Marcus is tasked with promoting the Irish language and you will hear a great chat now about the role of the Irish language in the history, geography and culture of Galway. As the local authority for Ireland’s third largest city - a leader in culture, education and business - Galway City Council is delivering services for a population of 83,456, with a 2023 revenue budget of €113 million, and a capital budget of around €5 billion over the next decade.
