My Department maintains a register of patrons. The Education Act 1998 (Section 8) provides that the register may be amended in respect of a school on the application of the existing registered patron. No such application has been received in respect of the schools referred to by the Deputy.

The information requested in relation to the current patronage of these schools will be forwarded directly to the Deputy.
