WHOA. Sorry, folks. My time's not always my own lately. I'm pretty sure I've missed a fair amount of news but let's just pick up what we can....
Ó Cuív urges move on NI language act (Oct 18, 2007)
from http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/breaking/2007/1018/breaking18.htm
"A compromise must be found on the Irish language in Northern Ireland, Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs Éamon Ó Cuív has said.
"Northern Ireland Culture Minister Edwin Poots decided this week against introducing an Irish Language Act - even though it is enshrined in last year's St Andrew's Agreement.
"Sixty-five per cent of people who participated in a public consultation process supported the legislation, but Mr Poots claimed it would prove too divisive and expensive to introduce."
