P-05-757 Remove the Obligation on Schools to Hold Acts of Religious Worship, Correspondence – Petitioner to Committee, 09.10.19

Dear Petitions Committee,

We are extremely frustrated by the Minister’s continued delay in responding properly to our petition.

She has previously stated that her response would come soon, yet it now seems to be receding further into the future.

We cannot believe the legal advice she sought has not been provided. 

The Minister says her priority is the National Curriculum. Yet the issue we have raised is entirely separate to the National

Curriculum.

We ask the committee to put further pressure on the Minister, who we believe is allowing a breach of human rights to continue.
