Brian Hayes (Dublin South West, Fine Gael)

Given that the Government will not allow me to ask questions to be answered next week and I will have no opportunity to table a motion on the Adjournment and no opportunity for priority questions, can the Tánaiste please explain why her Department is now sacking 40 librarians in some of the poorest schools in the country? How can she justify this given that two weeks ago she told librarians in my constituency that those jobs were safe?
