A spokesperson for Donegal Town Community Chamber outlined what is involved: “Under the Gaeltacht Act a lead organisation / committee will be selected in each Service Town to undertake putting together a language plan for the town. 

“An information meeting organised by Foras na Gaeilge will be held for all committees, organisations  and other interested parties operating in Donegal Town”

The meeting will take place in The Central Hotel, Donegal Town on Thursday, February 6 at 7pm.
