Helen McEntee (FG), Meath East

I thank the Deputy for his question. In the past four years, almost €6 billion has been spent on capital investment in education. This includes opening new schools, expanding existing schools and using modular buildings where required. This is in response to the demand that exists and the increasing numbers of students going into primary and post-primary schools. We are committed to making sure this expansion continues and that every child gets access to the place they deserve in primary or post-primary school. I will work with all Deputies and every county to make sure the projects being developed go ahead, the need is met as soon as possible, and every child is accommodated.
