    Abstract

    Reaction to Minister Alan Kelly’s suggestion on RTÉ television’s ‘The Week in Politics’ (Oct 7th) offers an instructive case-study of how powerful interests campaign to preserve the status quo. Kelly had suggested that the state’s funding of fee-charging schools is a luxury rather than a necessity and that it “must come to an end”.
