Covid-19 (Education and Skills): Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-04-23
============================================================

Joe McHugh (FG), Donegal

All the conversations we are having are through the dedicated advisory group. As recently as last Friday, the Irish Second-Level Students Union raised issues such as plan B and what are the contingencies, such as contingencies for sickness or bereavement. All of these pertinent questions are being asked. We are going to work on the contingencies and we will not go into this in a blinkered way because we are living in a real world of uncertainty.
