I propose to take Questions Nos. 469 and 470 together.

As of 13 May, 5,843 Ukrainian pupils have been enrolled in schools across Ireland. Out of that figure 3,968 of these pupils have been accommodated in primary schools while 1,875 pupils have enrolled in post-primary schools.

I am sure the Deputy can appreciate that I cannot provide statistics on school planning area, electoral area or by school at this time due to the sensitive nature of this data. Enrolment data by county is given in the table below.
