Written question asked by Lord Laird (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord Rooker (Labour) on Tuesday, 18 April 2006.


Irish Language Body

Question
Whether, since 2001, the Irish Language Body has spent funding on visits or other activities outside the island of Ireland; and, if so, for what purpose.
Answer

I would refer the noble Lord to the Answer I gave on 22 March 2006 (Official Report col. WA59). Foras na Gaeilge has told me that it has incurred expenditure outside the island of Ireland since 2001 and that it did so in furtherance of its statutory remit.
