NUI Galway Schemes (under section 11 of the Official Languages Act 2003)

NUI Galway Scheme 2012-2015:   

http://www.nuigalway.ie/sceim_na_hollscoile/documents/nui_galway_language_scheme_20122015.pdf

This scheme lays out the University's commitments to providing Irish language services to our staff and students over the coming years. It is the result of a process of consulting with staff around the University, with input from both the Department of Arts, Heritage and Gaeltacht, and the Language Commissioner's Office.
The main objective of the scheme is to ensure that staff proactively offer services through the medium of Irish throughout the campas. The new G symbol has been created so as to make it clear to Irish speakers where they can avail of services through Irish. This symbol is directed primarily at those places of significant contact with the public, where a high standard of service through Irish is available. The main feature of the new scheme is to ensure there is an active offer of Irish in a range of services around campus. To make this offer more obvious, a new G symbol has been created to help Irish users identify services where they can use the language.
