Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Regulation of the English Language Sector: Discussion

Mr. Fiachra ? Luain:

Yes. I do feel the reasons given for the reopening of the sector was for the existing cohort. This was not true, and I believe that the then Minister, who is the current Taoiseach, was mislead by sectoral stakeholders. I have raised this, and I do think that is a serious issue of governance that we can have sectoral interests misleading a Minister about the reasons for reopening. Public health was jeopardised because of that and I have every reason to believe the then Minister was mislead and was not aware he was being misled.
