The Gaeltacht Act 2012 (Шаблон:Lang-ga) is an Act of the Oireachtas of Ireland. The Act redefined the traditional Irish-speaking areas or Шаблон:Lang in the Republic of Ireland on linguistic criteria instead of on geographic areas which had been the position until 2012. While the traditional Шаблон:Lang boundaries still exist the Act sets out ways where areas outside the Шаблон:Lang can be formally designated as Irish Language Networks (Шаблон:Lang-ga) and Gaeltacht Service Towns (Шаблон:Lang-ga).[1][2][3]
In 2016 it was announced that Galway City, Dingle and Letterkenny would be the first recognised Gaeltacht Service Towns, subject to them adopting and implementing approved language plans.[4][5] In February 2018 the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht and Шаблон:Lang announced that five areas - West Belfast, Loughrea, Carn Tóchair, Ennis and Clondalkin Village - were going to be designated as having the first formal Irish Language Networks.[6] [7] Foras na Gaeilge have said that they expect the status to be given to other areas.[8]
The Act also brought the process of the introduction of Language Plans in the Gaeltacht into existence and gave statutory effect to the implementation of the 20-Year Strategy for the Irish Language 2010–2030 by Údarás na Gaeltachta in the Gaeltacht and changed the process by which the board of Údarás na Gaeltachta was elected.
