Literacy Levels.
4:00 pm
Olwyn Enright (Laois-Offaly, Fine Gael)
My question refers to the question I asked the Minister about primary schools. A submission will be made to the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Education and Science that a number of adult non-nationals are taking places on adult literacy classes. Whereas they are completely literate in their own language, they need English language classes to be provided for them. Has the Minister of State any mechanism in mind to provide for people who need literacy classes can avail of them and those who need English language classes will have that facility afforded to them?
