Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as ucht a fhreagra —
— I think. The Minister has been in post for 18 months, and, as yet, we have no date for the language strategy for the North. I can tell you that Gaeilgeoirí across the North are getting very frustrated and concerned that it will not come at all. Can he give a firm commitment, or tell me when he will be able to do so, on when that strategy will be brought to the Executive?
