I would like that clarified because I believe we are going around in circles with regard to the Teaching Council. The council seems to be only looking after the actual qualifications and that teachers are registered with those qualifications. What I am getting back from Ms Fox is that thereafter, the council has no role in this regard, so we are going to have to go somewhere else for the details we need. Perhaps Ms Fox can tell the committee what the Teaching Council would need to try to get more information or does she believe this is in the remit of the Teaching Council? Is the council just happy to do what it actually does?
