teanga.
Bunaíodh an t- imscrúdú tar éis do chainteoir dúchais Gaeilge i nGaeltacht Dhún na nGall gearán a dhéanamh leis an gCoimisinéir Teanga.
The complainant went to Bunbeg Garda station on 24 November 2010.
Chuaigh an gearánach go dtí stáisiún na nGardaí ar an mBun Beag ar an 24 Samhain 2010.
It was stated that although the Garda on duty there was polite, the Garda told the complainant that he spoke no Irish.
Dúradh cé go raibh an Garda a bhí ar dualgas ansin múinte, dúirt an Garda leis an ngearánach nach raibh aon Ghaeilge aige.
When the Office of An Coimisinéir Teanga attempted to resolve the matter informally, the Garda Síochána authorities indicated that only one in nine members based at Bunbeg station were able to carry out their duties in Irish.
Nuair a rinne Oifig an Choimisinéara Teanga iarracht an cheist a réiteach go neamhfhoirmiúil, chuir údaráis an Gharda Síochána in iúl nach raibh ach comhalta amháin as naonúr a bhí lonnaithe i stáisiún an Bhuna Bhig in ann a dhualgais a chomhlíonadh i nGaeilge.
