Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for his reply and appreciate this is not his brief. However, three quarters of his reply was irrelevant to the matter I raised. There will be a reduction in the number of part-time students. I impress upon him the need to ask the Minister for Education and Science how the Cork School of Music can continue to provide the full range of music tuition given that there will be no intake of students. That is the question to which the pupils, parents and teachers need an answer.
