ULSTER SCOTS AGENCY

The Ulster-Scots Agency is currently engaged in promoting activity and programmes to support both the language and the people who wish to use it... The aim of the Ulster-Scots Agency is to promote the study, conservation, development and use of Ulster-Scots as a living language, to encourage the full range of its attendant culture; and to promote an understanding of the history of the Ulster Scots... The Ulster-Scots Agency, or Tha Boord o Ulster Scotch as it is known in Ullans (another name for the Ulster-Scots language), has been given the legislative remit of the "promotion of greater awareness and use of Ullans and of Ulster-Scots cultural issues, both within Northern Ireland and throughout the island".
