lpv:translated text	". An Irish language version of this Parliament’s website is needed now. For almost six years this Parliament has breached the principle of non-discrimination, by producing its website in 22 of the 23 official EU languages, but not in Irish. This blatant discrimination against the marginalised cannot be justified. The Irish language derogation does not justify it - it concerns legislation, and not communication with the public. Nor is there any shortage of qualified translators. For almost two years the EP has in fact been defying Council Regulation (EU) No 1257/2010, which says clearly, ‘The institutions will continue to take steps to improve access to information in Irish on the activities of the Union.’ The passing of this report on the recording of interventions in plenary should at least ensure that speeches made in Irish will remain on the website in Irish and not be removed as soon as they are translated into English; a small but important step. A formal complaint of language discrimination against the EP has now been lodged with the European Ombudsman. It is high time we had equality here."@en1
