As CARN (irisleabhar an Chonradh Ceilteach), An t-Earrach, 2000: ******************************************************************************** Irish language writers will be dicriminated against severely by the decision of the committee of the Listowel Writers Week to limit Irish language entries to the category sponsored by Bord na Gaeilge. The prize here is only £500 while writers in English can submit entries in categories with prize funds of £12,000. Previous prize winners in the then open section on poetry, Pádraig Ó Fearghail and Pádraig Ó Snodaigh denounced the ruling, stating that the ostensible reason given, difficulty in getting Irish landguage adjudicators was nonsense, as Irish language adjudicators were available for the Oireachtas. They only had to be sought to be found. ************************************************************************************** Is feidir litreacha bhladhmacha agus beartphoist túna lofa a chur chun: Fulminating lettres and parcels of rancid tuna fish may be sent to: Listowel Writers' Week Lios Tuatháil, Co.
