Report on Music and Education
5:00 pm
Máire Hoctor (Tipperary North, Fianna Fail)
I support Senator Keaveney on this. I appreciate the sum required is a drop in the ocean compared to other funds. The importance of music in schools has not been fully realised. People who find expression in music have fewer emotional and intellectual difficulties. It is important that funding is put in place for this for the future. I assure the Senator that I will bring her sentiments and determination in this regard to the Minister's attention.
