To ask the Minister of Justice to detail any guidelines that will be introduced to recognise the community of Irish speakers by facilitating their inclusion in our legal services and spaces.
Thank you for that, Minister. You will forgive me for saying that, "We will learn lessons" is probably one of the most abused phrases in the lexicon of the Civil Service. I do not anticipate that you will do this, but, given that your Department invested considerable amounts of money in that project, as did DFE and,…
