Perhaps the Deputy should have listened to what I just said. I will work with the Department of Education and Skills, the education centres and the Arts Council to bring forward this initiative. It is an important initiative which will enable the creative potential of every child. It will allow children to have access to tuition in music, dance, coding or whatever form in which they wish to participate. I agree we must encourage and promote the arts through our schools.
