Mr. John Curtis:

On funding and the voluntary schools sector, there are two aspects to it from our point of view. Traditionally, by virtue of the fact that the voluntary schools tend to be older than other schools in the system, improving the fabric of existing buildings is a major issue for us. There is some catching up that needs to be done there. I am delighted to hear Mr. Loftus speak about what needs to be done in the context of existing stock. The emphasis over recent years has understandably been on the demographic surge. On the broader funding issue, I am straying slightly into an area that we might deal with tomorrow. I must apologise as I cannot be here tomorrow; I have to attend a graduation.
