Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

One child who does not have a school place is one child too many. While I do not know the background to the individual case, as far as I am concerned, that child should be provided for. I know the Minister will agree with me it is within the capacity of the Department of Education to provide for that child. I do not have the details of the case, but if the Deputy wants to share them with me afterwards, I will see what I can do.
