Government to introduce bill which will change Gaeltacht identification

The Government are planning to introduce a bill which will change the way in which Gaeltacht areas are identified.
Under this new legislation, Gaeltacht areas will be identified in future by how much the Irish language is used instead of by geographical location.
At least two-thirds of a district’s population must now be shown by census data to be daily speakers of Irish.
