I thank the Minister of State for his reply on behalf of the Minister for Education and Skills, Deputy Ruairí Quinn. The school in question is preparing its appeal which I understand has almost been finalised. I hope common sense will prevail, as the school wants to continue to operate. It is already operating in difficult circumstances. I have outlined the position of disadvantage in the town and that the school is also providing an education for 24 asylum seeker children living in the town. I am glad the Minister of State has said cognisance will be taken of local circumstances.
