I also wish to send my solidarity to the school community in the north inner city of Dublin. The events of last Thursday, where three children and the teacher were so viciously attacked, have gone to the heart of so many people around the country. We all want to send our solidarity and our best wishes to everyone in that community who suffered so much as a consequence of these events. I wish a speedy recovery to those who were the victims of the attack and to the wider school community that has suffered such trauma as a consequence of what happened.

As it happens, this morning I am raising another Scoil Mhuire, in Carrick-on-Shannon. I would like to hear the Minister's position on the development of a new campus for the school. There is a need to get this built as quickly as possible, and I would like to hear about the extent of the engagement the Minister and her Department have had with the staff and management of the school.
