What is a Gaelic language plan and who should have one?
A Gaelic language plan is a means by which Gaelic speakers can access public services in their own language, and the plan shows the efforts a public body will make to ensure the same esteem is given to Gaelic as is to English in the work and services of the organisation. Under the Gaelic Act Bòrd na Gàidhlig asks a number of public bodies each year to prepare a Gaelic language plan. However, any organisation can have a Gaelic language plan, and the Bòrd is only too willing to give advice to any organisation which wants to implement a Gaelic language plan.
