Higgins asked the Minister for Education and Science if, in order to ensure the delivery of the most appropriate teaching skills in the teaching of English as a second language, she will ensure the religious ethos exemption will not be used in such a way as to impede the recruitment, establishment or promotion of those with exceptional skills who have come into the area of teaching, and whose contribution is both necessary and invaluable; if she has satisfied herself that to invoke the religious exemption in order to adversely affect the employment prospects of an applicant to a teaching position would breach the spirit and letter of Irish, European and international equality legislation.
