Trusteeship Documents and School Instruction

Summary

Horgan asked whether school trusteeship documents specify arrangements for secular and religious instruction. Wilson said they do not and that a copy would be placed in the Library; he expected this to happen that day.

asked the Minister for Education the arrangements that are made in the trusteeship document governing each national school for (a) secular, and (b) religious instruction.

Comment on this

No such arrangements are specified in the document in question, a copy of which is being placed in the Library of Dáil Éireann.

Comment on this

Has it not been the practice for some time to specify that schools should provide combined secular instruction and separate religious instruction?

Comment on this

My brief says that no such arrangements are specified in the document in question. A copy will be placed in the Library for the perusal of the Deputies.
