Is mar seo a leanas atá líon na ndaltai sna contaetha atá i gceist a bhfuil an deontas £10 ioctha ina leith don scoilbhliain 1978-79: 2,324 i gCo. Dhún na nGall; 2,638 i gCo na Gaillimhe, agus 872 i gCo. Chiarrai.
Tá scoileanna de gach uile chineál san áireamh agus tá roinnt bheag iarratas le glanadh go fóill don scoilbhliain sin.
Is ag an Aire Oideachais atá an t-eolas maidir le lion na ndaltai a bhi ag freastal ar na scoileanna.

asked the Minister for the Gaeltacht if she has satisfied herself that the £10 deontas for each child in 1980 is adequate to encourage children to speak Irish, and if she will consider increasing this to £100 per child.

Táim sásta go spreagann an deontais £10 daoine chun an Ghaeilge a labhairt agus nil i gceist an deontas a mhéadú faoi láthair.

An bhfuil eolas ag an Aire cathain a raibh an t-ardú is déanai ar an deontas seo agus an bhfuil an tAire sásta le leibhéal an deontais faoi láthair?

Nuair a smaoiníonn mé ar na cúrsaí práinneacha eile a bhfuil airgead as ciste an Stáit le caitheamh orthu, níl mé sásta gur ceart dúinn iarratais a dhéanamh ag an am seo an deontas a ardú fiú amháin go £20. I 1964-65 a deineadh an t-ardú ó £5 go £10.

Is le fiordhéanai a fuarthas sonraí áirithe a bhí á lorg ag mo Roinnse agus tá an cás á bhreithniú faoi láthair.

Níl a fhios agam mar, mar adúirt mé, fuaireamar meastacháin chostais i mi Dheireadh Fómhair 1979 ach ni raibh sonraí áirithe faighte ó ailtire nó ó aon duine eile. Chuireamar fios ar na sonraí éagsúla a bhí ag teastáil uainn agus ní bhfuaireamar iad sin gur chas mise leis an gcoiste pobail san Each Léim ar an 30ú lá den mhi seo caite. Táimid ag breithniú an cháis faoi láthair agus ar a bpointe agus a bhéas an t-eolas ar fad feicthe agus pléite, déanfaimid cinneadh.
