Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Education and Skills

My Department is progressing work on proposals to run an expanded summer programme again this year with more schools involved.

These proposals are being developed based on engagement and consultation with the education partners. The issue raised by the Deputy is being considered as part of this work.

A further announcement on this will be made in due course.
