Text
Minister, it is well known that your party has blocked a change to the funding formula that would see more funding go to Foras na Gaeilge. That has caused a great deal of frustration among Irish language groups. Was that issue discussed, and will you confirm whether you are still blocking any reform to the funding formula?
