I wish to advise the Deputy that the patron of the school in question has confirmed that the school has sufficient accommodation to cater for its needs. The question of additional accommodation therefore does not arise.

An analysis of the area in question shows that the existing school providers can cater for the level of demand in the area. The Forward Planning Section of my Department will continue to monitor demographic data for all areas of the country to ensure emerging needs are met in a timely manner.
