I accept that this topic is close to the Deputy's heart and that she has raised it previously. Education is part of the Government's islands strategy. On resettlement, I understand that the opportunities that are available are being considered. Mr. Hubert Loftus, who is here with me, is head of the Department's planning and building unit. The Department looks at the numbers and the viability. Notwithstanding that, particular consideration is given to the islands in the overall strategy because they are a unique part of our culture and we want them to be viable.

We have successfully looked at the role of technology on the education side of things.
