Written Answers. - School Staffing.

Michael Finucane

Ceist:

113 Mr. Finucane asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will allow an extra teacher in September 1999 and not September 2000 for St. Joseph's national school, Ballybrown, Clarina, County Limerick, in view of the fact the extra teacher is urgently required. [16104/99]

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. Martin)

I am pleased to inform the Deputy that, as a result of the substantial improvement I have implemented in the staffing schedule for the 1999-2000 school year, this enrolment entitles the school to appoint an additional teacher with effect from 1 September 1999.
