My Department has been in direct contact with the school referred to by the Deputy regarding the recent fire.

My Department expects that the school's insurers will fund the cost of replacing the accommodation damaged in the fire, including the cost of providing interim accommodation to facilitate the school's operation from 1 September next. My Department will continue to liaise with the school and to monitor developments.
