I REFER to Darren Mac an Phriora’s letter (Irish Examiner, September 2) in relation to Conradh na Gaeilge’s work in general and to our campaign to improve the teaching of Irish in education in particular.

I AM surprised by Enda Kenny’s proposal that Irish not be taken by all Leaving Cert students in future. If such a proposal were implemented the result would be the marginalisation of Irish as a subject in our schools.
