View answerLast Wednesday I, along with Department and SOLAS officials, met with the Deputy, who was joined by Dublin Dún Laoghaire ETB (DDLETB) and the principal of Blakestown Community school, in relation to this matter.
It was agreed at the meeting that DDLETB/Blakestown would send a proposal to SOLAS in relation to the fitting out and allocation of four additional PLC provisions commencing in September 2019 in Dublin 15.
SOLAS will respond appropriately to DDLETB once the proposal is received.
