The school sees itself as a special case. It is a model of integration and co-operation and one that can be held up as an example to other communities where there is xenophobia and paranoia regarding the presence of non-nationals. The school demonstrates that it is possible to have a merger of identities and ethnic backgrounds, and to have children playing, working, being educated and living together. I ask the Minister of State to bring this urgent and special case to the attention of his colleague and amend the decision taken by the Department that even architectural planning cannot go ahead. It is surely possible, notwithstanding the state of the public finances, to at least allow planning to go ahead in order that, when finance comes on stream, the school can be seen for what it is – an urgent priority.
