Mary O'Rourke
Question:88 Mrs. O'Rourke asked the Minister for Education if she will review the case put forward by the board of management of a school (details supplied) in County Westmeath who are awaiting sanction for a permanent position of a special teacher for travellers; if her attention has been drawn to the fact that this school satisfies all the requirements to convert the temporary position to a permanent one; if her attention has further been drawn to the fact that the number of traveller children on the school roll almost qualifies the school for a second such teacher; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
