The Leader promised me two weeks ago that the Minister for Education and Science, Deputy Batt O'Keeffe, would come to the House for a serious debate on education. I listened to the Minister in the Dáil last night and he said something very important and correct. He said the quality of teaching in the classroom is what matters. However, it is very important that he knows that class size affects the quality of teaching in the classroom, as does the inclusion of children with special education needs and foreign national children without English. Heaping them in on top of other children, as it were, is outrageous.

I listened to the hypocrisy of the Green Party in Ireland and how it is letting down its Green colleagues in Finland.
