Richard Bruton (Dublin Bay North, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank all Members, both of the education committee and the House, for their co-operation on the Bill. It is good legislation. Ireland is changing and we need to change with it. Citizens' expectations of the education system have changed. This Bill will go some distance towards ensuring that we keep up with those changes. No doubt, they will continue in the years ahead.
