The injunction to use Irish came from the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Dermot Ahern, who urged his colleagues to use the language at EU meetings as a translation service was now mandatory after years of pressure from the Government.
Maith thú, Dermot. Tá súil agam go leanfar do ghairm (agus do shampla?).
