Green TD says education budget ‘a lost opportunity’

FIANNA FÁIL was last night accused of a “clear breach of the Programme for Government” by one of the Green Party’s most vocal TDs.

Chairman of the Oireachtas Education Committee Paul Gogarty said the recent budget was like the proverbial curate’s egg.

“It’s good in parts, but with bits that would turn one’s stomach, none more so than in the area of education,” he said.
