asked the Minister for Education if he will take the steps necessary to allow for the promotion of parent-teacher advisory committees to assist the school managers in running primary schools.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Parent-Teacher Advisory Committees.
Under the existing system of national education the managers are the persons charged with the direct government of the schools. I am not aware that managers desire the assistance of advisory committees in the discharge of their managerial duties or that the necessity for any such assistance arises. I do not propose to make any change in the present arrangement.
