I thank Mr. Ó Foghlú for that clarification. If I am correct in my understanding of what was said to Deputy Costello earlier, it is enrolment at a particular time that determines the number of teachers. That is an acute issue in smaller schools. It is not how many children are in the school at the beginning of September that counts, but the number that were enrolled previously. Is that correct?
