Ruairi Quinn (Dublin South East, Labour)

Yes, it is, and we will have to be innovative in how we do it. Taking Navan as an example, we will have to undertake some type of inventory to ascertain the education infrastructure in the whole of Navan, irrespective of which school has what, and devise an holistic overview so we can maximise the utilisation of those resources for the 21st century rather than the 18th or 19th century when there were different teaching orders and different social hierarchies which are no longer relevant. We will have to think in a radical way that was not seen before, and I intend to lead that review.
