Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

It is my understanding that, according to legislation, children must stay on the roll book of their primary school until they go onto the roll book of a post-primary school. Will the Minister confirm this is the case? This means children should be automatically tracked as they move from primary to second level. In effect, primary schools should retain children on their roll books until they have enrolled in a post-primary school. In this way, we should be able to identify the children who have not transferred.
