Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Education and Skills

This is an operational matter for the City of Dublin Education and Training Board (CDETB). I understand from CDETB that it is re-organising its literacy service in this area but that there will be no reduction in the level of provision available to learners. The extent of the literacy service to be provided and the organisation of classes in any centre is a matter for the ETB.
