The DUP has slammed the concept of an Irish language Gaeltacht Quarter in Belfast after a council committee agreed to blanket coverage of dual-language street signs in the area to save money.

There are 700 streets across the city with outstanding applications for dual-language street signs. The Gaeltacht Quarter has 417 streets, 108 of which already have bilingual signs.
