Language Schemes Template and Handbook

The Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media has prepared a generic template and accompanying handbook to facilitate the preparation of language schemes by public bodies.

The template below should be used by public bodies when preparing language schemes. The handbook should be read in conjunction with the Guidelines that have been published under Section 12 of the Official Languages Act.
