The Deputy should be aware that the DES report was completed in October 2010. Also, the Deputy is advised that the HSE report to which he has referred was not published. It is a condition of my Department's recognition of the school that the recommendations of both reports are implemented. The School currently enjoys provisional recognition from my Department.

The Board of Management of school in question committed to fully implementing the recommendations of both the HSE and the subsequent DES report. These recommendations incorporate the plans and policies referred to by the Deputy. My Department has remained in regular contact with the Principal and the Board of Management of this school. The Board of Management of the school has advised DES that all recommendations have been or are being implemented in full. My Department will continue to closely monitor progress in this regard.
