There is a lot happening at present in the Irish Language Arts throughout Ireland but a lack of coordination is hampering development opportunities in the field. As a result, Irish language artists may be losing out on opportunities. In 2005 POBAL sent out a consultation to the sector. It was found that Irish language artists and providers were experiencing particular difficulties, such as: funding and assistance, finding and filling employment opportunities in the sector, developing audiences, adding to training opportunities and skills development, raising the image of Irish language Arts locally, nationally and internationally. The proposals that were strongly identified through the consultation process were used to formulate a 3 year plan for Irish Language Arts in Ireland.
