maolú

derogation
Dúirt Ard-Rúnaí Chonradh na Gaeilge, Julian de Spáinn, gur “Glacadh leis an Máltais mar theanga oifigiúil i 2004 agus d’éirigh leo fáil réidh leis an maolú a bhain leis an teanga sin taobh istigh de thrí bliana. Baineadh é seo amach trí chonarthaí sealadacha a thabhairt do go leor saineolaithe Máltaise chun deis a thabhairt dóibh an Fhraincis a thabhairt leo agus iad ag obair thall, ós rud é go bhfuil an tríú teanga riachtanach le go bhfaighfeá post buan mar shaineolaí teanga, agus d’fhéadfaí amhlaidh a chur i gcrích don Ghaeilge”. -
General Secretary of Conradh na Gaeilge, Julian de Spáinn, said that the derogation on Maltese was lifted after three years as a result of provisional contracts given to Maltese experts which allowed employees to gain French as a third official language, a requirement in the EU and a practice which could be applied to the Irish language.
