Summary
Horgan seeks an assurance that corporal punishment is not used in Loughan House’s educational regime and asks about the Minister’s responsibility; the Chair and Minister say the matter belongs to a separate question and another Minister.
Arising out of the detailed nature of the Minister's reply concerning the fact that the EEC decision relates only to judicial punishment, can he give the House an assurance that no corporal punishment will be used as part of the educational regime in Loughan House?
