UN Committee Report on Children in Ireland: Statements

 

4:00 pm

Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

We need to know when it will happen and why it has not already been done.

Overcrowding in our schools really needs to be tackled. With our increasing population, even for a child to get into a school is a problem. While I welcome the report, it contains much of which we need to take heed and on which we need to work urgently to ensure that the next generation will be provided for. In particular, priority should be given to disadvantaged children.
