Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I said previously in the House that I met the Minister for Education and Skills and the chief inspector and senior officials in the Department of Education and Skills. It is their absolute desire and commitment to have the normal leaving certificate next year, that is, the normal written exams as well as other aspects of it. Obviously, Covid-19 will have some impact on, perhaps, certain aspects around the oral examinations and so forth. They are, however, determined to have the leaving certificate and are already working in that regard.
