I support Senators Quinn, Wilson, O'Reilly and the others who spoke in favour of the value of the applied leaving certificate. I have a daughter who completed this course and know that it proved invaluable. The criteria that are being applied, as outlined by Senator Quinn, which debar those who have completed this course from entering the appropriate institutions for those who wish to enter the catering business as a career, are nothing short of ludicrous. I ask that this matter be reviewed. This course has great relevance, has proved its worth and will stand the test of time.
