Child Poverty
Dail Éireann — 2023-01-31
============================================================

Jennifer Murnane O'Connor (FF), Carlow-Kilkenny

Every school should be a DEIS school because under it, students get hot meals, including lunches, which is important. It is also important to mention free schoolbooks for primary schools this year. These are the things we need to do to make sure parents have enough money to pay for extra costs because of the cost-of-living crisis. I ask the Taoiseach to consider that.
