Educational inclusion action plan
Deputy Cowen asked when the updated action plan for educational inclusion will be completed and whether it will be brought before the House. The Tánaiste said the review is ongoing and he would ask the relevant Minister to respond in detail.
There was a commitment in the programme for Government to publish an updated action plan for educational inclusion to narrow the gap between DEIS schools and non-DEIS schools and to examine how the students outside DEIS might better be supported. Can the Minister confirm that the action plan has commenced? When will it be completed? Will it be laid before the House in order for it to be debated?
