The current government has shown little interest or enthusiasm in promoting the Irish Language. People Before Profit will:

• Support measures to revive the economic base of Gaeltacht areas.

• Insist that all public officials dealing with the Gaeltacht have full proficiency in the language.

• Increase the use of the Irish language on the national broadcaster. Expand and develop TG4.

• Provide free Irish language classes in areas where there is local demand.
