I proposed to take Questions Nos. 158 and 159 together.
I can confirm that my Department has received a proposal directly from the schools, referred to in the details supplied by the Deputy, relating to a proposed reorganisation of the schools. My Department has not received any correspondence from the Patron regarding the above proposals or in respect of a proposal regarding divestment.
My Department has indicated that we will seek to liaise further with the schools following completion of ongoing demographic exercises.
