Tá áthas orm a bheith i mo sheasamh os bhur gcomhair amach agus Bille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2019 de- 523 Dáil Éireann imhnithe ag mo chomhghleacaithe sa Rialtas ar 10 Nollaig. Is cuid lárnach dár bhféiniúlacht agus dár n-oidhreacht í an Ghaeilge agus is é ceart an duine an Ghaeilge a úsáid agus gnó á dhéanamh aige nó aici le heagraíochtaí Stáit, atá faoi chaibidil againn inniu agus atá i gcroílár Bhille na dTeangacha Oifigiúla (Leasú) 2019. Sílim gur fiú cúpla focal a rá faoin gcúlra a bhain leis an mBille teanga a chur i dtoll a ché- ile le comhthéacs a thabhairt do phlé an lae inniu. Is í an Ghaeilge an chéad teanga oifigiúil in Éirinn de réir Airteagal 8 de Bhunreacht na hÉireann - luaitear san airteagal céanna gurb é an Béarla teanga oifigiúil eile an Stáit. Achtaíodh Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla 2003 i mí Iúil 2003 agus ba é príomh-aidhm na hAchta sin ná timpeallacht a chruthú ina mbeadh ról níos lárnaí ag an teanga in obair an Stáit, go mbeadh an teanga níos feiceálaí agus go mbeadh fáil i bhfad níos leithne ar sheirbhísí trí Ghaeilge. Ní hamháin sin, ach go mbeadh tuiscint i bhfad níos fearr ag an saoránach ar na seirbhísí atá ar fáil dó nó di, agus ar cén caighdeán seirbhíse ar cheart a bheith ag súil leis. Sular dréachtaíodh an Bille seo le leasú a dhéanamh ar Acht 2003, cuireadh tréimhse com- hairliúcháin ar bun leis na bpáirtithe leasmhara éagsúla. Tá ionchur faighte ag oifigigh mo Ro- inne ó réimse leathan de gheallsealbhóirí go bhfuil éileamh ann i measc an phobail ar sheirbhísí a bheith ar fáil i nGaeilge.
