Mr. Hubert Loftus:

I am conscious of time at this committee meeting. We discussed the approach we take earlier with Deputy Cannon. We are doing a lot of PE hall delivery as part of our project roll-out. This is done for new schools and large-scale refurbishment and extension projects. Let me give the Deputy the national context, although I know he has a local remit. Since 2020, my job as head of the planning and building unit has entailed a national remit covering 4,000 schools. About 54 PE halls are being delivered. I am referring to projects being completed, in construction and going to construction over the course of this year. We are delivering a lot and prioritising core classroom accommodation as part of our additional accommodation scheme. Certainly, we are very conscious that some schools do not have PE hall access but over 95% of schools either have a hall or have one nearby. That is the territory we are in.
