Mary Wallace
Question:551 Miss M. Wallace asked the Minister for Education the reason the B.tech. Diploma in social studies in Inchicore is not acceptable for employment as a social worker in this country; the distinction between that diploma and the higher diploma in social studies which is required for a social worker; the value of the B.tech. Diploma in social studies in Inchicore and in other similar institutions if it does not qualify the participants who studied over a three year period; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
