HIE a’ dearbhadh luach na Gàidhlig

6mh Iuchar 2010

Tha cùmhnant leasachaidh na Gàidhlig luach £680,000 air a thabhainn gu Comunn na Gàidhlig (CnaG) bho Iomairt na Gàidhealtachd is nan Eilean (HIE) thar an ath dhà bhliadhna.

Tha leudachadh na Gàidhlig aig cridhe raon-dleastanais HIE a thaobh leasachadh sòisealta agus choimhearsnachd air a’ Ghàidhealtachd is na h-Eileanan. Bheir a’ chùmhnant ùr comas dhan bhuidheann leasachaidh Gàidhlig, leantainn orra le bhith toirt seachad seirbheisean a tha toirt piseach air buannachdan na Gàidhlig gu h-àraid na h-àitean as cugallaich san raoin.

Tha a’ chùmhnant eadar CnaG agus HIE a’ gabhail a-steach grunn thargaidean ach ag amas gu h-àraidh air a bhi cur ri na raointean-eaconomach chudromach leithid na gnìomhachasan cruthachail agus turasachd, agus a bhi cuir an sàs ro-innleachd airson a’ mhargaidh obrach ’s a’ Ghàidhlig a leudachadh.

Tha seirbheisean a’ chùmhnant seo stèidhichte air Ro-innleachd Eaconamaidh na h-Alba cho math ri Plana Gàidhlig HIE. Tha targaidean eile ’s a’ chùmhnant ùr seo a’ gabhail a-steach àrdachadh pròiseictsan Fàs aig an Oir agus a’ toirt seachad taic-airgid do shanasan dà-chànanach agus sgeama ath-bheothachaidh coimhearsnachd.

A bharrachd air an seo, tha CnaG ag obair còmhla ri Bòrd na Gàidhlig - a’ bhuidheann leasachaidh le uallach airson stiùireadh agus riaghladh Plana Nàiseanta na Gàidhlig.

Thuirt John Watt, Stiùiriche Neartachadh Choimhearsnachdan aig HIE: "Tha e na àrd-amas aig HIE gun tig fàs air cleachdadh na Gàidhlig, agus piseach mhòr air cliù na cànain agus na tha i a’ cur ri coimhearsnachdan agus companaidhean ’s an sgìre. Tha a’ chùmhnant le CnaG air a bhith bunaiteach a thaobh obair leasachaidh HIE airson bliadhnaichean, agus tha e dearbhte gum bheil e air cur gu mòr ri obair leasachaidh na cànain thar na bliadhnaichean."

’S fhada bhon a thug HIE mothachadh dha na cothroman an lùib leasachadh na Gàidhlig, cho math ris a’ chultar agus an dualchas a bhuinneas rithe, dha na Gàidhealtachd agus na h-Eileanan. Tha Plana Gàidhlig HIE ag amas air làn-bhuannachd leasachaidh eaconamach is coimhearsnachd a’ chànain, a’ chultair agus a dhualchais, a thoirt gu buil, agus gus suidheachadh dha-riribh seasmhach airson choimhearsnachdan Gàidhlig na Gàidhealtachd a thoirt gu buil.

Thuirt Dòmhnall MacNèill, ceannard ChnaG: "Tha sinn ro-thoilichte a bhi ag obair às leth HIE gus na sgeamaichean chudromach is feumail seo an cur an sàs. Cha ghabh e àicheadh, ’s an latha a th’ ann, gu bheil cothroman ann do chompanaidhean, agus coimhearsnachdan a tha a’ cleachdadh na Gàidhlig, buannachd a thoirt às. Aig CnaG tha sinn dhen bheachd gu bheil na sgeamaichean seo nam meadhan air daoine bhrosnachadh gus brath a’ ghabhail air na cothroman sin. Tha sinn toilichte gu bheil an compàirteachadh a th’againn còmhla ri cho soirbheachail agus gu bheil seo a’ nochdadh sa chùmhnant ùr 2010-12."

HIE underlines further commitment to Gaelic

6th July 2010

A Gaelic language development contract worth £680,000 has been awarded to Comunn na Gàidhlig (CnaG) for the next two years by Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE).

Supporting Gaelic is at the heart of HIE's remit for social and community development in the Highlands and Islands and the new contract will enable the Gaelic development agency to continue to deliver services which will significantly increase the contribution of Gaelic particularly in the region's fragile areas.

The agreement between CnaG and HIE provides a series of targets and achievements and will focus on areas such as applying Gaelic in the growth of key sectors such as the creative industries and tourism in the economy of the Highlands and Islands, and the development of a strategy for growth of the Gaelic labour market.

The services set out in the contract stem from the current Government Economic Strategy and the HIE Gaelic Plan. Other targets detailed in this current contract with CnaG include promoting Fàs aig an Oir projects (Growth at the Edge) and providing grant schemes for bilingual signage and a community regeneration fund.

In addition CnaG is also currently working in partnership with Bòrd na Gàidhlig - the development agency responsible for the overall direction and management of the National Gaelic Language Plan.

HIE's Director of Strengthening Communities John Watt said: "HIE is ambitious about developing Gaelic language use and about the crucial role its culture can play in strengthening our businesses and communities. The contract with CnaG has formed the cornerstone of HIE's development work for some time and has produced demonstrable results and made a significant contribution to the language development effort.

"HIE has long recognised the opportunities that Gaelic and its associated culture and traditions present for the development of the Highlands and Islands. The HIE Gaelic Language Plan looks to fully realise the community and economic development benefits of the Gaelic language, its culture and its heritage, and will help ensure that we secure a truly sustainable future for the Gaelic communities of the Highlands and Hebrides."

Donald MacNeill, chief executive of CnaG said: "We are delighted to be working with HIE and to be able to operate these important and useful award schemes. It can't be denied these days that there are many opportunities to be found in Gaelic for companies and communities. Here at CnaG we believe these schemes are a means of encouraging people to take advantage of those opportunities, and by doing so to raise the profile of Gaelic and encourage others to do more. We are delighted at the continuing success of our partnership in Gaelic development which is clearly reflected in the renewal of the contract for 2010-12."
