Richard Bruton
Question:662 Mr. R. Bruton asked the Minister for Education and Science the reason non-Irish teachers at second level are required to have oral Irish in cases where the job they undertake does not involve any use of Irish; whether this policy has been assessed by the EU for consistency with rules governing free movement of labour within the EU; and if he will sanction positions in schools for teachers requiring no fluency in Irish.
