Cabinet Committees
Dail Éireann — 2021-09-28
============================================================

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1 to 9, inclusive, together.
The Cabinet committee on education oversees implementation of the programme for Government commitments in the area of education, including preparing for post-Covid education. The Cabinet committee last met on 13 May and discussed topics including special education policy in schools and increased demand for places at third level in 2021 and 2022. I have regular engagement with Ministers at Cabinet and individually to discuss priority issues relating to their Departments. In addition, a number of meetings have been held between my officials and officials from relevant Departments since the establishment of the Cabinet committee in July 2020.
