The area north of the Royal Canal has seen a massive expansion in the number of homes. Building has been taking place for the last number of years and a lot more land is zoned for construction. The number of children in the area is phenomenal. At the last census, hundreds of children under six were recorded. Nevertheless, there has been no proper planning, once again, for Pelletstown Educate Together national school which has not even reached the prefab state and must bus children to a neighbouring school down the road. Can the Minister update the House on the latest position?
