Written answers

The school to which the Deputy refers commenced operation with provisional recognition from my Department in September 2002. During the period of provisional recognition, it is the responsibility of the school patron to provide interim accommodation. This accommodation must be capable of fully meeting the needs of the developing school until permanent recognition has been secured and my Department is in a position to acquire a site and provide a permanent school building. An application for permanent recognition has been received from the school authority and is under consideration in the school planning section of my Department. A decision in this matter will be taken as quickly as possible.
