Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Education and Youth if her attention has been drawn to the means by which the use of recording devices and voice activated computers under the scheme of reasonable accommodations at certificate examinations is quality assured; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 487 and 488 together.
The State Examinations Commission (SEC) has responsibility for the operation and delivery of the State examinations, and facilitates access to the examinations through its scheme of reasonable accommodations at the certificate examinations, otherwise known as the RACE scheme.
In view of this, I have asked the SEC to respond directly to the Deputy.
