Scope and content

Four copies of a press release issued in response to recent statements in the press that suggested the Language Freedom Movement played a part in the parents' plebiscite in Ahascragh, Co. Galway. In this press release, the LFM denies involvement, but supports the will of the parents who want to play a part in their children's education. Concludes that compulsory Irish is now a Fianna Fáil policy, with both Fine Gael and Labour having declared they will make Irish an optional examination subject.
