Batt O'Keeffe (Cork North West, Fianna Fail)

I have assured the schools in question that they will be able to make a special case. It has been suggested that additional language teachers will be allocated to particular schools on the basis of nods and winks, etc. Before 2006, the number of language support teachers who could be allocated to each school was capped at two. I have made it clear I want to ensure that schools that have been seen to integrate such pupils will be given the additional resources they require.
