Scope and content
Press release issued by the Language Freedom Movement quoting remarks made by Christopher T. Morris, LFM President, at the formal establishment of an LFM branch in Galway. Comments made relate to the annual cost of the Gaelic language programme in the primary school system. Criticises the replacement policy 'both in principle and in its highly objectionable practice of compulsion and discrimination'. Highlights that the people of Ireland have not been given a chance to have their say in the Replacement Policy. Recommends a study conducted by Fr. John McNamara entitled 'Bilingualism and Primary Education'.
