Bòrd na Gàidhlig has submitted a response to Transport Scotland‘s public consultation on the Islands Connectivity Plan – Strategic Approach and Vessels and Ports Plan. Amongst the points raised, we said:
“Young people are the future of Gaelic. Good transport links allow them to meet up/interact with Gaelic speakers elsewhere and experience cultural activities, sports, debating competitions, etc. This offers more opportunities for young people to use Gaelic outside school and in different settings.”
