Very important to recognise the absolutely vital place @SabhalMorOstaig has in #Gaelic development and to secure its future.
Sabhal Mòr Ostaig - There is strong desire for @SabhalMorOstaig, the world's only Gaelic FE/HE institution, to have degree-issuing powers. My amendment here would require Ministers to review its status with that specific question in mind.

Very granular visualisations of language skills in #Census2022 - open all sorts of research questions! 👇 #Scots #ScottishEnglish #Gaelic #Gaidhlig
