Joe Walsh
Question:47 Mr. J. Walsh asked the Minister for Education the reason information is not readily available in her Department in relation to the simple matter of quantifying the number of art teachers in our second level system further to her reply to Parliamentary Question No. 81 of 30 April 1997; the reason two out of four parts of the question were totally ignored in the reply, in particular the extent of art teaching by non-art trained teachers; and if she will make a statement on the reason for the seeming chaos in relation to the management and monitoring of this highly specialised teaching activity by her Department.
