This is essentially an operational matter for the Health and Safety Authority. However, I am advised that the total numbers of inspections by the Authority of schools in 2006, both as educational establishments per se and in relation to construction, maintenance and allied work, are set out in the following table.

I have been advised that the corresponding data for 2007 could not be collated in the time available and I have asked the Authority to forward any further data on the matter that may be available, to me and to the Deputy as soon as possible.
