In view of the fact that this is merely an experimental paper, will the Minister of State cease experimenting with the Irish language as well, in as much as the phrase which has been used for christening this paper and — I am no Dineen — and I will defer to the Minister if he assures me that I am wrong — appears to be a barbarism?

Questions nominated for priority, No. 18——

I would like even a perfunctory reply from the Minister, either yes or no. Will he look at the title and not give us yet another instance of State Irish?

I appreciate the Deputy's interest in Irish and, as one from a Gaeltacht area myself, we took great time to decide on the title and we are quite happy with that.

But is it correct? No one ever seems to care about that.

We are going on to priority questions.
