Question 482: To ask the Minister for Education and Science if her attention has been drawn to a case in which a child who is attending a special needs class is being charged the full €88 even though they are only sitting one junior certificate examination; and if so, her views on whether it is fair to charge every pupil the same amount even though some students are sitting considerably less examinations than others.

The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations, including charging and collecting fees for examinations and applying such moneys to the carrying out of its functions. In view of this, I have forwarded the Deputy's query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to him.
