The proposal also aimed to stop the decline of the Irish language by creating an Irish-speaking community in a new location. Each family was provided with a Land Commission house and a farm of approximately 8.9 <a href="/wiki/Hectare" title="Hectare">hectares</a> (22 <a href="/wiki/Acre" title="Acre">acres</a>), a sow, piglets and basic implements.
