[email protected] 88% increase in the number of Airbnb homes in the Gaeltacht since 2019. Ardú 88 faoin gcéad ar líon na dtithe Airbnb sa Ghaeltacht ó 2019. The number of homes available on Airbnb in the Gaeltacht has increased by 88% since 2019, according to new figures published by Conradh na Gaeilge and the tenants' association CATU. Tá ardú 88 faoin gcéad tagtha ó 2019 ar líon na dtithe atá ar fáil ar Airbnb sa Ghaeltacht, de réir figiúirí nua atá foilsithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge agus ag an gcumann tionóntaí CATU. That's a 40% increase more than the national increase. Sin ardú 40 faoin gcéad níos mó ná an t-ardú náisiúnta. In the West Kerry and South Kerry Language Planning Areas, for example, more than 16% of all private properties in both places are homes available on Airbnb, according to the figures. I Limistéir Phleanála Teanga Chiarraí Thiar agus Chiarraí Theas, cuir i gcás, is tithe atá ar fáil ar Airbnb iad níos mó ná 16 faoin gcéad de na háitribh phríobháideacha ar fad sa dá áit, de réir na bhfigiúirí. In the Islands District of Connemara, there were nine homes available on Airbnb in 2019 compared to 27 in 2025, an increase of 200%. I gCeantar na nOileán i gConamara, bhí naoi dteach ar fáil ar Airbnb in 2019 le hais 27 in 2025, ar méadú de 200 faoin gcéad é sin. In Gaoth Dobhair, Rann na Feirste, Anagaire and Lough an Uír in Co Donegal, there were 66 homes available on Airbnb in 2019 compared to 139 this year, an increase of 110%. I nGaoth Dobhair, i Rann na Feirste, in Anagaire agus i Loch an Iúir i gCo Dhún na nGall, bhí 66 teach ar fáil ar Airbnb in 2019 le hais 139 i mbliana, ar méadú de 110 faoin gcéad é. Róisín Ní Chinnéide, Advocacy Manager for Conradh na Gaeilge, said that the figures show that "the Gaeltacht is being strangled by Airbnb's tight grip" and criticized the Government for turning everyone's fundamental right to have a place to live into a commodity. Dúirt Róisín Ní Chinnéide, Bainisteoir Abhcóideachta Chonradh na Gaeilge go léiríonn na figiúirí "go bhfuil an Ghaeltacht á tachtadh ag greim docht Airbnb" agus cháin sí an Rialtas as an mbuncheart atá ag gach duine áit chónaithe a bheith acu a iompú ina earra. Paul D'Eath from CATU called for legislation to be introduced to tackle the problem. D'iarr Paul D'Eath ó CATU reachtaíocht a thabhairt isteach le dul i ngleic leis an bhfadhb. The figures were compiled by the action group Inside Airbnb on behalf of Conradh na Gaeilge and CATU. Is iad lucht an ghrúpa gnímh Inside Airbnb a chuir na figiúirí i dtoll a chéile ar son Chonradh na Gaeilge agus CATU. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ
