Moill go dtí 2027 ar threoirlínte pleanála Gaeltachta ag spreagadh díomá agus iontas

By Concubhar Ó Liatháin · The Journal · 13 November 2025

Tá díomá ar lucht feachtais nach bhfuil práinn ar bith ag baint le beartais tithíochta Gaeltachta a fógraíodh sa phlean náisiúnta inniu.

BEIDH AR PHOBAL na Gaeltachta fanacht go dtí an chéad leath de 2027 sula bhfoilseofar ráiteas náisiúnta pleanála don nGaeltacht, tá sé ráite sa Phlean Tithíochta a foilsíodh ar maidin.

Cé go bhfuil treoirlínte pleanála don nGaeltacht geallta go mion agus go minic ag airí éagsúla tithíochta agus Gaeltachta ó 2022, agus é ráite ann go raibh siad le foilsiú “laistigh de chúpla seachtain” nó “roimh Nollaig” nó “go luath san Athbhliain” is in aguisín de chuid an phlean ar maidin a tugadh amlíne le h-aghaidh foilsiú an ráitis náisiúnta pleanála agus de réir sin ní an ráiteas ar fáil go dtí an chéad leath de 2027.

Tá soiléireacht lorgtha ag The Journal ar na rannóga cuí Rialtais cé acu an ionann ráiteas náisiúnta pleanála don nGaeltacht agus na treoirlínte pleanála a gealladh.

Bhí súil go mbeadh tagairt sa phlean tithíochta a foilsíodh ar maidin don riachtanas go mbeadh tithíocht do chainteoirí Gaeilge á sholáthar sa Ghaeltacht agus cé go raibh tagairtí ann, is údar díomá do ghníomhaithe Gaeltachta an easpa práinn a bhain le beart sa Ghaeltacht i gcomhthéacs go bhfuil géarchéim teanga aitheanta maidir le labhairt na Gaeilge sna pobail sin.

Donncha Ó hÉallaithe, cathaoirleach Bánú, an feachtas ar son tithíocht sa Ghaeltacht, a thug an méid sin le fios agus é ag tabhairt a chéad fhreagra ar an gcáipéis a fógraíodh ag ócáid phreasa a reáchtáil an Aire Tithíochta, James Browne, in éineacht leis an Taoiseach, Mícheál Martin, agus an Tánaiste, Simon Harris, ar shuíomh tógála ar maidin.

Sa cháipéis iomlá n atá ar fáil as Béarla amháin ar shuíomh idirlín an Rialtais, níl aon tagairt bheacht don ngeallúint seo seachas an tagairt san aguisín ar leathanach 104. San aguisín sin, deirtear i mír 8.7 gur ar an Roinn Tithíochta, Oidhreachta agus Rialtas Áitiúil a bheidh an cúram seo agus nach gcomhlíonfar é go dtí an chéad leath de 2027.

Sa phreas ráiteas ar maidin, tugadh le fios freisin go mbeadh ról áirithe ag Údarás na Gaeltachta sa ghnó seo. Dúradh an méid seo:

I mír 8.6 den aguisín ar leathanach 103 den phlean a dhéantar tagairt do seo agus sa tagairt sin deirtear go mbeidh an fhreagracht as an mbeartas seo a chomhlíonadh ar Údarás na Gaeltachta, an Roinn Tithíochta, na húdaráis áitiúla agus Uisce Éireann agus is é an dara leath de 2026 an sprioc le go dtósnófar ar an obair sin.

Dar le Donncha Ó hÉallaithe ón mbrúghrúpa tithíochta Gaeltachta, Bánú, ní raibh “mórán dul chun cinn déanta ó thaobh soláthar tithíochta do chainteoirí Gaeilge sa nGaeltacht sa phlean seo”.

Is cinnte freisin gur bhain sé siar as gurb é an chéad leath de 2027 an sprioc le h-aghaidh foilsiú an ráiteas náisiúnta pleanála don nGaeltacht.

“Ní thuigim ó thalamh an domhain cén fáth go gcaithfidh muid fanacht go 2027 le raiteas náisiúnta pleanála faoi thithíocht sa nGaeltacht. Ba cheart an raiteas sin a chur le cheile ar bhun práinne.

“Tá muid fós ag fanacht ar Treoirlínte Pleanála a gealladh 3 bhliain ó shin.”

Tá soiléireacht ar an amlíne seo iarrtha ag The Journal ón Roinn Tithíochta.
