It is clear from what the Minister of State said that there will not be any mandatory charges for day pupils. The Minister can take it from me that there is a real need for this school in that area. A crisis would have occurred this year were it not for the fact that Meath Vocational Education Committee was flexible about Laytown, but that situation was not going to continue. This is fantastic news for the community in Stamullen, Gormanston and the surrounding areas.
