FIRST Minister Arlene Foster briefly spoke as Gaeilge today as she answered an assembly question on the Irish language.
The DUP leader was responding to Lagan Valley independent MLA Trevor Lunn, who enquired whether Irish language legislation would be enacted before the end of the current mandate.
Mrs Foster said the legislation was part of package on identity and cultural pieces that it was hoped could be brought forward by May next year.
