Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence
Education in Developing Countries: Discussion
Gerard Craughwell (Independent) | Oireachtas source
On the security issue in schools, in parts of Africa we have seen young men as young as ten or 11 years running around the place with Kalashnikov rifles. Violence seems to be the name of the game for them. Does Mr. Casey envisage the possibility of needing to have armed guards around the school to allow for a safe environment? I know the two things are mutually repugnant but the important thing is to get quality education in a safe environment. Does he see any need for that?
