Ms Bronagh Riordan:

It is a brilliant question that the Deputy asked. It is important that the whole of society is educated as it pertains to their needs. Deputy Keogh identified a key item. We need to look at what segments of society need what types of literacy and for what purpose. In business, we would look at what a business stands for and what its strategy is and how you liaise literacy with that. Similarly for society, we should do the same. Someone in secondary school, third level education, someone in business versus someone in society and the older population may need a different level of literacy. It is important that we tap into that and we take that on as a nation and understand how we educate as it pertains to each person in society for their benefit so they understand what the technology is and how they may use it or not use it to their benefit.
