NEWS BULLETIN
Increasing Gaelic Speaking Children
By Closing Down Taic/CNSA

With stiffened backs those who work in the Gaelic world are awaiting the next census which is strongly expected to state that yet again Gaelic speaker numbers have declined. Happily, the one growth area is in the number of children learning Gaelic.
In this difficult, though not entirely hopeless situation, Bord na Gaidhlig with their usual flair and enlightened thinking, have decided to deny after March 2011 Taic/CNSA, any Government directed funding, with the clear intention of forcing them to cease operating from that time.
Truly strange behaviour, seeing how it has been, the Taic/CNSA organisation who over the past 30 years and for the most part, the only agency focussing on children learning to speak Gaelic.
Funny old world isn’t it?

This was not unexpected.

It was only a few months ago that BnaG stated that they weren't clear on what TAIC really was. As I said at the time, that was a fair assessment -- Finlay has muddied the waters terribly in trying to associate his opinions on other matters with the success of CNSA.

The Bòrd effectively said that it was difficult to justify giving public money to an organisation if they didn't know what they were putting the money into.

Taic should not have been running so many different schemes under a single banner -- with separation of concerns comes separation of risk. CNSA should have remained a separate company applying directly for its own funds, and it would probably still be getting funding now, even if the Bòrd refused to fund any of TAIC's other activities.

Agus beachd bhon riaghaltas ri fhaiginn air BBC Alba a-nis:

'Thuirt neach-labhairt bho Riaghaltas na h-Alba:

"Tha plana gnìomha Bhòrd na Gàidhlig air a dhealbhachadh, ri linn iarrtais Mhinistearan, airson ginealach ùr de luchd-bruidhinn na Gàidhlig a chruthachadh.

"Tha e a' cur romhpa àireamhan luchd-bruidhinn na Gàidhlig àrdachadh, gus àm ri teachd seasmhach a thoirt don chànan.

"Mar a tha am plana a' cur an cèill, tha sinn ag aontachadh gu bheil bliadhnaichean tràtha fìor chudromach ann a bhith a' cruthachadh a' ghinealaich ùir seo, agus tha sinn taiceil do na tha am Bòrd a' dèanamh gus dèanamh cinnteach gun tèid ionmhas a chosg gu h-èifeachdach san raon seo," thuirt e'

Gheibhear tuilleadh san Albannach an-diugh le Seonaidh Caimbeul.

Tha Fionnlagh a' cumail a-mach gun robh a h-uile càil a tha seo air a tighinn o chionn fhada:

'Tha Fionnlagh MacLeòid, stiùiriche TAIC, a' fàgail air a' Bhòrd gu bheil iad a' feuchainn smachd fhaighinn airsan gun a bhith bruidhinn a-mach gu fosgailte mu shuidheachadh na Gàidhlig sa choimhearsnachd agus san dachaigh. Thuirt e: "Chunnaic sinn gun robh iad air son cur ás dhuinn bho chionn còig bliadhna. Mhìnich sinn dhaibh nach eil cainnt na dachaigh agus cànan foirmeil na sgoile idir co-ionnan. Tha fianais bho air feadh an t-saoghail a' sealltainn ged a tha foghlam tro mheadhan cànain dualchasach glè mhath ann an toirt clann gu fileantas cha bhi iad deiseil fhathast a' chlann aca fhèin a thogail leatha...'

Agus BBC Alba
Tha ceannard na buidhne TAIC a' gealltainn tuilleadh strì a dhèanamh 's e a' cur as leth Bhòrd na Gàidhlig nach eil iad a' dol a thoirt an còrr airgid dhaibh.
Tha Fionnlagh MacLeòid a' cumail a-mach gur e na beachdan làidir a tha e air nochdadh gu poblach mu shuidheachadh na Gàidhlig a tha a' fàgail nach eil am Bòrd a' dol a chumail taic ris a' bhuidhinn aige.

"Tha e air a bhith aithnichte fad trì no ceithir de bhliadhnaichean gu bheil Bòrd na Gàidhlig ag iarraidh a h-uile buidheann a bhith air an aon ràmh," thuirt Mgr MacLeòid.
"Tha feadhainn againn a' smaoineachadh nach eil càil a' dol a thighinn às a' ghnothach sin aig a' cheann mu dheireadh.
[...]
"Ma tha thu a' tighinn a-mach an aghaidh Bhòrd na Gàidhlig agus nam planaichean a th' aca, gu h-iongantach cha bhi thu idir ann.

"Gu nàdarra, tha againn ri sabaid, agus bidh an sabaid cruaidh.
