John Gormley

Ceist:

200 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Education and Science if he has received representations from St. Matthew's national school in Cranfield Place, Dublin 4, for special education needs resources; if so, if the request can be expedited; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31659/03]

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. N. Dempsey)

I can confirm that representations have been received from St. Matthew's national school and that an application from the school for special educational needs resources is being considered by a dedicated team of inspectors and psychologists. The school will be informed of the outcome as soon as possible.
