Chapter 8 - Management of the Schools Estate (7 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: In other words, and the point was raised earlier, where land is not zoned in the county development plan and the next one might be five years away, generally, the local authority members in an area will facilitate, where possible, and it would make sense by way of a material contravention.

Chapter 8 - Management of the Schools Estate (7 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: It is good that this is happening and that there is this kind of joined-up thinking. Can Mr. Loftus come back to the Committee of Public Accounts? We will probably have a recommendation that this overarching agreement is expedited because it has been highlighted twice. It was 13 years ago now, and it is important that it is done. We will go back to the special educational needs...

Chapter 8 - Management of the Schools Estate (7 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: That is fine. With regard to how they are allocated, I know there are always debates about this issue and the inspector over that section, Mr. Hislop, outlined the criteria and how the assessment is done. I want to highlight with regard to the allocation of funding for such schools that, as I see it, there are different levels of need and there are situations where children's level of...

Chapter 8 - Management of the Schools Estate (7 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: It is good to hear that. I have been in units in special schools where children had special needs. While I do not want to be parochial about it, I could not go home today with a clear conscience not having raised that. The level of need in Kolbe is far higher. It has an extra three or four pupils coming in this September. I do not need to remind Mr. Loftus about the building, which is of...

With regard to sanctions, the second part of the letter mentions that for the non-achievement of network builds and associated milestones within the time limit determined in the contract the delay payment arising can only be calculated once the respective milestone is complete. It states that in the event of...

Brian Stanley: The original target for premises to be passed by the end of January this year was 115,000. Then the revised plan was 60,000. These are premises to be passed and not connected. The number being connected is far smaller. Something that concerns me is that when the legislation was going through the House, I raised this issue and so did a number of other people with the then Minister, Deputy...
