Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

School Closures: Discussion with Minister for Education and Skills

3:30 pm

Mr. Hubert Loftus:

To come back to what Deputy Thomas Byrne said, my priority in the past two weeks was getting the schools back into operation, dealing with the initial assessments and the implementation of measures. That was our immediate priority. Separately we have initiated legal proceedings against Western Building Systems in the context of fire safety measures. All of the structural issues that have come through, including building controls, will feed into our engagement with the Office of the Chief State Solicitor.
