Gaelic Language Plan 2015-2020: draft for consultation

Annex A: Responding to this Consultation

Consultation is an essential and important aspect of the Scottish Government working methods. Scottish Government consultation exercises aim to provide opportunities for all those who wish to express their opinions on a proposed area of work to do so in ways which will inform and enhance that work.

The Scottish Government is seeking views on the second iteration of its Gaelic Language Plan, to inform the execution of our commitment to Gaelic, and to inform how we can best support the development of the Gaelic language in Scotland.

We are inviting responses to this consultation paper by Monday 22 June 2015. You may respond by completing our online questionnaire, available at https://consult.scotland.gov.uk/curraicealam-measadh-gaidhlig/consultation-on-the-draft-scottish-government-gael
