Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I can confirm to the Deputy that further information has been supplied by the school, referred to, in relation to its application to continue the rental of a prefab unit. This information is currently being assessed and a decision will be conveyed to the school authority as soon as this process is finalised.
