Two resolutions from the Irish branch of the Celtic League covering support for Irish language education and also condemning Israel for its attack on the Gaza aid flotilla were adopted at the Celtic League AGM held on the Isle of Man this weekend.
The texts of both resolutions are set out below:
“Eilíonn an Chruinniu Chinn Bhliana seo ar an Roinn Oideachas Eireannach aitheantas a thabhairt do Gaelscoil Ráthó agus deireadh a chur leis an bpolasai atá ag cur bac ar forbairt na Gaelscolaíochta ar fud na tire.
This AGM calls on the Irish Department of Education to grant recognition to Gaelscoil Ráthó and put an end to the policies which are preventing the development of Irish Language education throughout the country.”
“Cáineann an Chruinniu Chinn Bhliana seo an t-ionsaí marfach a rinne Iosrael ar an loingeas cabhrach idirnáisiúnta `An Cabhlachán Saoirse’ agus an imshuí ar Gaza. Éilíonn muid ar na Náisiún Aontaithe fiosrúcháin neamhspléach idirnáisiúnta a chur ar bun agus feidhmiú le iachall a cur ar Isreal an imshuí `dárdú.
This AGM condemns the murderous attack by Israel on the international aid fleet `The Freedom Flotilla’ and the blockade if Gaza. We call on the United Nations to hold an independent international inquiry and to take measures to make Israel lift the blockade.”
