Fiona O'Loughlin (FF), Administrative Panel

I appreciate that.
I thank the Minister of State for his clarification and for his support. I suggest that he come to visit St. Anne's some day, either on his way up or back down to the wonderful metropolis of Coiscéim. He would be most welcome to come just off the Curragh roundabout to see St. Anne's and the very dedicated and committed staff. The current situation is not sustainable. The students of St. Anne's deserve to be educated in a safe, adequately resourced and fit-for-purpose environment. I take on board what the Minister of State said in relation to the outstanding information required and I commit to working with the principal and board of management to ensure that it is submitted as quickly as possible. I will certainly let the Minister of State know when that information has been put in, because I know he takes a personal interest in these matters.
