I thank the Minister for that. We are very keen to get a timeline on this, as she can see, in order that we can reassure the parents and the teachers as well as the children, who asked me about this at a meeting recently. One parent I spoke to has a child with special needs and she just cannot understand why the sibling cannot be on the same side as her. I ask that this be expedited as quickly as possible in order that money can be saved and that, once and for all, we can have a permanent location for this school. The school is on a journey of real success in the demand there has been for it. That is reflective of the parents and the teachers and the good standard of education that is delivered there. I ask the Minister to expedite the process, identify the site as quickly as possible and proceed with it on that basis in order that certainty can be given to the families, the children and the teachers who are working under extremely difficult conditions.
