Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 17 September 2014
1444. Deputy Terence Flanagan asked the Minister for Education and Skills to set out her views on correspondence (details supplied) regarding fair funding of schools; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [34855/14]
View answerI wish to inform the Deputy that I have been in discussions with all the education partners, which included Pre-Budget matters.
I met with the Joint Managerial Body which represents all voluntary secondary schools, including fee charging schools.
I received their Pre-Budget 2015 submissions, which covered the matters raised by the Deputy.
The Deputy will appreciate that I cannot at this stage anticipate any specific decisions the Government may take in the next Budget.
