246. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if she will detail whether any surveys have been carried out to estimate the amount of time taken up with administrative tasks where such time could be used more efficiently; if so, in which areas of the Department has this examination been carried out; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

As outlined in the Department of Education’s Statement of Strategy, 2023- 25: www.gov.ie/en/publication/d7691-department-of-education-statement-of-strategy-2023-2025/, my Department is committed to achieving and developing Organisational Excellence and Innovation. While no specific surveys have been carried out to estimate the amount of time taken up with administrative tasks and where such time could be used more efficiently, we are continually reviewing processes and practices, to improve the quality of services we deliver and maximise the use of digital technology.
