============================================================

Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

Like the Deputy herself, I do not initially see how the guidelines would impact on the after-school element more than any other element. They apply generally and I am not sure if it is the rules themselves or a financial concern about staffing to monitor that in and out process. Again, there are financial supports specifically provided in the context of the reopening grants and it is a significant payment. If the Deputy has more specific details I am happy to touch base with her subsequently on that.
