"Bhí sé socraithe san Fhoinlainn gan coimisinéir teanga a cheapadh ach díríodh ansin ar réitithe institiúdacha comhtháite."

Cad is brí do "réitithe"?

My dictionary, as well as 'An Foclóir Beag', gives réitigh "to answer, resolve, clear the way, untangle,..... etc."
Réitithe is the verbal adjective.
I'm sort of confused as to its context here.

Mise freisin. I was thinking it was the plural of "réití", an occupational word. "Réiteoir" means "arbitrator", so I thought maybe this was an alternative form, the whole term meaning "co-binding institutional arbitrators", that is, people who are in the business of mediating binding arbitration. Ach níl mé cinnte.

Hmm. Yes, but wouldn't that be 'réite' as a 4th dec. masc. n.? With 'réití' as the plural?
Either way, I can't find it.

Some occupational names end in "í".

rúnaí - secretary.

rúnaithe - secretaries.

Your first does give context. It may've been a misprint on the writers end. Maybe he meant 'réiteoirí'? Unless "co-binding institutional runners" is a slang term for something. (?)

B'fhéidir. But that'd be a heck of a misprint. I'm finding out more and more that there are a lot of variations on words in Irish.

I went to this site http://www.englishirishdictionary.com/verbs -under the verb section, and it lists réitithe as the verbal adjective of the verb "to arrange." That is, the meaning of réitithe is "arranged."

Don't know if this helps, but I did a google search on the word and it pops up all over the place.

Bhí a fhios agam é sin. But I couldn't see how that could be correct in this context.

Réitithe - solutions

Bhí sé socraithe san Fhionlainn gan coimisinéir teanga a cheapadh ach díríodh ansin ar réitithe institiúdacha comhtháite.

It was decided in Finland not to appoint a languages commisioner, instead coordinated institutional solutions were focussed on.

Aw. Then it IS a misprint. I still feel that I should've gotten it because of the pronunciation.

It is not a misprint, just an alternative form of the plural of réiteach.
