July Education Programme: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-06-10
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

I was vocal previously on the issue of planning for the reopening of the schools and wish to comment briefly on it again. It occurred to me when the Minister was speaking earlier about dates that it is three months since the schools closed. In all that time, as I said on the last occasion, schools have not had any direct communication from the Department on what they should be doing to prepare to reopen. We will see what comes out on Friday but as far as I am concerned, it is more than a few days late. I hope it is not a dollar short as well.
