I would like to ask the Minister about the number of education centres and the funding of them in each of the past five years given that there is an enormous appetite among teachers to have continuous professional development. They need it and they are anxious to acquire it. What is the budget in this regard? How many centres are there? Can the Minister tell us a bit more about it? The Teaching Council also has a role in this regard.
