Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

Theoretically, there should be no justification but such is the reality. Has the Minister any way of responding to the challenges faced by schools in areas with huge demand for places? The parents in these areas want their children to attend local schools but classrooms are too small to accommodate them. Is an emergency response possible for these areas? For the sake of the children concerned, the Department needs to move more quickly.
