I thank the Deputy. Again, I want to be clear. I have never been ambiguous around the fact that I am an advocate of students getting the maximum opportunity to showcase their talents and present themselves in the best possible light at every step in education, including in the leaving certificate exam. I have said very clearly that there will be a review of the operation of the scheme. This is right and proper. There has been great learning, this year and previously, and I believe we need to look at these learnings going forward. At the centre of it must be the opportunity for students to perform to their best capacity. This review, which will take place under the auspices of the SEC, will be very helpful and will provide direction going forward.
