Question:

72 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will appoint an additional teacher to Marymount national school, the Rower, County Kilkenny, in view of the fact that an error occurred in September 1997 which understated the enrolment figures; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13890/98]

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. Martin)

An inspector from my Department has been asked to visit Marymount national school to clarify the enrolment at the school in September, 1997.

As soon as the inspector's report is received, the staffing allocation at the school for the 1998-9 school year will be determined and the board of management informed accordingly.
