Latha na Gàidhlig 2002 |
25 September 2002 |
Mar phàirt den dleasdanas ann a bhith a brosnachadh agus a' leasachadh na Gàidhlig, tha Comhairle nan Eilean Siar air Latha na Gàidhlig a' stèidheachadh air Diardaoin 26 Sulatin 2002. Chaidh an latha seo a thaghadh air sgàth agus gu robh Latha nan Cànan a' gabhail àite anns an Roinn Eòrpa, far a bheil cudthrom ga chuir air coimhearsnachd ioma-chànanach. Thatar a' brosnachadh luchd-obraich gu bhith a' cleachdadh Gàidhlig air an latha sin, agus tha program de thachartasan ga chuir air dòigh, nam measg seirbheis ghoirid, oraidean agus sgeulachdan. Cuideachd thatar an dùil oidhirp a dheanamh air "Dìreach mionaid" agus "Miann an Airgid".
Thuirt an Iar Fhear Gairm, Ruairidh Moireach:
'S e Latha na Gaidhlig aon doigh a tha a' Chomhairle a cleachdadh airson iomhaigh na Gàidhlig a thogail a-measg an luchd-obraich againn fhein agus a choimhearsnachd air fad. . Tha sinn an dochas gu bheil rudeigin ann a chòrdas ris a h-uile duine. Tha mi cinnteach gun còrd an latha ris an luchd-obraich agus ma tha uidh aig duine a thighinn gu pairt sam bith den latha, bithidh failte chridheil rompa."
As part of its ongoing commitment to the promotion and development of the Gaelic language Comhairle nan Eilean Siar is to stage 'Gaelic Day' on Thursday 26 September 2002. This date was chosen to coincide with Language Day in Europe, where an emphasis is placed on a multi-lingual society. All employees will be encouraged to use Gaelic and there will be a full programme of events, including a short sermon, lectures and story-telling as well as Gaelic versions of the popular quiz programmes 'Just a Minute' and 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Commenting on the programme, Vice-Convener, Mr Roderick j Murray said:
"Latha na Gaidhlig is one of the many ways that the Comhairle use to promote the Gaelic language, particularly amongst our own staff, but also for the wider community. We have tried to ensure that there is something for everyone. I am sure that many staff will take part in what will be an enjoyable day, and if there are members of the public interested in attending they will be more than welcome"
