Brian Hayes (Dublin South West, Fine Gael)

Is that not a fair and reasonable position? Will he speak about his response as Head of Government?

He is aware that a number of commitments were given in the national development plan, one of which concerned the upgrading of technology in schools. A commitment was given to spend €252 million over the seven years of the NDP. Do commitments underwritten by the NDP remain regardless of the commitments given in the programme? The commitment on technology has not seen a brass farthing since it was outlined in January 2007.
