Athchuinge Craolaidh Gаidhlig / Gaelic Broadcasting E-Petition

Tha mi airson fios a chur gu Ofcom gu bheil mi a lаn-chreidsinn gu bheil e deatamach a thaobh a bhith a cur cаnan Gаidhlig na h-Alba san аm ri teachd air bunait thиarainte shoirbheachail, agus ann a bhith a coileanadh dhleastanasan Riaghaltas na RA a thaobh Craoladh Gаidhlig fo Artaigeal 11 de Chщmhnant Eтrpach nam Mion-Chаnanan:
a) gun tиid sianal telebhisean digiteach Gаidhlig sтnraichte agus seasmhach a stиidheachadh cho luaths a ghabhas, le goireasan agus maoineachadh iomchaidh, agus a craoladh raon beartach de dhиagh phrтgraman, air an craoladh aig amannan amhairc iomchaidh,
b) gus an tиid an leithid de shianal a stиidheachadh, agus mus tиid gluasad gu tur thairis gu seirbheis digiteach, nach bu chтir lщghdachadh sam bith a bhith ann an аireamh agus deasachd phrтgraman Gаidhlig air sianalan analogue, agus
c) gun cumar a craoladh phrтgraman a tha air am maoineachadh le Seirbheis nam Meadhanan Gаidhlig taobh a-staigh bheаrnan amhairc prмomh-ama.

I want Ofcom to know that I strongly believe it is essential in order to secure a successful future for the Scottish Gaelic language, and in fulfillment of the UK Government's obligations on Gaelic Broadcasting under Article 11 of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages:
a) that a dedicated, sustainable digital Gaelic television service be established at the earliest possible opportunity, adequately resourced and funded, and broadcasting a rich range of quality programmes, to be scheduled at appropriate viewing times,
b) that, until such a channel is established, and prior to digital switchover, there should not be any diminution in the quantity or quality of Gaelic programming on analogue channels, and
c) that programmes funded by the Gaelic Media Service should continue to be broadcast in peak viewing slots.
