I thank the Minister of State for her reply. It is quite clear that there is a difficulty now in that the school will have to go back and seek further planning permission for a temporary, modular-type facility. That will obviously result in a significant time lapse in terms of the school getting through the planning process. As I stated earlier, there is an urgent need for a school in the area as a consequence of the facility in which the school is currently housed not meeting health and safety requirements. I ask the Minister of State to pass my comments on to the Minister for Education and Skills.
