Question 52: To ask the Minister for Education and Science if she will give a commitment that all schools to be progressed under the new public private partnership scheme announced by her recently will ensure that school management authorities have the final say on the location, content and availability of vending machines on school property; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Vending machines may be placed in schools at the discretion of the School's Management Authority and are currently installed in many post-primary schools. It is my intention that under my Department's new PPP programme the contract will provide that the school management authorities will have the final say on the location, content and availability of vending machines.
