Joe O'Reilly (Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister of State for his reply. Does the Minister consider that with the physical building owned by the VEC, with classrooms, space and playing grounds, he should grant a roll number and allow the school to open with first-year students? I appreciate his comments on funding and arriving at public private partnership agreements later. Does the Minister of State agree with allowing the school to open? Would that not be necessary in light of the commitment last spring?
