I wish to inform the Deputy that I have been in discussions with all the education partners, which included Pre-Budget matters.

I met with the Joint Managerial Body which represents all voluntary secondary schools, including fee charging schools.

I received their Pre-Budget 2015 submissions, which covered the matters raised by the Deputy.

The Deputy will appreciate that I cannot at this stage anticipate any specific decisions the Government may take in the next Budget.
