Celtic Tiger (Irish Oral)
This is a topic that can be discussed in the Irish Oral
Level	H/O

Here it would be wise show your strengths by comparing and contrasting the pro's and con's of the Celtic Tiger, stating that you can see the economy is booming by discussing busy shoppers etc and then following on with the people who are not as well off. You can also focus in on some Charity organisations who work to help the less well off.

Sample Q&A

1. Q: Cad é do mheas ar an Tíogar Ceilteach?
   1. Tá an Tíogar Ceilteach ag búiríl in ard a ghutha (nó bhí go dtí le deanaí!) - ní gá ach sracfhéachaint a thabhairt are phríomhshráideanna na tire chun an méid seo a thabhairt faoi deara. Bíonn siad plódaithe le lucht siopadóireachta ó ceann na seachtaine. Ach nuair a thagann an oíche, feicfidh tú an taobh eile den scéal. Daoine gan dídean ag codladh i bpóirsi nó ag siúl na sráideanna gan stad chun an teas a choinnéail ina gcnámha. An té atá thuas, óltar deoch air - an té atá thíos buailtear cos air. Is fíor don sheanfocal seo. Níl an tíogar Ceilteach seo ag búiríl do gach duine, ná baol air. Cé a smaoiníonn ar na créatúir bhochta seo? Is beag a dhéanann mise ná tusa, ar aon chaoi! Murach leithéidí Chlann Síomóin lena "gcuairt anraith" agus Cumann Naomh Uinseann de Pól a thugann cabhair do no boicht, bheadh go leor de na fuaidirí seo marbh na blianta ó shin. Is ea, Tíogar santach é an Tíogar Ceilteach céanna.
