Irish Language Scheme Consultation

Laois County Council, together with other stakeholders, may prepare plans to develop, preserve and promote the Irish language. You can have an input into the plans through consultation.

Please visit our online consultation portal to keep up-to-date on any upcoming local area plan consultations. 

The Official Languages Act 2003 requires public bodies to prepare a scheme detailing the services that they will provide through the medium of:

  • Irish
  • English
  • both Irish and English

The Office of An Coimisinéir Teanga was established under the Official Languages Act as an independent statutory office, operating as an ombudsman’s service and compliance agency.
