I propose to take Questions Nos. 733 and 734 together.

As the Deputy will be aware, my Department contacted approximately 900 schools in September 2007 who were renting temporary accommodation and asked them to complete a questionnaire regarding the stock of temporary accommodation in their schools. My Department is in the process of compiling this information.

I will write to the Deputy in relation to this survey and the information gathered, as it relates to the issues he has raised.
