Éamon Ó Cuív: Mar is eol don Aire Stáit, bhí muid ag caint faoin gceist seo ar 28 Meitheamh. Tá mé ar ais arís anois agus níl aon athrú ar an scéal. Bhí an Teachta romham ag caint ar oideachas triú leibhéal ach is í fírinne an scéil ná an rud a shocraíonn cé chomh maith a dhéanann scoláirí ná an t-oideachas bunleibhéal.

Éamon Ó Cuív: Having listened to the Minister of State's response it is clear he did not listen to what I said.
