Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 2 June 2004
124 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Education and Science further to Parliamentary Question No. 398 of 29 April 2004 the action his Department is taking to provide full-time education for a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16638/04]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Deputy will be aware of the general position concerning the enrolment of pupils in second level schools, which I outlined in my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 398 of 27 April 2004. An application to enrol the student referred to by the Deputy has been made to Scoil Aireagail, Ballyhale. However, I understand that no decision has been made on this application. An educational welfare officer of the National Educational Welfare Board is maintaining contact with the child's family. My Department has not received an application for additional resources from this school in respect of the student in question.
