Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, how much funding his Department has provided to An Ciste Infheistiochta Gaeilge since 2000.
The Irish Language Investment Fund, An Ciste Infheistíochta Gaeilge, was established by a grant-in-aid of £8 million from the Government in 2010 in connection to the Hillsborough Castle Talks.
On 25 May, the Government announced the provision of an additional £4 million in capital money to the Fund as part of the commitments on Northern Ireland’s unique circumstances that were agreed in New Decade, New Approach.
