Tony Gregory
Ceist:138 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Education her views on whether national schools in acutely disadvantaged areas with serious discipline problems are adversely affected by the panel system and in some specific instances cannot fill their vacancies until every other school has filled theirs and on the fact that this can influence the quality of the teachers available to them and only serves to compound the schools problems; if she will allow a school (details supplied) in Dublin 1 to advertise a permanent position, in view of this; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
