And, you know, Sport Ireland weren't aware of it.

And that's why the analysis of Janello Carol is that maybe what needs to happen here is that there needs to be some kind of financial pressure put on the GAA.

Yeah.

Because I mean

Like this, as you say, it is an important thing.

It is really failing young people in Ireland to turn their back on this uh proposal.

Um, so I think it'll be interesting to see what happens from here on out.

And I know that Patrick O'Donovan, the minister, uh who is uh you know, dealing with the GAA on this, uh, he has said that he is still kind of hopeful for the 2027 timeline.

So I guess we'll see.

I guess we're going to do that.

See what happens.

Yeah, so last week Jim O'Callaghan, the Minister for Justice, uh announced several policy reforms when it comes to how people immigrate to Ireland.

Um, one of the headline changes is that the requirement for how long you live in Ireland before you can become a citizen has been increased from five well will be increased from five years to eight years, which is pretty major increase and higher than a lot of countries in Europe.

It's higher than you would have to it's longer than you'd have to live in the United States.

United Kingdom or the United States or Germany or France to become a citizen of any of those countries.

So that was pretty major.

But one of the other headline details that has caused a lot of con consternation is the introduction of a language proficiency test.

Now, language proficiency tests are pretty commonplace across the EU, for example, when it comes to citizenship.

Ireland and Malta are the only two countries that don't have one.

As it currently stands.
