Subject: European Minority Languages Petition

    I have only recently re-subscribed to Lowlands-L after a five week
absence, so I don't know if the following has been posted during that time.
If it has, apologies for repeating it......

European Minority Languages Petition.

As part of the European Year of Languages 2001, the European Bureau for
Lesser Used Languages has instituted a campaign for the minority language of
Europe. They are seeking names for a petition asking the European
Parliament, the Council of Europe and the European Commission to support a
legal act to give more support to the minority languages of the European
Union. The petition can be signed online at:
www.eblul.org/dc/petition-gb.htm

The EBLUL hope to collect 50,000 signatures in the UK and 250,000 names from
the European Union before the end of October. Petition sheets are also
available from: Domhnall Martainn, Secretary, EBLUL UK Committee, 71-77
Srid Chrombail, Steornabhagh, Eilean Ledhais, HS1 2DG or from
eblul_petition at hotmail.com

Sonse tae ye'se,
David Wilson.
