26.

Mr. Harte

asked the Minister for Social Welfare if he will arrange to have the school meals scheme extended to those areas in County Donegal at present classified as Breac-Ghaeltacht areas, but not now benefiting under this scheme.

Minister for Education (Dr. Hillery) (for the Minister for Social Welfare)

I have no power under existing legislation to extend the Gaeltacht School Meals Scheme to any area not scheduled under the School Meals (Gaeltacht) Act, 1930.
