Ceisteanna (111)

John Curran

Ceist:

106 Mr. Curran asked the Minister for Education and Science the grounds on which the advisory committee has refused recognition of a new gaelscoil in Lucan, in view of the fact that this new Gaelscoil has 48 students enrolled, that future potential development at Gaelscoil Naomh Pádraig is limited, that the population of Lucan continues to grow with a significant increased demand for primary school places and that Gaelscoil Cois Life will have capacity for a significant number of Irish speaking second level students for the foreseeable future; if he will review this decision and grant recognition to this school.

An appeal of the decision not to grant recognition to the proposed new gaelscoil in Lucan was recently received in my Department. The independent appeals committee will assess the appeal and issue its decision to the patron within 15 working days.

It would be inappropriate for me to comment any further in this matter while the appeal process is ongoing.
