We have had a good debate here today and are very fortunate to have the expertise of particular Senators, such as Senators Barrett, Quinn and Craughwell and, indeed, Senator Power in her education brief. The Minister quite clearly addressed their concerns, has agreed to bring a number of amendments to the Dáil based on proposals made by the aforementioned Senators and has said she will return to this House when the amendments have been passed by the Dáil. She explained the reason she could not bring the amendments forward today due to time constraints caused by her talks on other issues. However, she will address a number of the amendments.
