I thank Deputy Nolan for raising this issue. I agree with her that school caretakers and secretaries are crucial parts of school communities. We all see this as we travel around the country and in schools in our own communities. I will certainly talk to the Minister for Education about the ancillary services grant and the impact the Deputy believes this is having on schools in her community and ask her to revert to the Deputy.
