Seanad debates

Tuesday, 2 December 2003

Senator Ulick Burke mentioned the National Educational Welfare board and the drop-out rate of 18% at second level. He said that €6 million was provided rather than the €12 million which is needed, but one must start somewhere. If one gives everybody everything they want, there will not be much else to do. The board's aims are very strong and I am sure it will get its dues in future budgets and Estimates.
