Mr. R. Burke
With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 11, 12 and 13 together.
It is estimated that there are about 700 secondary school going pupils living in the Mervue/Renmore area. The question of the future organisation of secondary education in the area is at present under consideration in my Department but no official proposals in connection with the matter have yet been put to the interests concerned.
